The 14th edition of CYSEC Kuwait 2025 will take place on February 12, 2025. With the cybersecurity market in Kuwait projected to reach USD93.12 million by 2025, it will provide a platform for addressing the nation’s cyber security challenges.
As Kuwait makes strides to bolster its digital infrastructure, the Kuwaiti Government is prioritising the protection of critical infrastructure and sensitive data across vital sectors such as finance, energy, and telecommunications. The growing cyber threat landscape calls for better resilience, and CYSEC Kuwait 2025 will provide the forum to discuss the way forward.
The Kuwaiti government has been actively investing in improving the nation’s cybersecurity infrastructure, including the establishment of the National Cybersecurity Center (NCSC) in 2022, aimed at protecting government networks and critical infrastructure assets.
Organised in collaboration with the National Cyber Security Center, CYSEC Kuwait 2025 will bring together government officials, industry leaders, and cybersecurity experts to explore the latest trends, share strategies, and drive solutions aimed at strengthening the nation’s digital defences.
The summit will also highlight the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors, with over five hours dedicated to networking opportunities. Delegates will have the chance to connect with thought leaders, industry pioneers, and potential partners to explore innovative cybersecurity solutions.
Notable speakers at the summit include Husain A ALNakkas, CIO, Kuwait National Assembly; Dr Arezou Harraf, Vice-chair, American Chamber of Kuwait; Professor Khalid Al-Begain, President, Kuwait College of Science and Technology; Abdulmajeed Al-Sabah, Head, Project-Risk & Compliance, Kuwait National Petroleum Company; Dr Shaheela Banu Abdul Majeed, Information Security and Compliance Officer and Auditor, Kuwait Gulf Oil Company; Iyad Atieh, CISO, Alghanim Industries; Yousef El-Kourdi, Group Head Of Information Technology, City Group Co.

CYSEC KUWAIT 2025 will also feature the CYSEC AWARDS 2024, honouring individuals and organisations that have demonstrated excellence in advancing cybersecurity solutions. The awards will be judged by a panel of esteemed industry experts, ensuring a rigorous and fair evaluation process.
In addition to its main agenda, CYSEC Kuwait 2025 will feature SHELEADS, a special segment that celebrates the achievements of women in tech.
