CPX and Huawei launch their first joint cloud security offering

CPX Holding, a leading provider of digital-first cybersecurity solutions and services, and Huawei are bringing their first cloud solution to the UAE market.

A ground-breaking security data lake has been launched at the Gulf Information Security Expo & Conference (Gisec) 2023, as part of the ongoing strategic alliance announced a few months ago between CPX and Huawei. The data lake is aimed at protecting valuable critical infrastructure in the UAE from cybersecurity challenges.

Powered by advanced analytics and machine learning from Huawei and CPX’s industry-specific expertise, the new offering enables customers to gain unparalleled visibility into their operations and rapidly respond to mission-critical cyber incidents.

With the expanding threat landscape, protecting operational technology (OT) environments from cybersecurity challenges has become crucial for ensuring the safety and reliability of operations. Cyber incidents on OT systems can cause grave damage, resulting in production downtime, equipment damage and even physical harm to persons. IT leaders often have limited visibility over their organisational data, making security more difficult to control. To counter this, the security data lake service provides a reliable and scalable solution for collecting, storing and analysing data from OT environments.

The service is provided from a secure, government-approved cloud offering in the UAE and is designed to protect the most vital sectors including oil and gas, transportation, healthcare, finance and banking, amongst others. It has undergone rigorous testing to ensure the highest levels of security and regulatory compliance for UAE organisations.
