Frost Radar™: Access Control Solutions, 2024

Access control solutions are the cornerstone of numerous organizations’ physical security measures used to safeguard all facility entry and exit points as well as protect employees, customers, and assets from security risks. Due to their longstanding use, these solutions have not evolved much in the past few decades, despite digital advancements in the security industry. People often still need to present a physical token, whether an ID badge, card, or key, to a reader or lock to verify their access rights to a facility.

Although digital solutions—such as biometric readers and scanners—and enhanced integration of access control data with other physical security system data have emerged, the shift has been gradual compared to other physical security technologies. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and the swift move to hybrid workforces catalyzed the access control solutions industry. As such, organizations began seeking solutions that could better facilitate remote monitoring, provide integrated views of multiple work sites, support digital onboarding, utilize biometric credentials for identity verification, and offer numerous other functions.

As the access control industry continues to grow, Frost & Sullivan has carefully selected a group of providers that offer complete solutions to cover an organization's physical and digital security operations. These companies include physical security vendors with an entire access control portfolio and new industry entrants offering more comprehensive solutions to customers.
