Cybersecurity Statistics in Angola (2026)

Angola faces a significant cybersecurity workforce gap, with a need for approximately 1,500 skilled professionals to meet current and future threats. Despite efforts to expand digital infrastructure, only about 350 cybersecurity experts are employed, leaving a substantial shortfall. The government has increased cybersecurity budgets to around $25 million, aiming to strengthen defenses against rising cyber threats.

Cyber incidents in Angola have surged to over 3,200 cases, reflecting the growing digital dependency and vulnerabilities. Digital penetration has reached nearly 49%, but increased connectivity also means higher exposure to cyber attacks. Addressing the workforce gap and investing in cybersecurity infrastructure are critical for Angola's digital resilience and economic stability.
