Surveillance systems play a crucial role in enhancing security, crime prevention, and traffic management in Bangladesh. Government agencies, law enforcement, and private institutions are increasingly adopting modern surveillance technologies to ensure public safety.

The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) and other law enforcement agencies have deployed CCTV cameras with AI-powered facial recognition in key locations to monitor criminal activities. Public and private sector organizations use surveillance systems to protect critical infrastructures such as airports, government buildings, and financial institutions. Additionally, smart surveillance is improving border security, preventing illegal activities, and aiding disaster response.

Challenges include data privacy concerns, lack of a comprehensive legal framework, and limited technological infrastructure in rural areas. Strengthening surveillance regulations and integrating advanced technologies such as drones and AI-driven analytics will further enhance security and law enforcement efficiency in Bangladesh.
