The market for Behavioral Biometrics is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 24.1% from 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach the market value of around US$ 4,093.2 Mn by 2027.

Behavioral biometrics is the study associated with the measure of uniquely identifying and measurable patterns in human activities. It’s an evolving technology that authenticates users based on patterns in their behavior. Basically, it identifies unique, individual regularities in the ways that people type and move. Behavioral biometrics technologies authenticate continuously, evaluating a user’s ongoing interaction with their mobile device or computer in real-time, unlike traditional authentication methods, which authenticate only when access is initiated. Behavioral biometric tools run on the actual mobile devices and computer systems connected to an organization’s data and a behavioral profile is automatically generated for each user with valid access. The generated behavioral profile reflects the distinct ways in which he/she interacts with critical systems like gestures including keystrokes, screen swipes, and mouse movements. Once a user’s profile is learned, their respective gestures are monitored silently, in real-time, in order to continuously authenticate identity. If the situation occurs, where behavioral patterns don’t match the profile, the system immediately prompts for other Deployment Models of authentication, block access, or lock down the entire device.

Market Dynamics

The rising online transactions and fraudulent activities across the globe in almost every industrial sector including BFSI, retail and e-commerce, healthcare, government and defense, and telecommunications among others are supporting the demand for behavioral biometrics. The increasing need for a multi-layered security approach in the finance vertical because the risk of data breaches is higher in the financial sector is further bolstering market growth. Additionally, enhanced security as compared to static biometrics and higher compatibility with emerging AI technologies are the factors projected to provide potential opportunities throughout the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.

On the other side, low cybersecurity budget and high installation cost associated with the behavioral biometrics software are projected to hinder the growth to an extent.

North America accounted for the maximum revenue share in the global market

In 2019, North America has the potential revenues share (%) in the behavioral biometrics market and the region is projected estimated to exhibit consistent growth over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.
