The Atlanta show in 2026 drew more than 16,500 registrants from 100 countries and more than 530 exhibitors. Attendance grew 17 percent, giving the annual ASIS International gathering a substantial international audience alongside its US base.

GSX is a conference with an expo, with roughly 200 education sessions spanning intelligence, investigations, executive protection, governance and organizational resilience. Physical security remains prominent, but AI, enterprise security risk management and the business case for security increasingly shape the program. Learning continues on four exhibit floor stages, including the Threat Intelligence Zone and School Security Zone. That combination suits security leaders who need to compare equipment and services while discussing how their organizations should use them.

How it compares

Electronic Security Expo - ESXTampa, 2,000
This show: Global Security Exchange (GSX)Atlanta
ISC EastNew York, 6,536

ISC in Las Vegas is the larger product marketplace. Its 2026 show brought together more than 29,000 security professionals and more than 750 exhibiting brands. For integrators, distributors and buyers comparing a wide spread of access control, video, connected buildings and other security technologies, that concentration makes the spring trip particularly useful. GSX adds more weight to the security management responsibilities behind the purchase: risk, resilience, investigations and leadership across public and private organizations.

ISC East gives Northeast buyers a New York meeting point later in the year, combining security products with public safety and an education program backed by SIA and ASIS NYC. It is a practical regional choice when the people and suppliers you need are concentrated in that market. Electronic Security Expo - ESX takes a different route. Its early summer gathering centers on electronic security and life safety dealers and integrators, with business operations, recurring revenue and leadership as defining concerns. Choose GSX when the objective stretches across an enterprise security program and a global network of practitioners; choose ESX when running and growing a security services business is the central question.

GSX is the right trip for security leaders who need to connect technology decisions with enterprise risk, resilience and the people responsible for both.
