Video Surveillance Market

Global Video Surveillance Market Size

The global video surveillance market was valued at USD 52.9 billion in 2024. The global market size is predicted to reach USD 60.84 billion in 2025 and USD 186.10 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 15% during the forecast period.

Video surveillance systems are gaining huge popularity in today's world. These systems can also be referred to as CCTV, which helps to record or monitor a specific area for security and safety purposes. The camera provides live footage options where one can monitor the footage in real-time or watch the record for reviews.  Video surveillance systems usually do not need a fixed wired installation and can work on batteries, solar panels, or power over Ethernet, unlike CCTV. Users can operate these systems without any worry from anywhere. In the present scenario, video surveillance is very important for security purposes, especially in areas where crime cases are increasing.  In the U.S., video surveillance systems helped identify criminals by providing critical evidence through the footage that was recorded earlier. Studies do find that video surveillance systems can help reduce crime cases by about 50% or more in an effective way. These systems, when installed in public hotspots, can help enhance security. Identification of improper behavioral changes through footage will help the authorities take necessary steps during the real-time monitoring of the footage in public places. Emerging countries like India have been taking proper measures to install video surveillance systems at every nook and corner. It is estimated that in India, there are around 2 million systems installed in 2023 for safety and security purposes. 

MARKET DRIVERS

The increasing prominence of the installation of cameras at public hotspots to provide safety to the public, especially women, is driving the growth rate of the video surveillance market.

Penetration of technologies like artificial intelligence is additionally to leverage the market’s share. The integration of artificial intelligence with video surveillance systems has made difficult tasks easy, and the capability of the systems is changing accordingly. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are evolving the capabilities of the systems and adding much more value to the analysis.  These systems embedded with the A.I. promote a hassle-free and promising environment over security. The systems are completely automated and can signal cases of anomalies where the person can take necessary actions to avoid any further risks associated with these changes. These systems are gaining huge popularity when compared with traditional cameras. A.I. integration ruled out the challenges like efforts of human operators to monitor and send signals that may be linked to the errors and time constraints. Therefore, the launch of video surveillance systems with the most advanced features is lavishing the market’s share. 

Government support for increasing surveillance, especially in high-risk areas, is ascribed to the rising growth rate of the market.

Continuous monitoring in high-risk areas is very important to take immediate action when there is a case of mishap. These activities, in real-time, will enhance the safety of the people in various ways. In recent years, the demand to install video surveillance systems, especially in metropolitan cities, has drastically increased both in residential and commercial buildings. Security management professionals and law enforcement mostly rely on advanced video surveillance systems to enhance operational activities. 

Nowadays, smart homes and smart cities are uniquely providing various features that offer high-security solutions. People in urban areas, especially in smart home residential areas, prefer high-security systems, where key companies are planning to install the systems according to their preferences, which boosts the growth rate of the market. These systems bring in the evidence and directly curb the number of crimes in smart cities with the impact of continuous monitoring through video surveillance. This factor greatly fuels the growth rate of the video surveillance market. 

MARKET RESTRAINTS

However, rising concern towards privacy is the major factor that is hindering the growth rate of the video surveillance market.

Many people have concerns over their privacy due to the installation of the cameras, but taking measures while installing these monitoring devices in proper places will create positive results. Other than this, with technological advancements in every sector, hacking is also becoming very easy, where protecting data from the hackers is a great challenge for key market players. Therefore, huge privacy concerns over the safety of personal data are solely degrading the market share. In addition, the growing incidences of poor image quality due to various technical issues during real-time surveillance are also hampering the growth rate of the market. 

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

The launch of innovative features in video surveillance, such as facial recognition, contactless access control, and others, is likely to create potential growth opportunities for the video surveillance market in the foreseeable years.

Growing investment in video surveillance systems for various aspects among government and non-government organizations is also meant to elevate the growth rate of the market. The trend to meet the untapped potential needs is especially likely to expand the market’s size. The rising number of thefts and criminal cases will also create scope for the video surveillance market in the coming years. For instance, in China, around 1.2 million theft crimes were recorded only in 2022, where the necessity to increase surveillance in public places to combat these statistics is greatly influencing government organizations to install monitoring systems. Ongoing research and development activities will add excellent features for video surveillance systems that make it easier to monitor complex environments and detect potential threats in three dimensions. Smart cameras will add fuel to the growth rate of the video surveillance market in the future. 

MARKET CHALLENGES

The lack of proper knowledge in storing data is a great challenge for the video surveillance market growth. There is a high chance of data loss if any real-time issue arises. Storing the data is a big challenge for the operators, as the data or the recordings might easily be lost if not secured properly. Therefore, the difficulty in recruiting highly professional people is slowly declining the growth rate of the video surveillance market.
