The anticipated growth of the video surveillance storage market is driven by the expectation of possible terrorist attacks, emphasizing the crucial role of video surveillance storage in counterterrorism efforts. Terrorist attacks, intentional acts of violence perpetrated by non-state actors or groups, seek to create fear, panic, or political, ideological, or religious intimidation. Video surveillance storage is integral to counterterrorism initiatives, providing essential data for the investigation and analysis of security incidents, including terrorist attacks. As per the Global Terrorism Index by the Institute for Economics & Peace in 2023, terrorist attacks became more deadly in 2022, with an average of 1.7 deaths per attack compared to 1.3 deaths per attack in 2021. The increasing frequency of terrorist attacks is a significant driver for the video surveillance storage market.

The rise in cyberattacks is also poised to contribute to the growth of the video surveillance storage market. Cyberattacks involve deliberate and malicious attempts to exploit vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks, or digital devices for unauthorized access, disruption, damage, or theft of information and resources. Video surveillance storage plays a critical role in preventing cyberattacks on surveillance systems, ensuring data integrity, and safeguarding against unauthorized access to sensitive footage. According to data provided by Checkpoint in January 2023, global cyberattacks increased by 38% in 2022 compared to 2021. The growing threat of cyberattacks underscores the importance of robust video surveillance storage solutions.

Technological advancements are emerging as a significant trend in the video surveillance storage market. Leading companies are increasingly focusing on cloud-based video surveillance storage to ensure efficient and expansive storage solutions. With cloud-based storage, captured video footage is transferred to the cloud, providing virtually limitless storage capacity. For example, in June 2024, Blackmagic Design, an Australia-based digital camera manufacturer, partnered with Apple, a US-based technology company, to develop the first URSA Cine Immersive camera. This commercial camera system and editing software is specifically designed for Apple Immersive Video on the Apple Vision Pro. The camera features an integrated 8TB high-performance network storage system, capable of capturing over two hours of Blackmagic RAW in 8K stereoscopic 3D. This functionality enables editors to work on footage in real-time from remote locations, as the captured media can be instantly synced to Blackmagic Cloud and DaVinci Resolve media bins. Additionally, the camera supports the creation of small H.264 proxy files for quicker cloud uploads, promoting seamless collaborative workflows.

Major players in the video surveillance storage market are proactively addressing challenges faced by traditional video surveillance infrastructures through the innovation of new versions. These updated versions of video surveillance storage solutions incorporate advanced technologies, increased storage capacity, and improved data management capabilities to effectively handle and retrieve large volumes of video data in modern surveillance systems. In March 2023, Quantum Corporation, a US-based provider of solutions for video and unstructured data, launched version 5 of its Unified Surveillance Platform (USP) software. Specifically designed for video surveillance and analytics, the software is capable of recording over 10,000 video streams simultaneously on a single cluster. It achieves an impressive 99.9999% uptime while simultaneously reducing the data center footprint by up to 80%. The updated version introduces a simplified user experience, automated deployment models, and enhanced system monitoring. Notably, the USP replaces traditional Network Video Recorder (NVR) servers with a unified compute and storage platform, leveraging patented video data reduction techniques for optimal performance and cost-effectiveness. This innovation addresses the evolving needs of modern surveillance infrastructure.

In May 2022, Motorola Solutions Inc., a US-based provider of video equipment, telecommunications equipment, software, systems, and services, acquired Videotec S.p.A. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is intended to enhance its portfolio of fixed video cameras, solidifying the company's position as a global leader in video security solutions and fostering the innovation of technologies designed to withstand some of the most challenging conditions. This effort aims to protect individuals, enhance productivity, and support business continuity for essential industries worldwide. Videotec S.p.A. is an Italy-based provider of ruggedized video security solutions.
