Maritime Security - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2025 - 2030)
Market Report I 2025-04-28 I 106 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
The Maritime Security Market size is estimated at USD 32.11 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 45.07 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.02% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
Because of the profound changes in the international strategic landscape, the configuration of the international security system has been undermined by growing hegemonism, unilateralism, and power politics, which have fueled several ongoing global conflicts. In 2023 and 2024, attacks by the Houthi militia on trade ships in the Red Sea region registered a significant rise, impacting the trade between Asia and Europe and alarming major militaries across the world. These attacks are a result of an escalation of the war between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza.
Owing to these issues, the adoption of advanced digital platforms, secured software, and vessel monitoring tools has gained traction, and the trend of increased adoption rate of these platforms is expected to continue during the next decade. Moreover, an increase in maritime trade and transportation activities has also been marred by the rising incidents of trafficking of prohibited substances, illegal immigration, and attacks on ports and coastal areas, thereby driving the demand for maritime security equipment.
On the other hand, inconsistent and outdated national laws and regulations related to maritime security can create gaps in governance. These laws are often inconsistent or contradictory, leading to confusion when implementing naval security solutions. Different maritime laws and enforcement processes for each country make it difficult for companies to comply with requirements, which can lead to high costs and delays in implementing security solutions.
Maritime Security Market Trends
The Surveillance and Tracking Segment Expected to Dominate the Market During the Forecast Period
Growing demand for security in ports and coastal areas creates a requirement for advanced surveillance and tracking systems. The need for such systems is high in regions like Latin America, West Africa, and the Caribbean due to the increased number of pirate attacks and robbery incidents in the past few years. On the other hand, while North American and European countries embrace emerging maritime surveillance technologies for improved security, rising trade and growing maritime tensions in the Asia-Pacific have been the key drivers of surveillance system procurement.
The ports deploy various cameras, including fisheye, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, thermal cameras, etc. For comprehensive short-range operations such as monitoring cruise terminal areas, marine ports prefer wide-angle (90-degree to 360-degree) cameras to provide a comprehensive view of busy operation areas. For long-range surveillance, ports deploy thermal cameras to monitor illegal activities such as fishing and poaching in the coastal and exclusive economic zones. For instance, in February 2024, the Cochin Port Authority issued a tender for 36 IP CCTV surveillance systems across various locations. The bid, which encompassed a two-year guarantee and a five-year comprehensive AMC, ensured seven years of maintenance by bidders. Such developments are expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific Expected to Witness the Highest Market Growth During the Forecast Period
Increasing maritime trade and a growing focus on enhancing port infrastructure drive market growth across Asia-Pacific. To cater to marine trade in the region, investments are being made into developing new ports and terminal expansions. Due to the increased need for security and surveillance systems, ports are introducing new perimeter security systems for tracking unidentified goods and materials, automatic alarms in case of an unusual gathering of personnel, monitoring alarms for camera tampering, etc.
For instance, in June 2024, the Japan Coast Guard (JCG) announced plans to develop a versatile patrol boat designed to enhance the country's maritime capabilities and counter the issue of Chinese vessels encroaching into Japanese waters. The vessel, set to house three helicopters and a fleet of high-speed rubber boats, underscores Japan's commitment to maritime security. Port authorities in China, Japan, Australia, and Vietnam, among others, are making similar investments in maritime security, which are expected to propel the market's growth during the forecast period.
Maritime Security Industry Overview
The maritime security market is semi-consolidated, with key players supporting market growth with various products like command and control systems, surveillance and scanning systems, and communication systems. Some prominent players are Thales, BAE Systems PLC, Westminster Group PLC, Smiths Group PLC, and OSI Systems Inc. Companies are investing highly in developing new and advanced detection and monitoring systems that will improve the overall security at maritime borders. For instance, in September 2023, Eurocontrolli secured four contracts from Saudi Aramco, supplying telecom and security systems, including CCTV, to fortify the security of key oilfields like Qatif, Marjan, Abu Safah, and Safaniya. Such strategies by companies would help market players increase their sales and profits and expand their businesses to new geographical locations.
