According to a report by MarketsandMarkets, the Middle East cybersecurity market size is expected to grow to USD 22.14 Billion by 2022.

Reflecting this dynamic nature of the cybersecurity landscape and the continuous threats to businesses, Kaspersky Lab expects investment in strengthening the IT security infrastructure to increase by 18 percent for both enterprise and small business for the next three years”
