MoonSols, a global leader in the provision of information technology security services, has opened an office in Dubai to serve the Middle East and Africa region.

Matt Suiche, founder and general manager EMEA, will run the Dubai operations, to meet the increasing demand for security services due to high and escalating numbers of corporate attacks in the region, said a statement.

"Middle East and Africa are prime regional examples of where MoonSols would work effectively. We noticed a growth in our user database for our security tools, testifying growing needs in the region and we are committed to helping with high-end services to assess and protect against those new threats," said Suiche.

“Risks related to communicating data are impacting new and existing infrastructures such as mobile applications or industrial control systems. I look forward to helping customers and partners in the region take advantage of MoonSols' innovative technology, defense hacking capabilities, training and advisory services,” he said.

Ryan MacArthur has joined MoonSols as the principal security consultant and specialises in research in the field and reverse engineering, said Suiche.

The company is planning to organise the first gathering of the Security Visionaries Club in Dubai in May, for security professionals from the regions and influencers from the international scene to discuss and share their experiences. - TradeArabia News Service
