Saudi Arabia Data Center Physical Security Market Trends
IT and Telecom to Hold a Significant Share
For IT players, data center physical security is a key concern when considering a third-party data center. Telecom data centers, owned and operated by telecom or service provider companies like Deutsche Telekom AG and AT&T, prioritize high connectivity and stringent security as they support content delivery and enable mobile and cloud services.
The demand for telecom data centers in Saudi Arabia is rising due to increasing data traffic and networking needs. With 5G deployment expanding, demand for telecom-related data centers and the physical security measures required for them is expected to grow significantly. In July 2023, Center3, a Saudi Telecom subsidiary, expanded one of its data centers in Riyadh. The company is increasing capacity at existing facilities in Riyadh and Jeddah and developing new data centers across the Kingdom, including in Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam.
The arrival of 5G is anticipated to significantly boost speeds, lower latency, and unlock unprecedented network capabilities, enabling a more interconnected, real-time environment. Saudi Arabia remains the fourth-fastest country globally for 5G internet speeds, averaging 264.7 Mbps, and the seventh-fastest for overall mobile internet speeds, at 109.48 Mbps as of Q4 2020. In 2020, 5,358 new 5G towers were installed nationwide, bringing the total to 12,302 towers by year’s end, a number expected to grow as spectrum allocation for commercial use expands and demand for faster internet services increases. This industry's growth is further driven by the rising need for robust physical security in data centers.
Access Control Solutions to Register Significant Growth
Access control is among the most effective, cost-efficient, and scalable ways to secure data centers. Securing sensitive areas through advanced access control systems has become a priority, with biometric access systems offering hierarchical, scalable, and custom-designed solutions for comprehensive data center protection.
Saudi Irsal provides design consultancy and implementation services for data centers, focusing on security, storage capacity, and disaster recovery resources. Irsal's services cater to telecom operators and the commercial and industrial sectors, encompassing physical security measures such as controlled facility access.
While hardware is onsite, software and servers are often hosted remotely within data centers, allowing Security-as-a-Service providers to offer access at a monthly rate, typically per-door or per-user. Access-Control-as-a-Service (ACaaS) provides lower-cost solutions compared to traditional access control methods, as data is stored on remote servers. ACaaS providers also offer partnership opportunities for integrators, value-added resellers (VARs), and managed service providers (MSPs), including training. For example, Assa Abloy offers SMARTair access control systems, specifically designed for small- to medium-sized businesses with intelligent solutions.
As data center construction increases to support cloud deployments, the demand for access control solutions is projected to rise. Under Saudi Vision 2030, foreign investment is actively encouraged, particularly within the technology sector. The 2019 implementation of a cloud-first strategy has further accelerated the adoption of innovative technologies, including AI for Industry 4.0. Additionally, the Cloud Computing Regulatory Framework, enacted by the Communications and Technology Information Commission, aims to enhance cloud computing services and foster regulatory transparency in Saudi Arabia.
