OPSWAT confirms its participation at GITEX Global 2023
OPSWAT, a global leader in critical infrastructure protection (CIP) cybersecurity solutions, has announced its participation at GITEX Global 2023 at Dubai World Trade Centre, where it will show attendees how critical infrastructure can be secured through the company’s end-to-end IT/OT security solutions.
Under the theme, ‘Modernising Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP), OPSWAT will highlight the challenges in defending Middle Eastern countries’ evolving critical infrastructures and showcase the company’s proactive measures that can bring new confidence to the region’s OT security teams.
“Our GITEX theme is designed to emphasise that merely maintaining the status quo in cybersecurity is not enough,” said Sertan Selcuk, VP of Sales, Middle East, Turkey, Africa, and Pakistan, at OPSWAT (pictured).
“We must take bold steps to address current and future cyber threats that could compromise our infrastructure.”
Unlike other providers in the market, OPSWAT provides a single platform — built from the ground up — to protect against file-borne threats from USB, web traffic, storage, email, and API and delivers the zero-trust architecture needed to protect critical infrastructure. Furthermore, the company’s solutions can be deployed on a broader array of setups than any other industry player — in the cloud, on-premises, or air-gapped networks.
OPSWAT’s GITEX presence will feature a comprehensive CIP lab showing IT and OT solutions and how they work together to secure critical environments. The company’s solutions help organisations solve their most common challenges, including application security, cloud security, critical network security, supply chain security, endpoint management, security operations, and email security.
On the OT side of the lab, OPSWAT’s solutions enable safe and compliant usage of removable media transient devices and enforce unidirectional data transfers.
Making these integrated solutions unique is the power of OPSWAT’s zero-trust technologies on its single platform, providing Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR), Multiscanning, Proactive DLP, next-generation sandbox, threat intelligence, file-based vulnerability, and country of origin detection.
Alongside its product showcase, OPSWAT will use its presence at GITEX to spread awareness of its recent partnership with value-added distributor (VAD) StarLink.
It is a partnership aimed at offering regional customers a well-rounded approach to cybersecurity. As skills shortages and cyber challenges intensify, StarLink will bring Middle East and Africa security professionals OPSWAT’s ground-breaking, end-to-end cybersecurity platform.
To help organisations plug the skills gap, the company will offer complimentary OPSWAT Academy training vouchers.
“By arming professionals with the knowledge and skills to proactively secure critical systems, we take the first concrete steps towards fulfilling our [GITEX] theme’s call to action,” said Irfan Shakeel, VP of Training and Certification Services at OPSWAT.
“These certificates not only represent education but also our commitment to proactive cyber defence and preparedness.”
“We have already cemented a reputation in the region for solving the unique problems associated with securing OT and ICS and today work with leading public and private sector enterprises across the Middle East, in sectors ranging from O&G and FSI to manufacturing and healthcare,” added Selcuk.
“GITEX is our opportunity to gauge, face to face, the pain points and challenges, successes and failures of our regional customers, but also of our partners and potential partners, who play such a pivotal role in our regional growth strategy. As such, we see GITEX as the perfect platform for us to join forces with our industry peers and protect our shared future.”
