Digital vigilance: Strategy for a secure and informed population
India’s video surveillance market alone generated over $ 2.026 billion early this year and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.2% through 2030. Meanwhile, the broader Indian security market was valued at $ 8.77 billion in 2024 and is forecast to reach nearly $ 16.97 billion by 2030. These numbers are not just about business growth; they underlie a tectonic shift: security and surveillance solutions are becoming core infrastructure, not mere adjuncts.
In this fraught geopolitical era, where trade sanctions, supply-chain shocks, and technology embargoes are no longer rare, India must no longer be a passive consumer of strategic technologies, especially in security.
