Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) are expected to dominate the global perimeter security business which is set to grow into a $443.8 million market in 2012, according to electronics market research and consultancy firm IMS Research in a report prepared by Future Fiber Technologies.

The region is projected to account for around 41.6% of the market, with the Middle East and Africa expected to be the largest spenders due to the social movements, airport expansions, construction and oil and gas activities occurring in these areas. Video, fence mounted sensors and free-standing sensors remain the industry’s 3 major segments. More global growth is expected due to the increased threat of terrorist activity, expanded government funding, and favorable legislation.

Perimeter intrusion detection and video surveillance systems are extensively used in the Middle East to protect key infrastructure such as air and sea ports, LNG and petrochemical plants, and government facilities. Demand for video surveillance systems throughout the region, for one, is believed to have achieved 10% growth last year, with Dubai alone spending over $136 million on such systems.

Fiber optic sensing systems are also gaining popularity due to the advantages of using light rather than electrical signals for transmission and detection. Such systems are comparatively new but have proven their performance over the past decade. Fiber optic installations are durable to many types of environmental conditions, do not require power, can be used over long distances, and are resistant to lightning and electrical and magnetic interference.

With the diverse technologies available for border security nowadays, it is not easy to balance effectiveness, accuracy and costs. International Security and National Resilience (ISNR) Exhibition and Conference, taking place from May 19 to 21, 2012 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, will offer Security decision makers, companies and local and regional security officials a strategic platform to view some of the world’s leading perimeter intrusion detection and video surveillance solutions. The event will also enable stakeholders to discuss the best ways to improve perimeter security taking into consideration the Middle East’s unique security environments.

ISNR Abu Dhabi 2012 will cover Border and Transport Security; Intelligence and Threat Assessment; Critical Infrastructure Protection; Emergency Preparedness & Response; Counter Terrorism; and Resilience (Crisis Management).

ISNR will be held under the patronage of H.H. General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces. The UAE Ministry of Interior is fully supporting the event, which will gather over 220 exhibitors from more than 24 countries.
