Perimeter Intrusion Detection System Market Report 2026

The perimeter intrusion detection system market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $22.88 billion in 2025 to $27.07 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to widespread deployment in critical infrastructure, adoption of infrared and motion sensors, integration with legacy security systems, increased security spending by commercial facilities, regulatory mandates for perimeter security in sensitive sites.

The perimeter intrusion detection system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $48.13 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to adoption of AI-powered detection systems, growth in cloud-based monitoring services, integration with smart city initiatives, rising demand for wireless and networked sensor systems, expansion in industrial and commercial sectors. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of multi-layered perimeter defense solutions, increased deployment of video surveillance integrated pids, growing demand for smart fencing and barrier systems, expansion of perimeter protection in correctional facilities and industrial sites, integration of acoustic and seismic intrusion detection sensors.

The rising threat of terrorism is expected to drive the growth of the perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS) market going forward. Terrorism involves the use of violence or intimidation to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives, often targeting civilians or non-combatants. The threat is increasing due to growing political and ideological extremism, as radical groups exploit social and economic instability to recruit supporters and justify attacks against authorities or rival communities. Perimeter intrusion detection systems play a critical role in counterterrorism efforts by detecting unauthorized access along facility boundaries in real time, enabling rapid response to potential threats before they escalate. For instance, in February 2024, according to the Institute for Economics & Peace (IEP), total global deaths from terrorism rose to 8,352 in 2023, up from 6,823 in 2022. Therefore, the increasing threat of terrorism is driving demand for perimeter intrusion detection systems.

Key companies in the perimeter intrusion detection system market are developing advanced solutions such as fiber-optic sensor-based security to enhance detection accuracy and provide continuous, tamper-resistant monitoring for high-security and critical infrastructure. Fiber-optic sensor-based security uses optical fibers to detect vibrations, motion, or temperature changes along perimeters, offering high sensitivity, resistance to electromagnetic interference, and reliable protection for military, industrial, and commercial environments. For example, in October 2024, Miami International Airport, a US-based airport, deployed a new PIDS incorporating advanced fiber-optic sensors along its perimeter fence, integrated with video surveillance and analytics for real-time monitoring and response. The system also includes ground-based radar and laser-wall barriers to detect and prevent unauthorized entry.

In May 2023, Vitaprotech, a France-based electronic security company, acquired Harper Chalice, a UK-based manufacturer of intrusion detection systems including fences and barriers, for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enables Vitaprotech to expand its commercial offerings and strengthen its presence in the perimeter intrusion detection market.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs on electronic components, surveillance systems, and fencing materials have increased the overall cost of perimeter intrusion detection system deployment, particularly impacting critical infrastructure and industrial segments in regions reliant on imported security hardware. North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific markets have experienced slower procurement cycles due to increased duties on sensors, cameras, and metal barriers. However, tariffs have also encouraged local manufacturing and innovation in cost-optimized security solutions, supporting regional industry growth.
