The 5th Gulf Conference and Exhibition for Cybersecurity Challenges
The growing needs for cybersecurity have emerged from government and industry commitments to operate safely and protect their infrastructures from cyberattacks and other forms of security threats. As a result, many studies have anticipated a booming in the cybersecurity sector over the coming years. For example, a study conducted by Global Market Insights estimated the value of the cybersecurity industry to reach $300 billion globally by 2024. The pace of competition among major firms in the cybersecurity domain is intensifying, especially in the Middle East and North Africa. Experts project a significant increase in the value of the cybersecurity market in these regions which will be worth nearly $2.89 billion by 2026 with an annual growth rate of 7.92%.
