Valued at around 65.3 billion USD in 2024, the Asia-Pacific cybersecurity market is expected to nearly double its current market size in another five years, as per reports. This is largely owing to the evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats as existing network infrastructure is becoming more prone to cyberattacks, and the strict legislative laws being enforced relatedly worldwide.

In our ongoing commitment to providing market insights, we’ve identified a curated list of must-attend industry events for economic development organizations seeking to engage with the high-growth cybersecurity industry in the APAC region.
