These statistics provide vital evidence to the fact that identity and access management market share is likely to soar in the years to come.

The Internet of Things has already redefined the concept of identity management. As IoT moves beyond consumer mainstream wearables and into massive enterprise deployments, IT teams are paying more attention towards securing access to the networks that connect to valuable products, including smart grid hardware, factory equipment, and more. IAM and privileged access management (PAM) demands are expected to become more complicated, with tougher obstacles and exponentially more endpoints. In consequence, the requirement of a strong IAM solution would become more commonplace, thereby augmenting the overall IAM industry.
