KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

Play Audio Listen to Audio Version

The global law enforcement software market was valued at USD 1.49 billion in 2023 and is projected to be worth USD 1.69 billion in 2024 and reach USD 5.13 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 14.9% during the forecast period.


Law enforcement software improves policing practices, builds community trust, helps reduce human error, and improves public safety and security. Demand for law enforcement software is increasing due to a rise in criminal activities such as ransomware attacks.


The software gives law enforcement the authority to control critical data for analysis, such as criminal databases and records, enabling access to data irrespective of the time and location. One of the major factors driving the growth of the software market in the coming years is the increasing demand for effective communication in law enforcement. This is important to ensure the safety of the law enforcement officer and increase success rates. Rising crime rates are forcing government officials and law enforcement agencies to use cutting-edge technology to improve public safety infrastructure.


Community-oriented policing is a strategy considered by law enforcement agencies given that it allows them to work closely with communities and improve their quality of life. Police officers and citizens are encouraged to work together to prevent crime through community-based policing. Cutting-edge technologies such as smart transportation, security equipment, and smart energy meters are used to build smart cities. Besides, governments and large corporations are investing in various technologies, such as smart utilities, public transport, and housing.


Several law enforcement software providers experienced significant losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which impacted the market negatively during the initial months of 2020. However, the market began to grow in the last quarter of 2020 as police and other law enforcement personnel adopted digitalization in their investigative procedures. Increasing demand for cloud-based solutions coupled with remote working increased the industry’s growth potential. During the pandemic, the cybercrime rate went up by 600% and due to this, there was a surge in product demand. The software was consistently installed across a wide range of public safety organizations across various countries to reduce the crime rate and protect against future incidents. The increasing criminal activities during the pandemic escalated the product demand, driving the law enforcement software market growth.


Law Enforcement Software Market Trends


Adoption of AR/VR for Law Enforcement Training


Law enforcement agencies use AR/VR tools for training purposes as well as for crime scene investigation and courtroom presentations. AR/VR tools have the potential to transform training, and improve skills, which makes it easier for enforcement officers. Companies in the market are focusing on providing innovative tools to enforcement agencies. For instance, in April 2018, Axom developed a system that is designed to train the police in a range of skills, including de-escalation of potentially violent situations and dealing with a public with hearing impairment or Alzheimer’s.


Apart from training, Augmented Reality (AR) is useful for officers as it helps them to stay aware of what is happening in their area and enhances their understanding of the situation with overlaid computer images. In China, a startup Xloong Technology, launched AR glasses in May 2017, that allow police to access license plate recognition functions and facial recognition function in real time. The product also helps the officers to identify suspects through data analytics. Furthermore, in the U.S., police officers use a system called Apex officer, that helps enforcement officials to train to respond to call where mental health is an issue.


Thus, the increasing adoption of AR/VR tools is driving the market growth.

Law Enforcement Software Market Growth Factors


Increasing Demand for Smart Devices Across Enforcement Agencies to Propel Market Growth


Law enforcement organizations already use smart devices such as body-worn cameras and other devices to monitor and keep police officers safe in the field. A large volume of data is being generated through smart devices, and lots of data can potentially be used for investigation. Devices such as voice assistants and video doorbells have the capability to capture incidental going on in their surroundings. These are gradually becoming valuable sources of intelligence for detectives and enforcement officials searching for evidence.


In the U.S., data from Alexa Smart Speaker was used in a classroom to assist in a double murder case. Furthermore, data generated by the Fitbit fitness tracker is used by enforcement agencies to investigate criminal cases. More than 4,000 police forces have entered a partnership with video doorbell manufacturer Ring to access data captured from their device to assist with crime prevention and detection.


The data generated through smart devices is used for investigating criminal activities. This is boosting the law enforcement software market share.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Government Regulations Regarding Data Security May Hamper the Market Growth


Strict government regulations on data security are restricting the market growth. Law enforcement agencies across the globe have a strong focus on intelligence and security. Intelligence offers law enforcement agencies with an actual means of solving crimes. On the other hand, security ensures that confidential information does not fall into wrong hands. The surveillance by law enforcement agencies assists in gathering huge information about any criminal activity before the event happens, in turn helping with establishing the occurrence of the crime.


Law enforcement software providers must adhere to government regulations and compliances to provide apt controls for the protection of crucial information. Some of these regulations comprise the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) in the U.S. and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe. The software is deployed for the management of personal information and helps law enforcers in the detection, investigation, or prosecution of criminal offences.


The above-mentioned factors may hamper the market growth.
