At security essen 2024, 500 exhibitors from 36 countries will be presenting their innovations for greater security in companies, private households and public spaces. These include, for example, AI-supported robot dogs that can go on patrol and monitor premises. Or stab-resistant pullovers that protect the wearer from dangerous injuries in the event of a knife attack. Demand is high: the security market in Germany alone generated sales of over 31 billion euros last year. That was an increase of 9.7 percent compared to the previous year.
