Countries covered: Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia’s Homeland Security market is unlike any other market in the world. It is the only country whose very survival is threatened by terrorism resulting from both internal (homegrown infiltration of Al Qaeda and the Shia minority) and external forces (e.g. the threat of a nuclear Iran, an annual Hajj pilgrimage of millions, the security of 24% of the world’s oil reserves).

Recession or not, Saudi Arabia will continue to mobilize all resources to maintain and strengthen highly effective Homeland Security - Homeland Defense infrastructure. With nearly unlimited monetary resources the Kingdom created a complex maze of 24 redundant Homeland Security - Homeland Defense organizations numbering more than 250,000 people.

This landmark report represents several researcher years, dozens of interviews, and in-depth analysis of thousands of documents; the resulting produce is a comprehensive roadmap of this huge and intriguing Homeland Security market.

Some highlights include:

Detailed deciphering of the complex multi-tier, inter-dependent, Saudi organizations, employing over 250,000 people, and devoted exclusively to HLS - making major procurement decisions
18 HLS sub-segment market forecasts and analysis (e.g. Aviation Security, Counter-terror Intel, Maritime, Saudi Oil & Gas security, Ministry of Interior, Private Sector security, IT)
