[June 19, 2013] Research and Markets Adds Report: Homeland Security and Emergency Management Market - 2018 Tweet Jun 19, 2013 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Homeland Security and Emergency Management Market -2018" report to its offerings. In a release, Research and Markets noted that report highlights include: The Global Homeland Security Market is estimated to be $415.53 billion in 2013. The threat of cross border terrorism, cybercrime, piracy, drug trade, human trafficking, internal dissent, separatist movements has been a driving factor for the homeland security sector. The sector is highly competitive with a host of industry participants vying for contracts and the tightening financial situation in most western countries is expected to increase competition. Budget cuts in most of the western countries are anticipated to have minimal impact on the homeland security market; however, spending on cyber security, surveillance systems, IT and communications systems is set to increase. The industry is fragmented and most of the tier-1 players are from US and Europe. These firms have the required know-how and technology and have an active presence across the globe thus making the major share holders in this growing market. Increase in merger and acquisition, technology transfer, joint development and production and partnerships and offset agreements between western and other developing nations are anticipated.
