With discussion of the innovative system replacing VPNs in the middle east, the modern technology takes a ‘zero trust, always verify’ model, expected to be highly sought after in 2023 and beyond.

The innovations in technology, all of which will be on display at GISEC Global 2023, comes off the back of predictions that the regions cybersecurity market is set to double in value over the next five years, growing from US$20 billion in 2022 to US$44.7 billion in 2027, clocking 17% annual growth.

This is all of course, to combat the growing sophistication of cyber-attacks taking place both around the Middle East and across the world. Placing more importance on the discussions taking place at GISEC Global 2023 now, than ever before.
