Addressing multi-department security needs

Issue 1 2025 News & Events

According to Genetec’s State of Physical Security 2025 report, end users are demanding more from their suppliers. “Choosing physical security solutions doesn’t solely fall on the shoulders of security professionals anymore. From information technology (IT) teams and security operations (SecOps) to facilities teams, more people are getting involved in physical security decisions.

“End users expect these providers to have a deeper understanding of cybersecurity, operations, data, and business automation. They’ll want more cohesive guidance to address stakeholder needs and equip them with the right tools.”

Given the growing emphasis on providing security solutions that cater to the needs of multiple departments, it’s critical to provide a comprehensive platform for end users to source these solutions. Securex South Africa, which takes place at Gallagher Convention Centre in Midrand from 3 to 5 June 2025, is a proven source of multiple integrated and future-proofed security technology.

“By featuring access control, surveillance, identity management, security software, physical security barriers, protective equipment, guarding services, and cybersecurity all under one roof, visitors can quickly and easily identify the best combination of technologies for their specific needs. Exhibitors benefit from the large footfall at Securex South Africa — just imagine gathering thousands of your potential customers in one place over a concentrated three-day period,” says Mark Anderson, Portfolio Director at Specialised Exhibitions (a division of Montgomery Group).

Anderson points out that not only can visitors gain pertinent information from the Securex South Africa exhibitors on best practices for ensuring an all-inclusive security profile, but the free-to-attend sessions at the Securex Seminar Theatre provide additional opportunities to uncover current technology trends and legislation.

“We are also, once again, hosting the SAIDSA Techman Competition, the Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPAs), the K9 demos, and the drone demonstration area. These elements all contribute to a comprehensive all-round expo experience for everyone involved in researching and specifying security products and services,” says Anderson.

Securex South Africa 2025 is co-located with A-OSH EXPO, Facilities Management Expo, and Firexpo. “This co-location is a big time-saver for visitors looking for holistic solutions for their facilities. To learn more about Securex South Africa, visit www.securex.co.za,” says Anderson.

Organisations wishing to exhibit at Securex South Africa 2025 can contact the Securex South Africa team at [email protected] or [email protected] to book a space or capitalise on a sponsorship opportunity.
