The State of Physical Security
Physical security has evolved beyond video surveillance, but many organizations are still managing disconnected systems that make investigations, response and decision-making more difficult. The State of Physical Security 2026 examines findings from 241 verified responses across seven industries, highlighting the challenges security, IT, operations and facilities leaders face today.
The report explores why nearly half of teams take more than 30 minutes to find the right footage after an incident, the growing demand for connected security operations, and opportunities to modernize without replacing existing cameras. It also examines how AI can accelerate investigations, improve visibility and deliver measurable operational outcomes.
