“Global Competitiveness Yearbook 2022”, the most comprehensive report on competition in the world, ranks the Kingdom second in cybersecurity. Known as a leading model, the Saudi model in cybersecurity continues to make qualitative leaps in international digital indicators, as it is considered to be an example emulated by other countries.
This achievement comes courtesy of a strong boost in global leadership under the Kingdom’s vision 2030, as well as an embodiment of the superiority of the Saudi model in cybersecurity globally.
By leveraging the 21st century’s most important asset, data, the Kingdom intends to grow its economy and enhance its public services. Although its progressive data policy encourages data collection, active use, and open sharing of data, there are risks associated with it.
“More than 2 million cyber-attacks were recorded within a month during the Hajj season. E-attacks have doubled during this year” said Dr. Abdul Fattah Mashat, Deputy Minister of Hajj and Umrah. It should also be noted that “Cybercrime will cost the world $10.5 trillion annually by 2025. More than the damage caused from natural disasters and more profitable than all major illegal drugs globally combined” said Michael Dell, The CEO and Chairman at Dell Technologies
Technology is the most important component of government services, so Saudi Arabia is most often targeted. Issues such as data loss by exploited vulnerabilities result in 60% of organizations experiencing data loss, and 67% are unsure as to whether they will be able to recover their data and systems completely. Using cybersecurity laws and regulations, the Kingdom aims to provide a safe and trusted environment for individuals, businesses, and public agencies to participate in the digital economy in a confident way.
