Hardware Encryption Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report (2025-2034)

The global hardware encryption market size was approximately USD 321.08 Million in 2024 . The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 18.70% in the forecast period of 2025-2034, reaching a value of around USD 1782.87 Million by 2034 .

Key Trends in the Market

Hardware encryption refers to the usage of processors and hardware components to keep sensitive data safe. This is done by the process of encryption, decryption, and key generation using integrated circuits (IC) that are designed to handle the device algorithms.

• Hardware encryption uses a separate and dedicated processor to ensure the safety of data, due to which it is increasingly adopted by large-sized businesses. The cost-effectiveness, tamper-resistant key storage, high throughput capacities, and faster algorithm processing are also boosting the usage of hardware encryption in different end-use sectors, including IT and telecom and healthcare.
• Some of the major hardware encryption market trends include the surging development of smart cities and the digitalisation of various sectors, driving the requirement for secure transfer and storage of data.
• Increasing regulatory compliances aimed at ensuring data protection in sectors such as finance and healthcare, among others, drive the hardware encryption market demand. Such sectors also face an increased risk of cyberattacks, which is expected to boost the implementation of encryption hardware solutions to ensure the integrity of customer records and adhere to strict compliance requirements.
