SILVER SPRING, Md. – More than three-fourths of respondents in the latest Security Industry Association (SIA) Security Market Index survey offered a positive take on current business conditions.

The May-June Security Market Index found that 77% of the survey pool – which comprises industry leaders who represent a cross section of SIA membership – describe conditions at their company as “excellent” or “good,” with 34% reporting the highest rating.

A similar number – 78% – said they expect conditions to improve during the next three months, with 22% saying they will get “much better” and 56% predicting conditions would get “a little better.”

When asked about the 2023 ISC West trade show – which took place March 28-31 in Las Vegas, Nevada, respondents who attended had very good things to say, with more than one out of four describing the show as “one of the best – if not the best – ever” and more than half calling it an “excellent show.” Less than 2% of respondents had a negative view of the event. SIA is the premier sponsor of ISC West and ISC East.
