Explore 2025's top security technology trends, from AI-powered surveillance to biometric controls.
It’s not Y2K, but asset protection leaders always keep their eye on the ball—and AI is shaking things up in 2025.
Here’s what’s top of mind:
As the tidal wave of artificial intelligence-enabled security solutions continues to hit the market, asset protection leaders often find themselves on the sales end of the latest tech. Your friendly senior IT leaders may scream this into the void, but they have an impassioned plea for those who launch the security software product discovery and demo phase:
No more siloed solutions!
Today’s tech must deliver substantial returns on investment—for both internal and external KPIs. To maximize the potential of AI-backed tools, it’s imperative each entry in your company’s tech stack integrates seamlessly with legacy systems to create a holistic convergence of software.
TL;DR: Tap your IT teams early and often as you consider, test, review, and purchase a security solution. This has the potential to transform your investment into a visual intelligence platform.
Speaking of AI—it delivers more than exponential efficiencies; these ultrafast computer programming technologies transform security operations into proactive endeavors rather than reactive issues.
“We have put a strong focus on AI. We want to get to more predictive security rather than reactive security and also do maintenance monitoring,” Honeywell President, Security and Access Solutions Jeff Stanek told researchers in the Security Industry Association’s “2025 Security Megatrends” report. “We want the systems and devices to tell us when something is going to fail before it fails.”
The latest advances in video surveillance cameras deploy powerful tech in their lines of sight and identify potential risks before they escalate into real problems:
These cameras not only capture video footage but also process and analyze data in real time, using artificial intelligence to detect unusual activity and recognize potential threats.
LPR cameras use advanced infrared illuminators to capture images of vehicles—traveling faster than 100 miles per hour, from nearly 100 feet away, and in dark or poorly lit areas.
Unlike traditional CCTV monitoring services, asset protection leaders tap security professionals to respond to the security camera alerts.
Unlike traditional surveillance systems, AI-powered cameras can identify patterns, predict behavior, and adjust their monitoring based on changing conditions.
“We identify anomalies in the video footage and trigger a deterrence effect to try to stop dangerous events from happening,” LiveView Technologies® Founder and CEO Ryan Porter told TechBuzz. “
Low-light technology allows the camera to detect threats around the clock, identify bad actors in camouflage, and reveal heat signatures from a distance.
For asset protection leaders, these AI capabilities not only improve outcomes, but can reduce the burden on on-site security staff by automating real-time monitoring, which, in turn, can also address police department staffing shortages. AI-powered video surveillance features also mean fewer false alarms, faster response times, and an unparalleled level of protection.
“Seventy-five percent of the time these events happen, we can prevent a crime from happening,” Porter said.
There’s more than meets the eye when it comes to asset protection and security. Tech companies and manufacturers are harnessing machine learning to analyze audio and are going further than gunshots. Researchers and engineers are extracting discrete sounds from audio files to detect glass breaking and forceful impacts and using algorithms to categorize them—from normal, everyday sounds to those of aggression or extreme distress.
The latest tech is also leveling up traditional security measures for all industries, from retail to transportation. From smart locks and mobile panic buttons to two-factor authenticated credentials and touchless access control systems, security leaders are re-evaluating their current systems and considering what protocols could use an upgrade.
When searching for an effective construction site security solution here are some key features to look for in a mobile surveillance camera system, like our LVT® Unit.
Critical infrastructure, banks, and military bases are just some of the high-security locations that require next-level protection measures. Many asset protection leaders are exploring integrating biometric access controls for high-risk areas, like server rooms, storage facilities, and vaults, into their current systems.
Some popular biometric options include:
LVT offers state-of-the-art surveillance solutions that can help secure assets effectively. Its systems use cutting-edge technologies, including AI and the Internet of Things, to enhance security measures to monitor sites in real time, detect intruders, and respond to threats promptly.
Mobile surveillance LVT Units, backed by its proprietary LVT® Platform, also provide:
