As a result, the demand for comprehensive and dependable security solutions in a world that is getting more complex and interconnected is expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The increasing demand for UHD video surveillance is an emerging trend in the market growth. With the advent of 4K video surveillance cameras, UHD video surveillance and security monitoring are anticipated to become popular choices. Additionally, it meets the demand for more storage space. It has a feature that can record continuously, which is similar to a conventional high-definition (HD) camera. However, this camera's average daily storage capacity for a 1080p recording at 15 frames per second (FPS) is 45 GB. Compared to a conventional closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera, this has nearly twice the bandwidth and storage capacity.
Physical security is more important because they have better processing capabilities, connection options, and support services. During the forecast period, this is anticipated to contribute to better monitoring of the business's premises. Thus, the increasing demand for UHD video surveillance is expected to help in the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The high initial investment is a major challenge impeding the market growth. Some businesses find it challenging to bear the initial cost of an IT infrastructure investment, which can reach tens of thousands of dollars. As a result, the industry has seen fewer new entrants. The amount spent on reputable vendors is also sharply rising. Additionally, the cost of replacing and upgrading software and physical security equipment is very high.
Furthermore, the growing demand for up-to-date professional expertise would result from the emergence of numerous new physical security technologies. Organizations spend a lot of money training employees if they lack professional expertise. Additionally, because there are few professionals who are proficient in new technologies, hiring them would be expensive for organizations. Hence, such factors will hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the hardware and software segment will be significant during the forecast period. Hardware includes various physical security items like alarms, access control systems, surveillance cameras, and more. These items are made to improve physical security measures, offer ongoing monitoring, and defend against potential dangers. The software includes a number of security options, including software for access control and video management. These solutions offer advanced analytics and reporting capabilities in addition to managing and watching over hardware devices.
