UAE Cybersecurity Council Issues Warning on Smart Device Vulnerabilities
The UAE Cybersecurity Council has issued a critical warning that resonates with every resident: 70% of smart home devices are vulnerable to cyberattacks. This isn't just a consumer issue. It's a clear signal of the wider threat landscape in a world where security weaknesses can be found everywhere. For businesses, this public warning is a wake-up call. It's time to move beyond simple awareness and adopt a strategic, professional security posture.
Cyber Security: Your Business Defence
The scale of cyber threats in the UAE is staggering. The Cyber Security Council reports blocking over 200,000 attacks daily, many of them powered by AI. This isn't a problem that can be solved with basic security measures.
Our Cyber Security services are your business's comprehensive shield. We provide:
- Vulnerability assessments: Identifying and closing security gaps in your digital assets.
- Threat intelligence: Staying ahead of emerging cyber threats and attack vectors.
- Managed security services: Proactively monitoring and defending your networks and systems.
Risk Management
The vulnerability of smart devices often stems from simple mistakes like using default settings. This principle of weak practices creating big risks applies even more to businesses.

Internal Fraud Prevention
The human element is still the weakest link. That's why the "Cyber Pulse" awareness campaign is so important.
Our Internal Fraud Prevention services help you build a human firewall. We help you with:
- Employee training: Educating your team to spot and resist social engineering tactics and phishing attempts.
- Establishing strong controls: Implementing procedures that prevent internal vulnerabilities from being exploited.
- Building a security culture: Turning your employees from a potential vulnerability into a key part of your company’s defence strategy.
