The size of the global security guarding and monitoring services industries in 2014 is projected to be more than $85 billion and has historically been growing at an annual rate of between four and seven percent per year. The growth of the security guarding and monitoring services industry is strongly tied to increased public-sector outsourcing, GDP growth and in recent years adoption of surveillance technology to offer remote security services where security officers are used. This is a great opportunity for all enterprise security leaders, surveillance manufacturers and security service companies to capitalize on the creation of higher valuable service offerings, which are now possible with remote video monitoring.
