HiveWatch, a physical security software company reimagining how organisations keep their people and assets safe, releases The State of Physical Security Operations in 2026, a new benchmark report examining how enterprise physical security programs actually perform when measured against operational realities, including alarm volume, SLA attainment, operational maturity, and AI adoption.
Commissioned through independent research firm Censuswide, the report surveyed 300 U.S.-based professionals responsible for physical security operations at organisations with 500 or more employees and at least $5 million in annual revenue. The findings reveal a striking disconnect between confidence and operational effectiveness across modern security operations centers (SOCs).
