Best Security & Surveillance Technology Companies in Netherlands
The 186 best Security & Surveillance Technology companies in Netherlands in 2026, ranked by funding and momentum. Funding, investors, founders, valuation, tech stack and live signals. Top: FRISS.
Security & Surveillance Technology in the Netherlands is a crowded, well-funded corner of European tech, and this page ranks the best companies in the sector by disclosed equity funding and recent momentum. We're tracking 186 companies with $219M in total disclosed funding, no unicorns yet, but some serious outliers pulling the numbers up.
Friss leads the directory at $89M raised, which is roughly four times the next cluster and signals just how capital-intensive identity fraud and insurance risk tools have become. Qualinx sits second at $20M, ThreatFabric at $13M, and the rest of the field thins out fast. So the funding curve here is steep. The [global security and surveillance market hit roughly $284.7B in 2022 and is growing at a 4.8% CAGR](https://futuremarketinsights.com), driven by government initiatives, rising safety concerns, and the integration of physical security with digital monitoring. Privacy concerns remain a live regulatory tension for any company operating in this space, especially under Dutch and EU frameworks. If you want a read on where practitioner sentiment is tracking right now, this recent sector recap captures the mood well. Investors like Rockstart and EIC Fund are active here, and I'd watch that mid-tier closely this year.
