This year marks the 24th annual show of the SECON & eGISEC 2025 exhibition. As Asia’s only integrated security exhibition covering both the physical and cybersecurity fields, expectations and anticipations are running high for both the exhibitors and attendees.
“As cybersecurity threats become more sophisticated, we are eager to discover new technological approaches in AI-driven security, cloud security, and security automation,” said Junghyun Kim, Marketing Director at AhnLab, an endpoint and network security provider and an exhibitor, at the event.
“Additionally, networking with security professionals will provide a valuable opportunity to share experiences and discuss potential collaborations,” Junghyun added.
The event spreads over 28,000+ m² of space, has over 400 exhibitors signed up, and is expecting more than 30,000 visitors from around the world.
While security is of significant concern to companies and governments everywhere, global interest is reaching a fevered pitch given current political issues and the emergence of China’s AI model “DeepSeek,” according to event organizers.
SECON & eGISEC 2025 is being held in Korea given its key role as a testbed for validating and demonstrating new technologies in the security market. The exhibition will be held from March 19 to 21 at Hall 3-5 in Kintex, Korea.
“We are excited about the opportunity to engage with not only industry experts but also international buyers. Understanding global market demands and security trends while establishing networks with overseas companies and buyers will be invaluable in expanding the international reach of INEB’s security solutions,” said Haeun JI at iNeb Inc, a provider of encryption and data security and an exhibitor.
Two of the most intriguing pre-show glimpses into the future are the expansion of edge devices with on-device AI, and the rise of converged security. Comprehensive, integrated protection for physical and cyber elements of the same entity is crucial for complex systems like smart cities, smart cars, and other interconnected environments. But converged security also applies to virtualized environments with complex systems and both real-world and virtual world components.
“In particular, we are eager to observe how cybersecurity is evolving in response to advancements in AI, big data, and the metaverse and how these technologies are shaping the future of the industry,” said Haeun.
Other areas of prime concern to be covered at the exhibition include cloud and IoT security, smart city security, automotive security, and maritime security, among others.
Beyond the exhibits, SECON & eGISEC 2025 will feature an extensive conference and seminar program. This program is produced in collaboration with leading institutions and industry experts and presents 30+ tracks and 100+ sessions. Topics range from industrial security and integrated CCTV control to aviation security, counterterrorism strategies, and personal data protection and beyond.
