Global Contactless Smart Cards market 2014-2018 with ASK SA, Gemalto, Giesecke & Devrient, Morpho & Oberthur Technologies Dominating
M2 - Tue Jul 01, 8:38AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/w686wh/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Contactless Smart Cards market 2014-2018 with ASK SA, Gemalto, Giesecke & Devrient, Morpho & Oberthur Technologies Dominating" report to their offering. The Global Contactless Smart Card market will grow at a CAGR of 33.5% to 2018 The growth of the Global Contactless Smart Cards market is driven by several factors, of which the growing need for a tamper-free system is one of the major drivers. Generally, cards embedded with magnetic tapes only store information about end-users' accounts. These cards can be easily tampered with, resulting in loss of information or data. However, contactless smart cards store information that can only be accessed with a pin code, which is difficult to decode, thereby protecting end-users' data. An NFC-enabled device can operate in reader/writer, peer-to-peer or card emulation modes. While making mobile contactless payments, NFC-enabled mobile devices operate in a card emulation mode that appears as a traditional contactless smart card to an external reader. A smart card chip in mobile devices helps store payment information, protects them, and enables secure transactions. Contactless payments and ticketing using NFC-enabled devices allow secure monetary transactions. The increase in the adoption of NFC-based payments is thus supporting the growth of the Global Contactless Smart Cards market. Further, the report states that high initial deployment and replacement cost is one of the major challenges faced by the vendors in the market. Regions such as South America and the APAC region have limited vendor penetration and few local players. As a result, the market is controlled by a small group of vendors, leading to low competition. This low competition is resulting in high initial deployment and replacement costs.

Multifactor Authentication Market in South Korea and Japan 2014-2018: One of the Major Challenges is the High Cost Involved in Implementation
M2 - Tue Mar 25, 7:17AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/58z53v/multifactor) has announced the addition of the "Multifactor Authentication Market in South Korea and Japan 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan to grow at a CAGR of 31.4 and 31.3 percent in South Korea and Japan respectively over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market's growth is increased incidences of security attacks in Government departments. The Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan has also been witnessing increased collaboration between the IT security vendors of these two countries. However, the high implementation costs of multifactor authentication solutions could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. Key vendors dominating this space include EMC Corp., Entrust Inc., Gemalto NV, SafeNet Inc., and VASCO Data Security International Inc. Other vendors mentioned in the report are Authentify Inc., CA Technologies Inc., Deepnet Security Ltd., Equifax, ID Control, SecureAuth Corp., SecurStar GmbH, SecurEnvoy plc, and Quest Software Inc., Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: With the increasing competition in the Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan, vendors are expanding their overseas to tap the untapped potential market. For instance, in 2012, the South Korea Knowledge Security Industry Association and Singapore Infocomm Technology Federation signed a memorandum of understanding to promote IT security companies in both countries. Some vendors, especially in developing regions, have little knowledge about managed security services. Therefore, most of these vendors are increasingly relying on their partners to deploy such solutions. According to the report, the increase in security attacks on government departments is one of the major factors driving the market. Government departments are currently adopting the latest technologies such as multifactor authentication, which provides two or three levels of security, to replace manual processes of managing and controlling data. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the high cost involved in the implementation of multifactor authentication solutions. Although these solutions are associated with several potential benefits, certain organizations refrain from investing in them because of their high cost.

Multifactor Authentication Market in South Korea and Japan 2014-2018: One of the Major Challenges is the High Cost Involved in Implementation
M2 - Tue Mar 25, 7:17AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/58z53v/multifactor) has announced the addition of the "Multifactor Authentication Market in South Korea and Japan 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan to grow at a CAGR of 31.4 and 31.3 percent in South Korea and Japan respectively over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market's growth is increased incidences of security attacks in Government departments. The Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan has also been witnessing increased collaboration between the IT security vendors of these two countries. However, the high implementation costs of multifactor authentication solutions could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. Key vendors dominating this space include EMC Corp., Entrust Inc., Gemalto NV, SafeNet Inc., and VASCO Data Security International Inc. Other vendors mentioned in the report are Authentify Inc., CA Technologies Inc., Deepnet Security Ltd., Equifax, ID Control, SecureAuth Corp., SecurStar GmbH, SecurEnvoy plc, and Quest Software Inc., Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: With the increasing competition in the Multifactor Authentication market in South Korea and Japan, vendors are expanding their overseas to tap the untapped potential market. For instance, in 2012, the South Korea Knowledge Security Industry Association and Singapore Infocomm Technology Federation signed a memorandum of understanding to promote IT security companies in both countries. Some vendors, especially in developing regions, have little knowledge about managed security services. Therefore, most of these vendors are increasingly relying on their partners to deploy such solutions. According to the report, the increase in security attacks on government departments is one of the major factors driving the market. Government departments are currently adopting the latest technologies such as multifactor authentication, which provides two or three levels of security, to replace manual processes of managing and controlling data. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the high cost involved in the implementation of multifactor authentication solutions. Although these solutions are associated with several potential benefits, certain organizations refrain from investing in them because of their high cost.

Need for Extra Layer of Security Protection to Drive Demand for Multi-Factor Authentication, According to a New Trend Report Published by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
PRWeb - Wed Jan 08, 9:15AM CST
Follow us on LinkedIn - Multi-factor authentication is a layered security system, which is used for the protection of online financial information of customers. This system adds two or more security layers to secure the user from external threats. Two-Factor Authentication is the most commonly used multi-factor authentication system that finds applications in several sectors including online commerce, government and financial services, healthcare, aerospace and defence, and telecommunications and electronics. The most common use of this technology is in the internet banking sector and online gaming services. Growing demand for foolproof authentication systems which offer protection against errors and duplicity is expected to drive growth in the market in the coming years. Use of expensive four and five factor authentication models is however currently limited to confidential projects in research, and government-based applications.
