Layers of Security Provide Defense In Depth

U.S. tariff policies implemented by the Trump administration can significantly impact the supply chain for physical security systems, introducing challenges that affect manufacturers, integrators, and end-users. And while there have been shifting approaches to implementing tariffs, it is important to understand the underlying concerns that will affect physical security technology.


Based on this constellation of tariffs, physical security system components most affected include:

  • Access Control Systems—Card readers and access control panels

  • Video Surveillance Equipment—Cameras and sensors

  • Intrusion Detection Systems

  • Networking Devices—Routers, switches, firewalls, and Wi-Fi access points

  • Servers and Storage Solutions


Insite has published a briefing with an analysis of the impact of tariffs on the security technology supply chain, which includes ancillary risks and considerations for corporate security programs. Our analysts offer some mitigating strategies as well.
