AlertMedia Releases 2025 Threat Outlook Report to Help Organizations Enhance Business Resilience and Risk Management Strategies

AUSTIN, Texas: AlertMedia, the world’s leading threat intelligence, emergency communication, and travel risk management provider, today released its highly anticipated 2025 Threat Outlook report, Emerging Trends in the Threat Landscape, which offers detailed insights concerning global business risks to guide resilience planning in 2025 and beyond. The report, now in its third year, sheds light on significant trends shaping the risk landscape, including accelerating climate change, economic instability, rising cyber threats, and geopolitical conflicts, among others.

Drawing from data and expert analysis, AlertMedia’s annual Threat Outlook details the impacts of “The Cascade Effect,” where individual threats trigger widespread repercussions across industries and regions. This year’s findings also emphasize the need for organizations to adopt comprehensive, proactive strategies to protect personnel, maintain operations, and enhance resilience amid growing volatility.

“Today’s interconnected world makes organizations more vulnerable to a variety of threats,” said Sara Pratley, AlertMedia’s Senior Vice President of Global Intelligence. “With critical events increasing in scale and complexity, Emerging Trends in the Threat Landscape equips businesses with insights to anticipate, prepare for, and respond to the uncertainties ahead.”

Emerging Trends in the Threat Landscape explores six prominent threat trends that influenced employee safety, physical security, and business continuity in 2024, and will continue to shape preparedness efforts in 2025:

• Climate Extremes: Unprecedented climate impacts, including record-breaking heat, floods, and storms that disrupt supply chains and infrastructure.
• Rising Global Election Tensions: In 2025, high-visibility elections will continue amid escalating political tensions and violence.
• Concurrent Wars and Geopolitical Strife: Continued conflicts and geopolitical tensions, including concurrent wars, are expected to intensify, impacting security and global supply chains.
• Economic Uncertainty: With high inflation, labor strikes, and economic volatility, businesses face challenges to stability and workforce retention.
• Cybersecurity Threats: Ransomware and data breaches have surged, exposing companies to severe operational and reputational risks.
• Infrastructure Vulnerabilities: Aging infrastructure combined with digital system reliance poses serious risks to business continuity.
