The cybersecurity services market in Bangladesh has expanded rapidly since the 2016 Bangladesh Bank cyber-heist, which catalysed both the issuance of the Bangladesh Bank ICT Security Guideline and a wider tightening of vendor due diligence in regulated industries. Banks now run mandatory annual penetration tests, SWIFT compliance assessments and external SOC monitoring; mobile financial services operators such as bKash and Nagad maintain dedicated security operations teams; and the ready-made garments sector is following retail buyer audit pressure into formal SOC 2 and ISO 27001 programmes. Local boutiques dominate offensive security and red-team work, while the global integrators lead managed SOC programmes that combine SIEM tooling with offshore analyst pools.
