IFSEC India 2025 sets a powerful benchmark for India's future-ready security and surveillance ecosystem

The 18th edition of IFSEC India 2025, organised by Informa Markets in India, concluded successfully at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Held from December 11 to 13, the largest-ever edition of the show featured over 350 brands on showcase, along with government officials, enterprise security heads, consultants and a notable presence of industry influencers among its 16,000 attendees, helping broaden the scope of conversations.

The strongest impression left on visitors was the direction in which India’s security ecosystem is moving. The show floor reflected an industry no longer confined to its commercial surveillance past, but one expanding into cyber protection, drone-based vigilance, homeland readiness and integrated operational intelligence.

Security is now being approached as an essential layer of governance and business continuity. This shift was evident across keynotes and panel discussions, where cyber-physical risks, AI-led decision systems, and vulnerabilities in transport, logistics and digital infrastructure drew the kind of attention once reserved solely for camera hardware. As India strengthens its digital footprint, the boundaries between physical and cyber resilience have almost dissolved.

A show floor that captured the industry’s changing mood

The clearest indicator of IFSEC’s influence was the number of major launches aligned with the event. The CP PLUS–Qualcomm collaboration drew particular attention, combining Qualcomm’s silicon and AI edge with CP PLUS’s strong domestic footprint to create AI-native video intelligence systems expected by early 2026.

Several companies used IFSEC to unveil category-defining offerings. Lemorele, launching in India for the first time, showcased wireless HDMI solutions, docking stations and AR glass accessories for both consumer and professional AV transmission. Enview Technologies, an ISO 9001- and 27001-certified deep-tech company, demonstrated its platform that converts CCTV feeds into actionable, real-time intelligence for safety and operations. Katomaran Technologies introduced its next-generation cloud-native VSaaS platform, built entirely with advanced AI to offer always-on awareness and unlimited scalability. Cohesive showcased secured unified communication systems, ONVIF-compliant AI door phones, VDPs, IoT access control solutions and emergency call boxes. Acumen Track strengthened the telematics line-up with advanced vehicle-tracking and anti-theft technologies.

Analytics and imaging innovation were also central to the show. Intozi’s next-generation video synopsis engine compressed hours of footage into seconds, redefining investigative workflows. At Sony’s booth, e-con Systems displayed fast-exposure and high-dynamic-range camera modules relevant to surveillance, robotics and industrial AI.

The breadth of the ecosystem was reinforced by several additional launches. CBC Corporation, through Ganz by CBC, introduced STQC-certified cameras with advanced surveillance and analytics-led VMS. Point Blank Range expanded tactical security offerings with new flashlights, identification lights, searchlights, headlamps, revolving lights and handheld metal detectors. Hi-Focus presented AI interactive panels and intelligent NVRs designed for modern command environments. SRB Enterprises added to the solutions landscape with new systems tailored for versatile deployment. Alongside these, Sparsh underscored the rise of Indian manufacturing, unveiling its offerings in the presence of actor Sonu Sood.

Aligning security with India’s larger digital ambition

A recurring theme across discussions, both on stage and in informal interactions, was the balance between global innovation and India’s growing self-reliance. The country’s electronic security market, inching towards the ₹1 lakh crore mark, has reached a stage where it no longer needs to choose between imported sophistication and domestic capability.

As security becomes inseparable from digital services, public infrastructure, financial systems and urban mobility, IFSEC’s role as a marketplace for strategy rather than just products has become more pronounced. Delegations from ministries, metro authorities, police departments and enterprise security teams were not only evaluating technology but also examining how these systems translate into resilience, governance and preparedness.

As the three-day event concluded, Yogesh Mudras, managing director, Informa Markets in India, observed: “India’s security and surveillance industry is ready for its next decade. More intelligent, more integrated, and increasingly aligned with the country’s technological aspirations, the momentum built at IFSEC India 2025 suggests a sector stepping into a new phase—with broader responsibility, deeper capability and renewed clarity about the future it is helping to secure.”
