The homeland security and emergency management market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $806.47 billion in 2025 to $866.43 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising incidence of natural disasters increasing demand for emergency preparedness and response solutions, growth in government programs aimed at strengthening national disaster mitigation capabilities, increased deployment of communication and coordination systems for multi-agency emergency response, advancements in monitoring and early warning technologies improving disaster risk management, expanding investment in homeland security infrastructure to address evolving man-made threats.

The homeland security and emergency management market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.11 trillion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing adoption of AI and analytics platforms for real-time disaster prediction and response planning, increasing integration of interoperable emergency management systems across local and national agencies, expansion of cloud-based and remote response solutions supporting rapid crisis coordination, rising demand for resilient infrastructure and continuity solutions to mitigate large-scale disruptions, development of advanced training and simulation technologies enhancing preparedness for complex emergencies. Major trends in the forecast period include integrated disaster response platforms, predictive risk assessment solutions, real-time situational awareness systems, smart emergency communication networks, automated threat detection and response.

The growing threat of terrorist activities is expected to propel the growth of the homeland security and emergency management market going forward. Terrorist activities refer to violent acts carried out by nonstate actors to achieve political, religious, economic, or social objectives through coercion and intimidation of a wider audience. The increasing threat of such activities is largely driven by the spread of extremist groups across conflict zones and unstable regions, resulting in more frequent and complex coordinated attacks targeting civilian populations and critical infrastructure. The rising number of terrorist incidents boosts demand for advanced surveillance systems, emergency response capabilities, threat detection technologies, and comprehensive security training programs that enable governments and organizations to prevent attacks and respond effectively to security breaches. For instance, in April 2024, according to the U.S. Department of State, a U.S.-based federal government agency, global terrorist incidents increased from 7,351 in 2022 to 7,382 in 2023, reflecting a rise of 31 incidents. Therefore, the growing threat of terrorist activities is driving the growth of the homeland security and emergency management market.
