Surveillance Analytics in Security: A $4.3 Billion Growth Opportunity

Traditional surveillance can no longer keep up with the speed and complexity of today’s security threats. Public safety agencies, critical infrastructure operators, and enterprises need to manage everything from cyber-physical intrusions to data privacy compliance in real time.

That’s why the industry is shifting toward intelligent surveillance powered by AI analytics, edge computing, and sensor fusion. By integrating data from video cameras, thermal sensors, audio detectors, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, organizations can achieve immediate situational awareness and enable faster, more informed responses across environments.

This Frost Radar™ provides an in-depth evaluation of key industry participants ranging from global leaders to disruptive newcomers and showcases the technologies transforming modern surveillance.

Key Challenges Surveillance Analytics Providers Need to Solve

  • Ethical AI – Ensuring compliance with data privacy and fairness regulations

  • False Positives – Using behavioral analytics to improve accuracy

  • Legacy System Integration – Scaling modern solutions across outdated infrastructures

  • Edge Intelligence – Making fast, offline decisions with edge AI architecture

  • Sensor Fusion – Combining multiple data types for deeper insights
