Video Surveillance Storage Market Report 2026

The video surveillance storage market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $32.39 billion in 2025 to $39.43 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising security surveillance adoption, increasing crime monitoring needs, growth in commercial surveillance infrastructure, expansion of public safety programs, rising digital video storage requirements.

The video surveillance storage market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $84.54 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing cloud surveillance deployments, rising demand for real time monitoring storage, growing need for scalable video storage capacity, expansion of smart city security initiatives, strengthening regulatory compliance storage needs. Major trends in the forecast period include growing deployment of high definition surveillance systems, rising shift toward cloud based video storage, increasing demand for long term data retention solutions, expansion of intelligent video analytics driven storage needs, strengthening focus on secure and reliable video archiving.

The threat of potential terrorist attacks is expected to support the growth of the video surveillance storage market going forward. Terrorist attacks involve deliberate acts of violence, typically carried out by non-state individuals or groups, intended to create fear, instability, or political, ideological, or religious pressure. Video surveillance storage systems play a vital role in counterterrorism by enabling the collection, storage, and analysis of critical video data used in investigating and responding to security incidents, including acts of terrorism. For instance, in January 2025, according to Euronews SA, a France-based television network, global conflicts intensified in 2024, with political violence rising by 25% compared to 2023, impacting one in eight people worldwide and resulting in approximately 223,000 deaths, alongside a 37% increase in total fatalities. Therefore, the rising incidence of terrorist-related violence is driving the growth of the video surveillance storage market.

Companies operating in the video surveillance storage market are increasingly introducing upgraded solutions to overcome limitations associated with traditional surveillance infrastructures. These new versions of video surveillance storage systems incorporate advanced technologies, higher storage capacities, and improved data management capabilities to efficiently handle and retrieve large volumes of video footage generated by modern surveillance environments. For example, 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 for video surveillance and analytics applications. This platform is capable of recording more than 10,000 video streams simultaneously within a single cluster while delivering 99.9999% system availability and reducing data center footprint by up to 80%. The updated software features a simplified user interface, automated deployment options, and enhanced system monitoring. By replacing traditional network video recorder (NVR) servers with a unified compute and storage architecture and using patented video data reduction technologies, the platform improves performance while lowering operational costs.

In December 2024, Longacre Group, a UK-based investment firm, acquired Veracity UK Limited for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition was intended to strengthen Longacre Group’s position in the video surveillance market by leveraging Veracity’s expertise in video transmission, storage, and display technologies for IP-based surveillance systems. Veracity UK Limited is a UK-based company that specializes in providing video storage solutions, connectivity products, and display systems for enterprise IP video surveillance applications.
