The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing connected car technologies, increase in vehicle digitization, adoption of biometric vehicle access, regulatory standards for vehicle security, rise in cybersecurity concerns for connected vehicles. Major trends in the forecast period include development of advanced vehicle encryption systems, integration of artificial intelligence in security algorithms, expansion of remote vehicle monitoring, application of blockchain for secure vehicle data, evolution of multi-layered authentication in vehicle access systems.

The rise in cyberattacks is expected to significantly boost the growth of the vehicle security system market in the future. A cyberattack is a deliberate attempt by individuals or organizations to compromise the information systems of others. As automotive innovation advances, cybersecurity has become a pressing concern. Vehicle security systems protect electronic systems, communication networks, software, and data collected by the latest intelligent cars from potential threats. If a vehicle's computer systems are not adequately secured, hackers can steal sensitive data or even gain control of the vehicle. For instance, in July 2024, data published by the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), a US-based non-profit organization, revealed that cybersecurity threats in the automotive sector have intensified, with data breaches increasing by 72% between 2021 and 2023. Ransomware attacks surged by 68% in 2023, with 40% of affected companies paying ransoms exceeding $1 million, resulting in over six days of downtime. Consequently, the rise in cyberattacks is driving the growth of the vehicle security system market.

An increase in vehicle ownership is anticipated to drive the growth of the vehicle security system market in the future. Vehicle ownership refers to the legal possession and control of a motorized vehicle, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and other self-propelled vehicles. Vehicle security systems are essential for vehicle owners, providing peace of mind and protection. These systems help safeguard vehicles against theft, break-ins, and vandalism, thereby minimizing the risk of asset loss. They are vital for maintaining vehicle safety and security, enhancing the overall ownership experience. For instance, in May 2024, statistics released by the Department for Transport, a UK-based ministerial department, indicated that by the end of December 2023, the UK had 41.2 million licensed vehicles, reflecting a 1% increase from December 2022. This figure includes 1,015,000 licensed zero-emission vehicles, representing a 47% rise, of which 931,000 were zero-emission cars, marking a 48% increase. Therefore, the growing vehicle ownership is propelling the vehicle security system market.

Technological advancements represent a prominent trend in the vehicle security system market, with major companies focusing on developing innovative solutions. An example of this trend is Ford's collaboration with ADT Security Services in January 2022 to establish a $100 million joint venture called Canopy. This venture aims to prevent vehicle theft through the use of sensors and artificial intelligence (AI). Canopy provides an aftermarket security product that utilizes AI to identify and report credible threats, triggering alarms in response to signs of metal cutting, breaking glass, or suspicious sounds or motion near a vehicle. The primary objective is to prevent vehicle theft proactively.

Major companies in the vehicle security systems market are launching innovative products to maintain competitiveness, such as Volvo Cars' Front Short-Range Assist, designed to enhance the safety of cyclists and pedestrians. Introduced in May 2023, this safety system uses radar and camera technology to detect potential collisions with cyclists or pedestrians in front of the truck, issuing warnings to the driver when necessary. The system also features a door opening warning system, alerting the driver if there is an approaching pedestrian, cyclist, or car from behind when the door is opened. Other features include Intelligent Speed Assist and Tire Pressure Monitoring System.

In December 2022, Aptiv Plc, an Ireland-based technology and mobility architecture firm, acquired Wind River from TPG for $3.5 billion. This acquisition aims to enhance Aptiv's software development for intelligent edge systems by integrating Wind River's technology, which is utilized in over two billion devices, into Aptiv's Smart Vehicle Architecture. This integration is expected to facilitate comprehensive vehicle lifecycle management and positively impact Aptiv's earnings per share in 2023. Wind River Software, a US-based company, specializes in providing software for intelligent systems, including embedded systems, cloud software, and real-time operating systems.
