APRIL - 20236GOVERNMENT CIO OUTLOOKEDITORIALEnhancing Border Security with Advanced TechnologiesGo ne are the days when physical strength and observational skills were key characteristics of border security. To deal with complex challenges like terrorism, unauthorized immigration, and drug trafficking, technologies like biometric systems using advanced facial recognition software and advanced imaging and identification equipment are becoming a necessity.Acco rding to a study by Vision Reports, the global border security market was valued at $33.81 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0 percent between 2023 ­ 2033. This prolific growth can be attributed to the growi ng geopolitical instabilities and territorial struggles. In addition, illegal smuggling and immigration activities across borders necessitate the adoption of border security systems.Perim eter intrusion detection systems are now widely used by governments to create virtual borders and help protect physical barriers such as fences or walls. The combination of underground sensors, camera systems, and microwave intrusion detection systems alert agents of activity near borders. A range of manned and unmanned vehicles are now deployed across borders to improve surveillance, including all-terrain vehicles, airplanes, rotary aircraft, maritime and riverine vessels, and unmanned aerial and underwater vehicles.This edition of Govt CIO Outlook delivers a bird's-eye view of the recent developments in the border security arena and insights into how organizations are aligning with these trends and adopting new ways to transform legacy practices.We have curated thought leadership articles from industry experts, including the Police Chief and Safety Services Manager at the City of Blaine, Minnesota, and the Assistant IT Director and CISO at the City of Coral Gables.We also took a deep dive into the market trends to narrow down the list of companies delivering innovative border security solutions.
