According to the latest data from Parks Associates, 19% of US internet households have professionally monitored security systems, while 7% pay for non-professional services like alerts an video storage. The Residential Security Dashboard from Parks Associates also reports consumers increasingly value video security devices for their role in enhancing personal safety. The installation process across the market has become more flexible, with both DIY and professional setup options available.

Industry players Vivint, Brinks, and ADT maintain high monthly fees, with Parks Associates’ research showing the average monthly fees for home security services are now $54 per month. 

“Growth opportunities lie in upselling add-on devices, integrating energy and automation platforms, and offering differentiated value through AI, privacy-preserving features, and seamless user experiences,” said Jennifer Kent, VP of Research, Parks Associates.
