Integration of IoT in physical security: emerging market trend
IoT is a technology that assists in accessing physical objects via the internet. IoT connects a wide range of objects ranging from sensor-powered microcontrollers to devices powered by processors. These objects are interconnected in a way, which makes it suitable to collect and analyze data in real-time. Therefore, IoT connects objects or things that can be accessed anytime and from anywhere.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio for research on IT security, “IoT is used for wireless video surveillance for capturing videos and transmitting them to the devices over the wireless network. This aids in getting immediate responses for real-time decision-making. The rising demand for improving the efficiency of places such as waste management plants, energy plants, and water management plants will contribute to the increasing installation of IoT-based physical security devices.”
Global market opportunities
In terms of regional dominance, the Americas led the global physical security market with a share of approximately 44%. During the forecast period, the market share of the Americas is predicted to decrease due to the declining use of physical security in North America. This region was an early adopter of physical security because of which it has reached a saturation point. This has led to decreased spending on existing surveillance and security devices. However, the market share of Europe is anticipated to increase during the forecast period because of the increase in public-sector spending.
