Genetec Inc., the global pioneer in enterprise physical security software, releases retail-specific findings from its 2026 State of Physical Security Report. Based on responses from retail professionals worldwide, the research shows retailers increasingly view physical security as a business function that supports operations, employee safety, and modernisation efforts—not solely loss prevention.

While retailers continue to manage everyday security challenges across stores, many are expanding how they use physical security data to improve decision-making, increase operational efficiency, and get more value from existing technology investments.
