The rise in ransomware attacks is expected to fuel the growth of the law enforcement software market. Ransomware encrypts sensitive data of victims, holding it hostage and demanding a payment for its release. These attacks have significantly impacted many law enforcement and government agencies, resulting in the loss of years of data and potentially jeopardizing crucial cases. For example, in November 2023, the National Cyber Security Centre, a government agency in the UK, reported receiving 2,005 cyberattacks in 2023, reflecting a nearly 64% increase from the previous year's total of 1,226. Consequently, the uptick in ransomware attacks will drive the growth of the law enforcement software market.

The growing number of IoT devices dedicated to public safety is driving the expansion of the law enforcement software market. IoT devices are nonstandard computing devices that can connect wirelessly to a network to provide data. Intent-based networking enhances network management by considering not only the technologies involved but also the IT systems, personnel, data, and services that support IT operations. IoT devices, including surveillance cameras, license plate recognition systems, body cameras, and sensory devices, enhance safety measures while supplying vital data to law enforcement software. For example, in September 2024, IoT Analytics, a Germany-based provider of market insights and strategic business intelligence for the Internet of Things, projected in its State of IoT Summer 2024 report that the number of connected IoT devices would increase by 13%, reaching 18.8 billion by the end of 2024. This is an increase from the 16.6 billion devices recorded at the end of 2023, which represented a 15% rise from 2022. Therefore, the increasing number of IoT devices for public safety is expected to propel the growth of the law enforcement software market.

Technological advancement is a significant trend in the law enforcement software market. Major companies in this sector are creating sophisticated law enforcement technology platforms to facilitate more effective policing and enhance public safety.
