Airport Security Market Forecast to Reach USD 27.49 Billion by 2031 with Strong Growth Trends and Strategic Expansion - Mordor Intelligence

Mordor Intelligence has published a new report on the airport security market offering a comprehensive analysis of trends, growth drivers, and future projections.
Introduction

The airport security market size [https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/airport-security-market?utm_source=abnewswire] stood at USD 17.84 billion in 2026 and is projected to reach USD 27.49 billion by 2031, registering a 9.04% CAGR over the forecast period, This expansion highlights the growing importance of the airport security industry as global air passenger volumes rise steadily, security regulations tighten, and airports prioritize advanced safety frameworks. Heightened focus on enhanced passenger safety, along with increasing adoption of advanced screening and surveillance technologies, continues to shape airport security analysis worldwide.

As airports modernize operations to address evolving threats and improve passenger throughput, the global airport security market growth remains strong. Investments in biometric identification, automation, and intelligent surveillance systems are reinforcing airport security share across both developed and emerging aviation hubs, supported by new regulatory mandates and digital transformation initiatives.

Key Market Trends

Next-Generation Screening Systems: Airports are deploying advanced CT scanners and automated screening technologies that allow faster security checks without requiring passengers to remove laptops or liquids. These innovations enhance efficiency while significantly improving the traveler experience, reinforcing key airport security trends focused on speed and accuracy.

Biometric-Based Identity Verification: Facial recognition, iris scanning, and biometric kiosks are increasingly replacing manual document checks. These technologies enhance identity verification accuracy while supporting seamless passenger movement and contactless processing-an essential evolution within the airport security industry.

Asia-Pacific as the Largest Market: Asia-Pacific leads global airport security investment, driven by rapid airport infrastructure expansion and government-led adoption of biometric and smart security solutions. The region accounts for a significant airport security share due to sustained air traffic growth and modernization initiatives.

Rapid Growth in Middle East and Africa: The Middle East and Africa are expected to witness the fastest growth, supported by new airport mega-projects and large-scale integration of advanced security, access control, and command-and-control systems.
