The DAC is anticipated to have a faster growth during the forecast period 2021-2027 owing to its increased adoption and prominence in the market as it offers various benefits such as improved efficiency, increased data security, faster authentication, and reduces the cost.

Insight by Application

Based on application, the global access control market is divided into mobile/contactless payment, user authentication & access control, information sharing, monitoring healthcare systems, and others. Mobile/contactless payment is anticipated to contribute to high CAGR during the forecast period 2025-2030 owing to the rising demand for cashless transactions globally and increased adoption of multi-tasking electronic devices. 

Insight by End-User

Based on the end-user, the global access control market is classified into residential, commercial, industrial, government, healthcare, education, transport & logistics, military & defense, and others. The commercial is further divided into enterprise & data centers, BFSI, hotels, stadiums, & amusements parks, and retail stores & malls. The residential segment is anticipated to have the fastest growth during the forecast period 2025-2030 owing to the increased installation of the access control system to prevent burglary and invasion, rising demand for smart homes along with rapid urbanization. Furthermore, the surge in crime rates, technological development, safeguarding the security of children and elderly at home, and the need to detect hazards such as gas leaks and fire will propel the growth of the segment.
