This was due to the broad portfolio of solutions offered by the company in a dynamic government market, as well as by the growing enterprise demand for cloud-based cybersecurity solutions. The rapid expansion of IoT connectivity for industrial applications is another factor that has led to an increase in identity, IoT and cybersecurity solutions, and services. In December 2018, the company got new contracts with digitizing government processes such as UK e-passport. The company has a stronghold of the e-visa market and is expected to increase its market share as a part of the Thales Group.
