Tyumen-based companies have doubled their investments in DDoS protection services since the beginning of 2026 compared to the previous year, according to MTS. The surge in demand is primarily driven by the need to maintain continuous business operations amidst persistent cyber threats targeting regional organizations.
The fuel and energy sector accounts for approximately 60% of all sales in the regional cybersecurity market, focusing on protecting remote industrial facilities. The utilities sector, including energy providers and billing centers, follows with a 28% share, while government organizations represent 12% of the total investment.
Local businesses are increasingly adopting domestic solutions to monitor internet traffic, perform data backups, and secure corporate email services, websites, and applications. These measures aim to prevent operational downtime and mitigate financial and reputational risks associated with successful cyberattacks.
Anastasia Mikhailova, Director of MTS in the Tyumen region, noted that the adoption of local technologies allows companies to optimize hardware utilization and avoid capital expenditures on additional servers. This approach supports the integration of IoT, predictive analytics, and cloud computing within the regional industrial landscape.
