On-premise environments still represented 58.15% of spending in 2025, requiring security teams to maintain legacy controls while cloud security expands rapidly. Large enterprises accounted for 67.75% of revenue, showing that sophisticated security budgets remain concentrated among major institutions. Egypt is expanding its talent pipeline, including a target to provide digital and cybersecurity skills training to 250,000 people by FY29, but capability depth remains essential for complex SOC and MDR delivery. **Data used:** 58.15% on-premise share (2025); 250,000-person digital and cybersecurity training target by FY29 **So what:** Vendors that simplify migration, provide managed expertise, and lower entry costs can address structural adoption barriers. #### Q: How does Egypt compare with relevant regional cybersecurity markets? **A:** Egypt ranks third by 2025 market size among the selected comparison group of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Qatar. Its USD 230 million market remains well below Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but Egypt's 11.92% forecast CAGR is higher than Saudi Arabia and the UAE at 10.66%, Morocco at 8.67%, and Qatar at 6.12%. Egypt therefore combines a smaller current revenue pool with faster expected expansion, while its Tier 1 status in the Global Cybersecurity Index supports institutional credibility and policy commitment. **Data used:** 3rd rank among selected peers (2025); 11.92% Egypt CAGR (2026-2031) **So what:** Egypt offers a growth-oriented regional position for vendors seeking scale beyond mature Gulf procurement markets. #### Q: Which demand-side developments are creating the strongest cybersecurity requirement? **A:** Digital payments and telecom expansion are materially increasing Egypt's cyber-exposure surface. InstaPay processed nearly 1.5 billion transactions in 2024, while four mobile operators received 5G licenses totaling USD 675 million. In 2026, a further 410 MHz of spectrum was allocated under an agreement worth nearly USD 3.5 billion. These developments create more digital identities, connected endpoints, cloud workloads, mobile infrastructure, and transaction flows requiring protection, favoring identity security, fraud controls, network defense, cloud security, threat monitoring, and incident-response capabilities. **Data used:** Nearly 1.5 billion InstaPay transactions (2024); USD 675 million 5G licensing value (2024) **So what:** Security vendors should align offerings with payment, telecom, cloud, and digital-service infrastructure rather than treating cybersecurity as stand-alone IT procurement. #### Q: Which regulatory factors should market participants prioritize? **A:** Market participants should prioritize the National Cybersecurity Strategy 2023-2027, Cybercrime Law No. 175 of 2018, and Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020. Together, these frameworks strengthen expectations around cyber resilience, legal compliance, data protection, incident management, organizational readiness, and capacity development. Egypt's inclusion in Tier 1 of the 2024 Global Cybersecurity Index further demonstrates strong national commitment across legal, technical, organizational, capacity-development, and cooperation pillars. Providers that integrate technical security with governance and compliance support are consequently better positioned in regulated procurement. **Data used:** National Cybersecurity Strategy period 2023-2027; Cybercrime Law No. 175 of 2018 **So what:** Compliance capability should be embedded into product design, implementation, monitoring, and managed-security propositions. --- ## Table of Contents # CHAPTER 14 - Table of Contents ### Market Report Structure Comprehensive coverage across three strategic phases — Market Assessment, Go-To-Market Strategy, and Survey — delivering end-to-end insights from market analysis and execution roadmap to customer demand validation. ## Market Assessment Phase Supply-side and competitive intelligence covering market sizing, segmentation, competitive dynamics, regulatory landscape, and future forecasts. ### 1.
