Perimeter Security Market Report 2026

The perimeter security market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $77.63 billion in 2025 to $85.96 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing security threats to critical infrastructure, expansion of surveillance infrastructure, rising adoption of access control systems, growing urbanization, increased government security spending.

The perimeter security market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $127.26 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in smart city security, rising demand for automated threat detection, expansion of critical infrastructure protection programs, growing integration of AI and analytics, increasing focus on cyber-physical security convergence. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing deployment of ai-based video analytics, rising adoption of integrated security platforms, growing use of smart sensors and iot devices, expansion of remote perimeter monitoring solutions, enhanced focus on threat detection accuracy.

The growing threat of terrorism and cross-border intrusions is expected to drive the expansion of the perimeter security market in the coming years. Terrorism involves the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, particularly against civilians, to achieve political aims. Cross-border intrusions describe the entry of a unit, force, or military asset into another nation’s designated operational area, territorial waters, or airspace for surveillance or intelligence purposes. The risks associated with terrorism and cross-border incursions are increasing as various nations and groups seek to exert power and advance their objectives. Perimeter security serves as the first layer of protection for safeguarding critical assets, data, and people through the use of advanced technologies. For example, in September 2025, the Home Office - a UK government department - reported that in the year ending June 30, 2025, a total of 83 individuals were prosecuted for terrorism-related offenses, five more than in the year ending June 30, 2024. Therefore, the rising threat of terrorism and cross-border intrusions is expected to stimulate growth in the perimeter security market.

Major companies in the perimeter security market are advancing next-generation perimeter intrusion detection systems to improve perimeter protection for high-security locations and critical infrastructure. These next-generation systems are sophisticated security solutions that utilize cutting-edge technologies, including sensor integration, to offer improved real-time monitoring and detection of unauthorized breaches or intrusions along physical boundaries. For example, in June 2023, Axis Communications, a Sweden-based network technology firm, unveiled the AXIS D2110-VE security radar system. This product employs radar technology to monitor movement along a perimeter and can be integrated with existing security cameras and other monitoring systems. It delivers high accuracy in detecting intruders while reducing false alarms triggered by small animals or other irrelevant movements. These recent product launches highlight the evolution of the perimeter security market, marked by the integration of AI, improved detection systems, and enhanced adaptability to environmental conditions.

In May 2023, Johnson Controls, a technology company based in the US, merged with Qognify to enhance its security offerings by integrating AI-driven insights with comprehensive security management tools. By harnessing Qognify's capabilities, Johnson Controls aims to deliver robust perimeter security systems that enhance surveillance efficiency and threat detection, furthering their commitment to improving safety in various environments. Qognify is a US-based provider of video management and physical security solutions.
