The diplomats toured the exhibition and noted the high level of organization.

Business Program

The business program events ran alongside the Securika Moscow exhibition for 3 days, during which more than 165 speakers delivered presentations at 30 events. Experts discussed Russia’s experience in addressing security challenges across various sectors: industry, construction, transportation, retail, housing and utilities, and urban infrastructure, covering both technological issues and regulatory, design, and organizational matters.

The first day of Securika Moscow 2026 set a high bar for the exhibition’s business program. Discussions centered on topics that are currently shaping the development of the security industry: digitalization, artificial intelligence, biometrics, system integration, technological sovereignty, and stricter design requirements.

One of the day’s key discussions was the strategic session “The Physical Security Market in the Digital Age”, held in the Forum hall.

The session was moderated by Alexey Bogdanov, Ph.D. in Engineering, Associate Professor, and Deputy Director General of the State Hermitage Museum. Experts discussed 2026 trends in access control systems, video analytics, biometrics, and fire safety, as well as the issue of trust in AI solutions and approaches to establishing industry expertise centers. One of the key takeaways from the session was the idea that the boundary between physical and cybersecurity is effectively disappearing.

Another important event on the first day was the “PROPROEKT” forum, held in the Main Hall and moderated by Gennady Dorofeev (RUBEZH). Experts discussed changes in legislation, the national procurement regime, the status of trusted software, and the situation regarding the training of fire protection system designers.

Expert presentations were also held on the first day. Andrey Khristoforov, Director of Product Development at ITV, spoke about the development of video analytics. According to his data, the market volume for video analytics with AI reached 25.8 billion rubles by the end of 2025. The expert noted that over the past 6–7 years, facial recognition had been the main driver of the market; however, this segment has now shrunk significantly amid increased regulatory oversight. It is being replaced by new technological scenarios.

Anton Annenkov, Executive Director of Pozhtekhnika LLC, spoke about digitalization and AI in fire safety systems. The expert emphasized that the industry is moving toward the integration of basic fire protection systems with external active sensors and the development of predictive scenarios that allow for the identification of fire risk before it actually occurs.

The topic of biometrics was discussed by Evgeny Ermolenko, Director of the Product Management Department at the Center for Biometric Technologies.

According to him, one of the main trends of 2026 is the growth of public trust in the Unified Biometric System. According to the data presented, 82% of citizens support the use of biometrics in anti-fraud tools, and biometrics itself is increasingly perceived as the most reliable method of online identity verification.

On the first day, the Dialog Arena hosted a new format for the exhibition, the track “Comprehensive Security Systems: Different Roles, Common Result: Vendors”. The moderator was Alexey Pripadchev, managing partner of Montblanc IT Group. Participants discussed not the abstract concept of “integrating everything with everything,” but the real limitations and capabilities of integrated security systems at facilities.

As part of the business program on the second day, experts discussed issues of transportation security, critical infrastructure, the development of civil unmanned aerial systems, as well as practical and regulatory changes in the field of fire protection and firefighting. The business agenda for the second day demonstrated that the security market is increasingly moving toward a comprehensive approach: on the one hand, through digitalization, interagency data exchange, the development of BAS, and the resilience of critical infrastructure; on the other hand, through stricter requirements for the design, operation, and justification of fire protection solutions.

One of the central events of the second day was the session “Fire Protection Systems: Standards and Practice 2025–2026”, which took place in the Forum Hall. The session was moderated by Anastasia Shakirova, Director of the “TAKIR” Training Center. Experts discussed changes in the regulatory framework, practical challenges in developing design documentation, fire risk issues, as well as the gap between the formally required set of documents and the designer’s actual tasks. On April 23, the Main Hall hosted an open meeting of the Commission on Transport Security and Safety of the Public Council under the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation. The session was moderated by Vyacheslav Kerov, Chairman of the Commission. Tatyana Gorovaya, Chairwoman of the Public Council under the Russian Ministry of Transport, addressed the participants with a welcoming speech. She emphasized that the professional community’s participation in such events helps formulate proposals for government agencies, identify pressing issues, and apply best practices to the development of the transport industry. Experts noted the growing role of interagency data exchange and digital management in transport security.

The Dialogue Arena hosted a session titled “Unmanned Aerial Systems: From Industry Development to Practical Business Solutions”, dedicated to heavy UAS, regulatory barriers, airworthiness, and state support mechanisms. During the conference, experts discussed the growth dynamics of the Russian UAS market, noting a 25% increase in the number of registered drones over the past year and growth projections of up to 350 billion rubles by 2035.

Special attention was given to the transition to practical application: from 60 to 150 scenarios for using drones in forestry and logistics, including the transport of cargo by heavy UAVs over distances of up to 100 km. Participants also discussed regulatory barriers, airworthiness issues, and government support measures, such as subsidized leasing, cashback for robot implementation, and funding under national technological leadership projects.

Another notable event on the second day was the session “Firefighting from a First-Person Perspective: Standards. Digital. Design. Technologies”, held in the Forum hall and moderated by Natalia Khazova, CEO of Pozhtekhnika LLC. Opening the session, Natalia Khazova noted that the gas and automatic fire suppression industry is going through a difficult period: high key interest rates, geopolitical constraints, and infrastructure limitations have slowed down a number of sectors, but at the same time have given manufacturers time to refine technologies and adapt to new conditions.

For the first time as part of the business program, a session titled “Safety of Critical Infrastructure: Regulatory Requirements and Effective Solutions” was held on the second day. The event examined the specifics of implementing legislation regarding the security of critical infrastructure facilities, key factors in selecting solutions during project reviews, the application of domestic technologies, effective approaches to implementing information security systems for automated control systems, and the protection of critical infrastructure from cyber incidents.

The third day of the business program focused on predictive cybersecurity, the transformation of data centers amid import substitution and growing AI workloads, as well as the development of the big data market as a foundation for new management and security scenarios. The final day of the exhibition summarized this year’s key themes: the market is increasingly moving toward comprehensive, data-driven, and technologically mature security models, where physical protection, cyber resilience, AI, and infrastructure reliability no longer exist in isolation. While just a few years ago the focus was on individual products and isolated implementation scenarios, today the discussion centers on holistic architectures: predictive cybersecurity models, resilient and secure data centers, data as the foundation for risk management and automated decision-making, and physical security, which is inextricably linked to cyber and infrastructure resilience.
