Security Market Index: Industry Confidence Matches 2025 High

SILVER SPRING, Md. — Confidence in the security industry matched the 2025 high this summer, according to the July/August 2025 Security Industry Association (SIA) Security Market Index (SMI) survey, according to the latest results.

With 28% of respondents rating conditions  as “excellent” and 53% saying they are “good,” the total positive responses—81%—matched the 2025 high that was recorded in the January–February survey.

“SIA is proud to see the ongoing resilience of the security industry,” says Scott Dunn, SIA board of directors chairman. “Even with the significant challenges that tariffs are presenting, manufacturers, integrators and others continue to thrive through innovation and a commitment to supporting security and life safety throughout our communities.”

Inside the July/August 2025 Security Market Index

The Security Market Index measures security industry executives’ current status and future expectations through a select survey of SIA members. The Index’s goal is “to provide a macro-view of confidence levels in the security industry every two months,” according to the association, while closely examining six specific business measures:

  • Number of employees or hours worked
  • Marketing spending
  • Product production or service output
  • Capital equipment spending
  • R&D spending
  • Product or service sales

Special focuses of SIA’s July–August 2025 Security Market Index include:

  • Security companies’ growth projections for the next three months
  • Job growth scaling back amid an expanding economy
  • Industry perspectives on the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act

The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
