The Development and Prospect of the Security Industry in 2022

Every year, I look forward to the development trend of the security industry in that year. I recently reviewed the outlook articles I wrote and found that although the trends were predicted correctly, the content of the outlook is too broad and the time span is too large. This will be the case for the next few years, and many of which are difficult to represent the situation of this year.

So I thought that future forecasts and prospects should be more subtle and more precise. The development outlook of the security industry in 2022 starts from the subtleties.

Market

The security industry, enterprises and government sectors have always been the market leaders. In 2022, the personal household consumption market should have great development. to B, to G, to C should divide the market equally.

Technology

H.266 encoded security products should be available. 8K front-end camera products should come with H.266 encoding. Of course there are some uncertainties. HiSilicon is abolished, and the development of Ambarella in the security industry is gradually sluggish. Other domestic SOC chip manufacturers are insufficient in the development of new technologies and new products. The security SOC chip market seems to have entered a period of stagnation, and we can only expect new leaders to emerge.

The application of 5G in the security industry is currently unclear. Even, I have always held the view that the ultimate fate of 5G itself should be the same as 3G, which can only be a transitional technology.

AI functions will further penetrate from the solution and product side to the hardware front-end of sensors, ISPs, and SOCs. The same low-power feature requirements will be further moved to the sensor, SOC part.

Product

Household, low-power security products will be the focus of the security market in 2022.

IoB, internet of behaviors, Internet of Behaviors, products and solutions that capture, process, and analyze people's behaviors in their daily lives.

Idea

Green environmental protection (low-power products, green storage), pan-security (security attributes of products, companies, and industries, the boundaries are getting blurred), cloud (VSaaS).
