Bangladesh became a middle-income country in 2015 and has since maintained a consistent GDP growth of 6% or more. With a population of over 170 million, half of whom are under 25 years old, the country is making great progress.

By 2025, it is projected that 34 million people will join the Middle and  a fluent Class, highlighting the fast economic growth. The government has developed over 1900+e-services, taking advantage of the large internet user base of 130 million and more than 150 million biometric-registered SIM cards. This has resulted in a significant increase in personal data.

Cyberattacks are becoming a bigger threat in Bangladesh due to the increase in personally identifiable information (PII) in the digital world.
