Physical Security Market size worth around $150 Bn by 2027

Published Date: January 28, 2021

Physical Security Market size is expected to reach USD 150 billion by 2027, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.

The rise in the number of terrorist attacks in developed economies has stressed the need for the implementation of efficient physical security solutions. For instance, in May 2019, there was a shooting attack at a municipal building in Virginia, U.S. Similarly, in August 2019, there was a firing at a Walmart store in Texas, U.S. This has encouraged government authorities, large retailers, and commercial complex owners to strengthen their security systems for ensuring protection of assets, visitors, and staff. Government authorities are increasingly employing physical security solutions to protect the infrastructure, confidential documents, and employees. Large retailers adopting sophisticated safety measures will also propel the physical security market growth.

The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had a negative impact on the industry in 2020. Government organizations across the globe imposed stringent lockdown to prevent the spread of the virus. Restrictions imposed on travel resulted in declined demand for physical security solutions from the transportation sector. The temporary closure of large shopping malls also hampered the physical security market statistics. However, the resumption of industrial activities after relaxations in lockdowns in the second half of 2020 is expected to support the industry outlook. Gradual increase in the number of domestic and international travelers is fueling the market in 2021.

High demand from the modernizing BFSI sector is propelling physical security market

Security is of paramount importance to the banking industry. Anti-social elements target banks as they handle large amounts of cash and other valuables. High-end protection from thieves is extremely crucial for large banks with geographically dispersed branches. Video surveillance software enables authorities to monitor several branches from a single location. As pro-active security is vital, the BFSI sector employs a network of cameras for real-time monitoring of different departments.

With centralized video management platform and advanced network infrastructure, videos from several branches can be transmitted in real-time to a unified location, making the risk management more efficient. Market players in the BFSI sector also employ high performance access control solutions to restrict the entry of unauthorized personnel. The remodeling of the financial sector with the adoption of advanced security technologies will drive the market revenue.
