IFSEC India 2025 Sets a Powerful Benchmark for India's Future-Ready Security and Surveillance Ecosystem
*- India's security market surges toward ₹1 lakh crore as IFSEC India brings together top policymakers, global innovators, and enterprise leaders to shape the next decade of intelligent security*
New Delhi, 11th December 2025: The 18th edition of IFSEC India 2025, organised by Informa Markets in India, opened today at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, showcasing the rapidly evolving potential of India's security and surveillance landscape. Bringing together leading government authorities, senior police and defence officials, enterprise security heads, and cutting-edge technology providers, the expo serves as a dynamic platform for innovation, collaboration, and high-impact knowledge exchange. Spanning AI-driven surveillance, advanced analytics, IoT-led infrastructure, cognitive security systems, integrated command platforms, and fire & life safety technologies, the event offers a comprehensive ecosystem for stakeholders to engage in transformative dialogues and explore strategic partnerships.
In its largest ever edition, IFSEC India brings together over 150 exhibitors, 350+ brands and an expected 20,000 industry professionals. This edition's theme, "Shaping Nations, Securing Futures", reflects the event's commitment to addressing India's evolving security landscape.
In keeping with IFSEC India's longstanding legacy as South Asia's premier security event, the inaugural ceremony brought together a distinguished lineup of policymakers and senior dignitaries including Shri Naveen K. Bansal, Addl Director-General, Central Public Works Department, Govt of India; Shri Akhilesh Srivastava, IT Advisor ITDA, Govt. of Uttarakhand & President, ITS India; Shri Suvashis Choudhary, IPS, Chief Security Commissioner, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation; Smt Padma Jaiswal, IAS, Secretary, Govt. of UT of Puducherry; Shri Dinesh Kr Gupta, IPS, Addl CP – Traffic, Delhi Police; Mr Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India; and Mr Prashant Jain, Sr. Project Director, Informa Markets in India amidst a strong industry presence.
Speaking at the inauguration, Shri Alok Tiwari, Managing Director, National Informatics Centre Services Incorporated, Ministry of Electronics & IT, said, "As we move towards 2030, AI will no longer be a buzzword but a foundational layer powering intelligent agents, national-scale digital systems, and citizen-facing services. The Government of India is placing strong emphasis on accelerating AI adoption across ministries and public infrastructure. Cybersecurity, the next critical frontier, has witnessed a fourfold transformation, particularly in securing ministries, data centres, and citizen service ecosystems. Post Operation Sindoor, attackers have intensified their efforts and attempted hits on government networks have surged nearly seven times, exposing new vulnerabilities in ministries, data centres, and citizen services. This underscores the need for advanced defences against ransomware, phishing, and the growing threat of supply-chain attacks. Another emerging challenge is quantum computing; by 2028, existing algorithms will face obsolescence, making it imperative to develop quantum-resilient frameworks. Cloud computing, too, is scaling at unprecedented speed with hyperscalers enabling rapid expansion and optimisation of national digital workloads. While the next three to four years may pose significant technological and security challenges, India is building strong capacity across government systems."
Smt Padma Jaiswal, IAS, Secretary, UT of Puducherry, said, "Cybercrime today has grown into a trillion-dollar global threat, while our cybersecurity industry is still only a fraction of that scale. This gap reflects a simple reality: the adversaries are moving faster than us. From phishing and ransomware to social-engineering fraud, almost every citizen has faced an attack in some form. As our public infrastructure, financial systems, and UPI-driven digital economy expand, we must recognise that our assets now exist as much in the cloud as they do on the ground. With 5G, AI and autonomous systems transforming governance, public-private partnerships and shared infrastructure will be essential to scale secure innovation. Ultimately, strengthening predictive, preventive and resilient security frameworks is foundational to India's journey toward a $30-trillion economy by 2047."
