Physical Security Market Trends: Insights You Need To Know

Written by Acre security | Jan 17, 2024 2:16:26 PM

The safety and security of people and assets are essential concerns for any organization or individuals. In recent years, the physical security market has experienced tremendous growth and evolving trends. With new types of threats and increased demand for advanced security systems, understanding the current market trends is crucial for security managers, integrators, and end-users.

In this blog, we will explore the latest trends, insights, and projections for the physical security market, based on recent market research by experts in the field.

1. Growing Demand for Integrated Security Solutions

The physical security market is experiencing a shift towards more integrated security solutions. With the increasing sophistication of security threats, many organizations are seeking comprehensive security solutions that incorporate various security components into a single system.

Integration of multiple systems such as access control, video surveillance, and alarms into a unified system, provides enhanced security measures and reduces the complexity of managing security operations. According to recent research, the demand for integrated security systems is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.7% from 2020 to 2025.

2. Increasing Adoption of Cloud-Based Physical Security Solutions

Cloud-based physical security solutions are increasingly becoming popular among organizations worldwide. Cloud-based solutions offer advantages such as flexibility, scalability, and cost-efficiency that traditional security systems cannot match. 

With cloud-based systems, users can access security data in real-time, from anywhere, and on any device, leading to more rapid response times. Furthermore, cloud-based security solutions offer more secure data storage, and disaster recovery options, and are easier to maintain.

Industry experts project that the cloud-based physical security market will grow at a CAGR of 17.8% from 2020 to 2027.

3. Emphasis on Cybersecurity in Physical Security Systems

As physical security systems become more connected and digitized, cybersecurity becomes a critical concern.

The integration of IoT (Internet of Things) and AI (Artificial Intelligence) capabilities into physical security systems increases their vulnerability to cyber-attacks. With incidents of cyber-attacks on physical security systems increasing globally, there is a growing need for secure physical security solutions.

According to recent research, the global physical security market's spending on cybersecurity is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.4% from 2020 to 2027.

4. Focus on User-Centric Physical Security Systems

Traditionally, physical security systems have been centered on protecting assets rather than people. However, a shift towards user-centric physical security solutions is emerging. The focus is increasingly geared towards user experience and employee safety within organizations. With this shift, physical security systems must balance security with user convenience and comfort. For example, systems that incorporate biometric authentication reduce the need for employees to carry access badges or remember passwords, providing a more seamless user experience.

Market analysts predict that the user-centric approach to physical security solutions is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2020 to 2025.
