The AI for public security and safety market is projected to grow from US$ 9.3 billion in 2022 to US$ 71.0 billion by 2030; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 29.3% from 2023 to 2030.

Increasing terrorist activities and security, growing need for security training & awareness, and rising public safety law enforcement demands amid the COVID-19 outbreak are the main factors driving the AI for public security and safety market growth. The government’s public security service protects its citizens, institutions, and organizations from threats. Customers benefit from features such as rapid application development, cybersecurity, accessibility, and safe mobility that the AI-based public safety system offers. The increasing demand of AI in public security and safety requires more predictive data-driven security measures, such as installing public safety communication infrastructure. In addition, the growing trend of integration of IoT for public safety will help vendors expand their businesses.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly changed various industries, and public safety is no exception. From emergency response to disaster prevention, AI has the potential to revolutionize the way we manage crises and protect our communities. Through advanced algorithms, machine learning, and predictive analytics, AI can help first responders and public safety officials make more informed decisions, respond more quickly to emergencies, and even prevent disasters from occurring in the first place. One of the key uses of AI in public safety is in emergency response. In a crisis, every second counts, and AI can help first responders respond faster and more efficiently. For example, AI-powered drones can assess the damage caused by natural disasters such as hurricanes or earthquakes and provide real-time information to emergency response teams. This assessment allows for prioritizing efforts and allocation of resources more effectively, ultimately saving lives and reducing the impact of the disaster. AI provides valuable information in emergencies and can help predict and prevent disasters. For example, AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of data, such as weather patterns, geological activity, and infrastructure conditions to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities. Public safety officials can then use this information to implement preventative measures, such as strengthening infrastructure, evacuating residents, or deploying resources before a disaster
