This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.
The mass transit security market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $42.88 billion in 2024 to $46.13 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to public transportation systems, demand for innovative security solutions, increased investments in advanced surveillance, increased access control systems, increased biometrics, security breaches.
The mass transit security market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $58.69 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing public incidents, deployment of biometric identification systems, terrorism threats, public awareness and cooperation, geopolitical tensions. Major trends in the forecast period include AI-driven threat detection, enhanced biometric identification, internet of things (IoT) security, mobile security solutions, drone detection and mitigation.
The growing threats and security concerns are expected to drive the growth of the mass transit security market in the coming years. Security threats and concerns refer to any potential risk or harmful event that can exploit vulnerabilities and cause harm to individuals. Public transit systems may be vulnerable to criminal activities such as theft, assaults, and vandalism. Mass transit security plays a vital role in addressing these threats by implementing measures to safeguard passengers, infrastructure, and operations from various risks. For example, in April 2024, the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, a UK-based government body, reported that 22% of businesses and 14% of charities faced cybercrime in the past year. This rises to 45% for medium-sized businesses, 58% for large businesses, and 37% for high-income charities. Additionally, among the 50% of businesses and 32% of charities reporting cybersecurity breaches or attacks, over two-fifths (44% of businesses and 42% of charities) ultimately fell victim to cybercrime. Therefore, the increasing threats and security concerns are driving the growth of the mass transit security market.
Major players in the mass transit security market are focusing on the development of new technologies, such as AI-powered video analytics platforms.
