Post-Quantum Cryptography Market Report 2025: Vendor Strategies In Focus As PQC Market Evolves


(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) The PQC market is poised for rapid growth due to the impending threat of quantum computing, geopolitical incentives for data protection, and government-backed standards. Opportunities span software, hardware, and services, as major tech and cybersecurity firms strategize PQC adoption and integration.

Dublin, Sept. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Post-Quantum Cryptography 2025: The Age of Deployment" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.

The PQC market is taking off fast, driven by the imminence of cryptographically relevant quantum computers, the growing geopolitical and financial gains to be had from breaking into databases, etc., and government endorsed standards and requirements to protect organizations against "quantum spying." For these reasons, the analyst believes that the PQC market - software, hardware and services - is about to take off dramatically. The analyst has tracked the quantum cybersecurity industry for several years and in its work has covered PQC, QKD and QRNGs.

This latest report on the evolving PQC markets includes 10-year market forecasts based on analysis of how fast different end-user markets will implement PQC. These forecasts will include breakouts by end-user type and type of PQC product or service. They will also discuss vendor strategies for PQC being explored at the hyperscale technology/cloud companies, at traditional cybersecurity firms and at pure play PQC and cybersecurity firms.
