Event Overview:Cyber threats are constantly evolving and threatening to affect global organizations in their day to day activities. In a view of tackling such threats, the cost of implementing IT security solutions has significantly increased and expected to reach USD 101 billion in 2018 globally (Gartner). Middle East and North Africa (MENA) spending on cyber security technology and services is on pace to reach $13.43 billion by 2019, with an expected CAGR of 13.7% for the period 2013-2019. By 2019, 30% of large enterprises will increase their security consulting services spending as they transition into digital business.

With the advent of digitization among the countries of the Middle East and growing exposure to the risk of cyber-attacks, governments in the middle east have now directed their focus more on cybersecurity, releasing cybersecurity frameworks and mandating country-specific regulatory policies emphasizing on the need to have efficient monitoring and detection in place.

Considering cyber resilience as the key, and continuing the success of the previous editions, ITA Oman is hosting “The 6th Annual Regional Cybersecurity Summit” in collaboration with White Paper Summits (WPS) and Nispana Innovative Platforms. The 6th edition will cover a range of topics, highlighting the current trends and future threats, which are affecting the organizations & business effectiveness.

RCS Summit will bring over 350+ attendees from across the Middle East to form new partnerships, discuss new policies and identify latest technologies to combat cyber threats. The premium 2-day summit will also, host and engage the most promising and emerging regional & global firms, from critical national Infrastructure sectors including: Energy & Utilities, Defense & Aviation, Financial Institutions, Hospitality, Healthcare, Manufacturing and Government Institutions. The event format will feature keynote presentations, case studies, panel discussions and technology showcase & demos.

We look forward to meeting you at the 6th Regional Cybersecurity Summit 2017.
