BT Al Saudia, a leading system integrator, professional and managed services provider, announced its launch as the first in the market to offer Next-Generation MSS (Managed Security Services) in Saudi Arabia supporting customers in protecting and managing their network and IT infrastructure by security experts 24x7.

According to Symantec’s Internet Security Threat report, Saudi Arabia is the most “impacted” country in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region in terms of ransomware and with the emerging cyber threats, the need to get secured is ever growing. Organizations of all sizes, in all industries are struggling to secure their most critical assets.

Martin Sutherland, CEO of BT Al Saudia, said: “Being one of the top managed services providers in the Kingdom for nearly 30 years, we understand the challenges and pain-points of customers here. BT Al Saudia is transforming in-line with the Saudi Vision 2030 to help organizations innovate and invest in the changing business environment. As part of a global leader and trusted brand in security, we bring our local Managed Security Services so customers can leverage from a business-focused, cost-effective and scalable solution that evolves with their needs giving them flexibility and control while safeguarding against cyber risks.”

BT Al Saudia Security offers businesses with a highly mature 24x7 detection and response capability managed by security experts to proactively detect, respond and mitigate imminent attacks safeguarding customers’ network and IT infrastructure while keeping all the logs securely within the country meeting Kingdom’s rules and legislations. These services come with the most stringent SLAs in the region.

Mohammed Khedir, Head of Cybersecurity: “As cyber-attacks continue to mature, and technologies keep advancing, so should your cybersecurity approach. Unlike traditional MSSPs, who often focus on perimeter monitoring and log collection, we provide necessary business context to allow organizations to effectively assess the practical implications of a risk on its business.”

BT Al Saudia Security wraps experienced people and efficient processes around leading technologies for tailored Next-Generation SOC capabilities including Managed Security Devices (Firewall/Web/IPS), Endpoint Protection, Vulnerability Management and Threat Intelligence.
