The rising need of network security infrastructure further drives the demand for network security firewall.

Since the start of 2020, the technology industry has been witnessing a declining trend due to the COVID-19 crisis. The MEA is expected to experience a significant impact of the pandemic in the next few months due to non-availability of retailers, suppliers, online and authorized sales representatives, and manufacturers. Many companies have halted their production activities and are subsequently disrupting the import of components and equipment. Thus, the players operating in this market are projected to register a swift decline in the supply of network security firewall components in the future.
