Evolving global politics, the threat of terrorism and various economic factors have all assisted in shaping the size and segmentation of the perimeter intrusion detection market we observe today.

Recent independent research reveals that North America and Europe lead the way in defence and perimeter security expenditure. However, opportunities for growth exist in Asia and the Middle East as these economies are rapidly developing.

The non-residential perimeter security fencing market is the most relevant to security professionals as it relates to sites such as airports, military installations and prisons. These facilities contain a wide variety of fence types and environmental situations, posing challenges for security systems providers. Numerous cases exist where inadequate perimeter security at such sites have resulted in damage to infrastructure and possible threat to human life.

A sample of high profile security breaches along with key reasons for perimeter security investment can be found in The Boundaries of Security report.
