The North America Access Control Software Market size is estimated at USD 244.90 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 388.5 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.70% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

North America Access Control Software - Market

North America is among the prominent markets for access control solutions owing to a more significant footprint of industrial and commercial enterprises. Furthermore, a higher acceptance of advanced technologies among consumers is also boosting the growth of the market studied. The growing adoption of IoT access controls and technological advancements driven by local vendors may contribute to the growth of the market studied.

The increasing usage of smartphones is increasing the demand for access control software, as Bluetooth or near-field communication is used to complete the authentication and authorize the payment process. Companies are technologically transitioning from cards to smartphones for access controls.

In North America, including artificial intelligence in biometric authentication has recently gained traction to improve the accuracy, reliability, and scalability of authentication methods. AI-assisted biometric authentication is also much faster and more convenient than traditional methods. It can be used to secure access in seconds, eliminating the need for PINs or passwords. For example, AI facial recognition systems can accurately recognize faces from various angles and lighting conditions. Face detection technology has recently been included in several federal offices and commercial spaces. For example, the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) installed face recognition systems provided by IDEMIA.

Similarly, AI-enabled voice recognition systems can recognize voices even in noisy environments. Overall, using artificial intelligence in biometric authentication helps organizations secure their digital assets and provides individuals with a secure and convenient authentication experience. However, widespread adoption of voice recognition solutions for access control is expected to take time in the market studied.

According to the US Department of Justice, it is estimated that about 2.5 million burglaries occur every year, with more than 50% of incidents being home invasions. As per security.org, less than 30% of homes are equipped with an effective and reliable security system. Hence, such trends necessitate implementing home access control systems in the region.

However, high initial investment is a significant hindrance to market growth. Several SMEs and businesses find it challenging to bear the initial cost of investment in IT infrastructure and often deploy low-cost and cheap or duplicate software on the systems, compromising security protection against thefts and criminal activities. Furthermore, the costs associated with maintenance and data are also critical. Data security should be maintained, such as anti-virus software in the system, encryption-decryption of data, and others, limiting organizations from investing in these types of security and identification software.

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the access control software market since offices were shut and people were working from home. However, the market witnessed growth post-pandemic as companies upgraded their systems to advanced technologies such as contactless biometric authentication, Bluetooth, near-field communication, and RF for the highest data security, creating a demand for access control software market.

North America Access Control Software Market Trends

Commercial to Hold Significant Market Share

  • The United States is an early adopter of access control systems and software owing to the presence of several more significant market players. The commercial verticals, such as financial centers and banks, enterprises, hotels, malls, and retail stores, have a substantial presence in the country. For instance, Walmart, a leading retailer in the United States, has about 4,615 stores and employs approximately 1.6 million associates. Access control software has become crucial in tracking employees' entry and exit timings and protecting personnel against data breaches.
  • As organizations return to the physical workplace, they adapt to new requirements and leverage the latest technology to alleviate employees' safety concerns. Several companies are structured hierarchically, and the most senior employees have higher clearance levels. The biometric access control software can access the right people and protect the privacy of more junior employees. Moreover, this software can limit lower-level employee access to specific information, protecting organizational privacy.
  • Several regional offices have made it mandatory for their employees to have access cards. Furthermore, grants and subsidies provided by federal agencies play a significant role in helping governments finance their security initiatives. For instance, in August 2023, the US Department of Defense announced that civilian retirees must show a registered REAL ID card to access the base.
  • As the number of commercial buildings increases in the region, there is an increase in access control systems to prevent unauthorized entries, encouraging commercial enterprises to adopt advanced solutions for access control. For instance, according to FMI Corporation, the value of new office construction in the United States stood at USD 78,144 million in 2023.

United States to Hold Significant Market Share

  • The increasing crime rate in the United States is propelling the market's growth in the region. The government is also interested in protecting its assets. Governments across the country have installed time-based access to particular premises restricting entry to the general public at certain places.
  • The most common type of crime committed in the United States is property crime. According to the latest FBI statistics, more than 70% of property crimes were committed through theft and robbery. Most people are not at home when a break-in occurs. Therefore, home security systems are essential. The Department of Justice reported that just 27.6% of burglaries occurred when someone was home, and 65.1% of criminals knew the victim. Research by the Rutgers University School of Criminal Justice indicated that increased security alarm installation led to a drop in burglaries over five years. Hence, such trends are anticipated to encourage property owners to use advanced access control solutions to enhance the security of their premises.
  • Considering the benefits of the technology, government entities are investing in access control systems and software to fortify critical infrastructure, protect public facilities, and ensure the safety of their residents.
  • The substantial increase in data breaches in the country across various industries is increasing the adoption of biometric software by organizations, providing users with another layer of security to secure themselves. For instance, according to the Identity Theft Resource Center, in 2023, about 3,205 cases of data compromises were reported in the United States. Furthermore, during the year, over 353 million individuals were impacted by data compromises, including data leakage, breaches, and exposure. Access control software can significantly enhance data security by ensuring that access to the right place is given to the right individual. Hence, such trends also create a favorable ecosystem for the deployment of access control solutions in the country.
  • Stricter fraud detection and risk analysis regulations drive access control software adoption in the BFSI segments. The presence of regulatory and corporate policies of businesses profoundly impacts the adoption of security-related infrastructure in the country. Several companies have already implemented facial recognition software for payment authentication, including PayPal, Mastercard, and Visa.
