The US Department of Defense has deployed ground-based optic surveillance systems along the US-Mexico border under Joint Task Force Southern Border operations, adding military-grade detection capability to Customs and Border Protection's existing perimeter monitoring infrastructure. Systems deployed include the Ground-Based Operational Surveillance System–Expeditionary (GBOSS-E), the Long-Range Advanced
Briefing
LiDAR-based detection has crossed from access-point monitoring into broader perimeter security applications. In the first half of 2025 alone, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport announced LiDAR deployment for real-time perimeter monitoring, Ouster reported a 95% nuisance alarm reduction with its Gemini platform integrated into Genetec Security Center, and the pending

Vendors
The perimeter intrusion detection market is served by a mix of specialist PIDS manufacturers, security conglomerates with perimeter product lines, and camera/radar companies expanding into detection applications. Understanding who makes what — and where their strengths lie — is essential for specification and procurement. This guide maps the principal vendors by
Briefing
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) has moved from a specialist technology for pipeline monitoring and seismic surveys into the mainstream of perimeter intrusion detection. The fiber optic PIDS market — valued at approximately $172 million in 2024 — is projected to reach $244 million by 2032, growing at a 5.6% CAGR that

Buried sensors provide covert perimeter detection — invisible to an intruder, unaffected by weather above ground, and immune to visual obstruction. The sensor is below the surface; the intruder walks, runs, or drives over it without knowing it is there. This makes buried detection the technology of choice for sites where

SORHEA has launched HATCH-SECURE, a multi-sensor intrusion detector designed specifically for hatches and critical access points. The system detects impact, cutting, and drilling attempts using a combination of vibration analysis and contact sensing. Hatches, manholes, and service access points represent a persistent gap in many perimeter security architectures. While fence
