The adoption of cloud-based solutions for physical security has been gradually increasing over the past decade, but it is now picking up speed, according to Genetec’s newly released 2024 State of Physical Security report. 

According to the survey, 44 percent of end users reported that more than one-quarter of their physical security setups are now either in the cloud or use a combination of cloud and on-premises solutions. This is a significant jump from the 24 percent reported in last year’s survey.
