Gallagher Security seeks input for 2027 Security Industry Trends Report

Posted to News on Saturday, June 13, 2026 Share:

WHAT’S KEEPING security sector leaders awake at night? Which technologies are gaining real traction? Where is the industry heading next? Gallagher Security is inviting security professionals from around the world to help answer those questions by sharing their views in the company’s annual global security industry research project, which is now open for contributions.

Bringing together insights from consultants, integrators, end users, IT leaders and channel partners alike, the research will inform Gallagher Security’s 2027 Security Industry Trends Report: a free of charge, ungated resource purpose-designed to help the industry benchmark priorities, uncover emerging shifts and plan more confidently for the future.

More than just a snapshot in time, the results of this research have become a trusted industry resource used by organisations across the globe to guide planning, validate strategy and better understand the forces shaping modern security environments.

Valuable initiative

“This project is built on a firm belief that’s deeply important to us at Gallagher Security,” affirmed the company’s CEO Mark Junge. “When we share knowledge openly, the entire industry benefits.”

Junge continued: “Every year, we hear from professionals across multiple industries who tell us they use our Security Industry Trends Report to help shape strategy, navigate change and better understand where the market is heading. That’s what makes this initiative so valuable. It directly reflects the collective voice of the global security community.”

Further, Junge noted: “This year, we’re encouraging even more practitioners to contribute their insights and experiences. Every response helps to strengthen the quality of the research and ensures the report continues to be a practical and relevant tool the industry can learn from as one.”

Evolving challenges

The research project explores the evolving challenges, opportunities and innovations shaping the security landscape, including changing organisational priorities, technology adoption, operational pressures and the future role of security within modern businesses.

To make participation simpler, Gallagher has redesigned the survey to be faster, clearer and more mobile friendly. Contributors only need ten minutes to share their perspectives on the current state of the industry.

As stated, the insights gathered through the project will form the foundation of Gallagher Security’s 2027 Security Industry Trends Report to be released later this financial year as a freely available resource for the entire industry.

Security professionals across all sectors are encouraged to take part and contribute to the global conversation that’s shaping the future of security.
