Asia-Pacific Data Center Physical Security Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Asia-Pacific Data Center Physical Security Market Analysis

The Asia-Pacific Data Center Physical Security Market size is estimated at USD 0.53 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 1.04 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 14.5% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Data center security employs a four-layered approach: perimeter security, facility controls, computer room controls, and cabinet controls. The first layer, perimeter security, focuses on deterring and detecting unauthorized personnel, aiming to delay potential breaches. Should a breach occur, the second layer, which employs access control systems like card swipes or biometrics, restricts further access. The third layer enhances physical security with various verification methods, including monitoring restricted areas, turnstiles, VCA, biometric access controls for fingerprints, irises, or vascular patterns, and radio frequency identification. While these layers primarily focus on authorized personnel, an additional layer, cabinet locking mechanisms, addresses concerns of insider threats, such as malicious employees.

• The upcoming IT load capacity of the Asia-Pacific data center construction market is expected to reach 23K MW by 2029.
