Praetorian Digital, the leading platform for learning and content in the public safety and local government markets, announced it has integrated its market-leading online learning and digital media community properties under the Lexipol brand, following its February acquisition by The Riverside Company and merger with Lexipol, the leading provider of state-specific policies and training for public safety agencies.
The decision to operate under the Lexipol brand was made to convey the unification of the companies under a single, shared mission: to use content and technology to create safer communities and empower the men, women and organizations that serve them.

The combined company is uniquely positioned to serve as a single, comprehensive platform addressing critical education, training and policy needs among public safety and local government agencies. With the merger, the company’s reach now includes more than 6,300 police departments, fire departments and municipalities, with nearly 2 million public safety professionals and local government leaders who rely on its properties for mission-critical information, training and policies.
The company’s digital media properties, including PoliceOne.com, FireRescue1.com,
EMS1.com and CorrectionsOne.com, will continue to operate under their current brands, while its learning and policy brands will bear both the Lexipol and vertical brand names. The combination greatly expands the combined reach and capabilities for public safety departments, municipalities, and the companies that serve them.
“Lexipol is a strong and storied brand within the public safety and local government sphere, and I am excited to be moving forward as a company under a unified banner, buoyed by the strength of our vertical digital media brands,” said Lexipol CEO Alex Ford. “Operating as one corporate brand allows us to build upon the combination of strengths from our respective companies. It will provide departments and municipalities a much-needed partner to help them better protect their communities, while arming our marketing customers with increased reach and resources to drive ever-better results and solve even more complex business challenges.”
