$1.26

Billion

While the Philippines cybersecurity market is forecasted to reach $387.10 million by 2028, investments in cybersecurity is poised to grow, driven by the country’s regulatory frameworks like the General Data Protection Regulation and the Philippines Data Protection Authority. To top it all, the Philippine Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) has stepped up its efforts concerning cybersecurity infrastructure that also includes capability development initiatives for all national agencies and local government units.

Organised by Tradepass, the 5th edition of PhilSec on 1 – 2 July 2025 in Manila will provide direct access to country’s thriving market.

Why Philippines

With the country making bold advances in the tech sphere, the need for cutting-edge cybersecurity measures cannot be overlooked. At a time when software sales in the Philippines is projected to reach $1.26 billion by 2028 and the adoption of emerging technologies like AI, Big Data, Fintech and others is reaching an all-time high, the cybersecurity market is getting a rampant push.

While the country’s top position in ASEAN in facing the highest number of cyber-attacks is alarming enough, reports also suggest that 29% of Filipino companies have experience a drastic increase in security incidents. All these developments have together powered a very fast-growing cybersecurity market.
