Public safety technology is going through a quiet reorganisation. The conglomerates that once bundled safety software inside sprawling industrial portfolios are separating it out, either to sharpen focus or to sell it. Underneath that corporate churn, the demand story is straightforward: agencies want one pane of glass across dispatch, surveillance and disaster response, and they want it to work when the network is under strain.
Hexagon completed the separation of Octave as an independent public company in May 2026. Octave carries the Safety, Infrastructure and Geospatial business alongside Asset Lifecycle Intelligence, ETQ and Bricsys, putting Hexagon’s public safety software into a standalone listed vehicle.
The United States Department of Commerce and AT&T agreed a renegotiated FirstNet framework in March 2026, securing an additional USD 2 billion of value for public safety. Around USD 1 billion goes into network and coverage enhancements guided by the FirstNet Authority Board.
Honeywell announced in October 2025 that it would spin off its Aerospace and Advanced Materials businesses. The remaining automation company keeps the building and infrastructure safety systems portfolio, giving that segment far more visibility than it had inside the old conglomerate.
Johnson Controls completed the sale of its Residential and Light Commercial HVAC business to Robert Bosch in July 2025. The disposal leaves the group concentrated on commercial fire, security and building systems, the parts of its portfolio that sit inside this market.
Solutions are the dominant global public safety and security offering, because agencies buy the command and control platform first and only then contract the integration and managed services around it. Services are the faster-growing half, since few police forces or transit authorities can run a modern dispatch and analytics stack in house.
Large enterprises are the dominant global public safety and security enterprise size. National agencies, metropolitan police forces, airports and utilities carry the budgets these systems require, and procurement cycles run for years. Small and medium enterprises are growing faster, reaching the technology through cloud subscriptions rather than capital projects.
Emergency communication and incident management is the dominant global public safety and security application. The March 2026 FirstNet renegotiation, which put roughly USD 1 billion into network and coverage enhancements for United States first responders, shows how much value sits in this layer. Surveillance and security follows, while disaster management grows on climate exposure.
North America is the dominant global public safety and security region. The United States runs the largest dedicated first responder network in the world, and its agencies set procurement standards others copy. General Dynamics Mission Systems, Cisco, Honeywell and Johnson Controls all operate substantial North American public safety businesses.
Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing global public safety and security region, as rapid urbanisation forces cities to build command centres and surveillance networks from a standing start. Europe is significant on critical infrastructure protection rules and a strong local vendor base including Atos, Thales, Siemens and Ericsson. Latin America and the Middle East and Africa expand from a smaller base.

By Offering, solutions dominate because agencies buy the platform before they buy the people to run it
Solutions hold the largest global public safety and security market share by offering. Command and control platforms, video management systems and analytics engines are the anchor purchase. Services grow faster, since few police forces or transit authorities can operate a modern dispatch and analytics stack unaided.

By Enterprise Size, large enterprises account for the dominant share on procurement budgets
Large enterprises take the dominant global public safety and security market share by enterprise size. National agencies, police forces, airport operators and utilities have budgets deep enough for multi-year command centre programmes. Small and medium enterprises grow faster, since cloud subscriptions bring video analytics and incident management within reach of smaller municipalities.

By Application, emergency communication and incident management holds the dominant share
Emergency communication and incident management commands the dominant global public safety and security market share by application. Dedicated responder networks are where the money concentrates: the March 2026 FirstNet renegotiation put roughly USD 1 billion into United States coverage enhancements. Surveillance and security is the second pillar. Disaster management grows fastest on flood, wildfire and storm exposure.

By Industry Vertical, government and public sector accounts for the dominant share
Government and public sector takes the dominant global public safety and security market share by industry vertical, since national and municipal agencies are the ultimate customer. Infrastructure security is the fastest-growing vertical as critical asset protection rules tighten across power, water and telecoms. Transportation systems and emergency services make up the remainder.

North America is the dominant global public safety and security market region.
Agency budgets settle it. The United States operates the largest dedicated first responder network anywhere, and in March 2026 the Commerce Department renegotiated the FirstNet framework with AT&T to secure an extra USD 2 billion of value for public safety. General Dynamics Mission Systems, Cisco, Honeywell and Johnson Controls all run substantial North American businesses in this space, and federal procurement standards tend to become everyone else’s baseline.
Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing global public safety and security region. Cities across the region are building command centres, emergency communication networks and surveillance systems from a standing start, so the growth comes off a smaller base but moves quickly. Europe is significant, with tightening critical infrastructure protection rules and a deep local vendor bench that includes Atos, Thales, Siemens and Ericsson. Latin America and the Middle East and Africa expand more slowly.

The global public safety and security market is unusually fragmented for its size, because no single vendor covers dispatch software, radio networks, video analytics and building systems equally well. Buyers therefore assemble stacks, and integrators matter as much as product owners.
The corporate structure of the sector is in flux. Hexagon has spun its safety and geospatial software into Octave, Honeywell is separating into a focused automation company, and Johnson Controls has been reshaping its portfolio around commercial fire and security.
Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Bezons, France, Atos is a European digital services and cybersecurity group. Its Eviden arm supplies mission-critical systems to defence and public sector customers, including secure communications, cybersecurity services and large-scale event security, and the group has been reorganising around artificial intelligence under its Genesis transformation plan.
Founded in 1984 and headquartered in San Jose, California, Cisco is the largest networking vendor in the world. Its public safety work centres on the resilient networks that emergency communication depends on, alongside video surveillance infrastructure, secure connectivity for command centres and the collaboration platforms first responders use.
A business unit of General Dynamics and headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, General Dynamics Mission Systems builds secure communications and command and control systems for defence and public safety customers. It is a long-standing supplier of encrypted radio and network infrastructure to United States federal and state agencies.
Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, Hexagon supplies computer-aided dispatch, records management and geospatial intelligence to police, fire and emergency medical services worldwide. In May 2026 it separated Octave as an independent public company, taking the Safety, Infrastructure and Geospatial division with it.
Other key players include Honeywell International Inc, NEC Corporation, Thales Group, Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Siemens AG, and Johnson Controls, among others.
