New UAE Office to Serve as Platform to Serve Customers and Provide Deeper Insights into Cyber Attacks
FireEye, recently showcased two new solutions designed to equip organizations to scale their defense strategies and previewed some of the findings of its latest research into cyber threats affecting customers in the Middle East. The opening of a new office in the United Arab Emirates, where FireEye’s team of technical experts constantly monitors and evaluates the evolving regional threat landscape, signals the company’s growing commitment to the region as well as the region’s emergence as a nexus for organized cyber-attack.
The new FireEye as a Service offering is an on-demand security management offering that allows organizations to apply FireEye’s technology, intelligence and expertise to find and stop cyber attacks. FireEye Advanced Threat Intelligence, provides access to threat data and analytical tools that help identify attacks and provide context about the tactics and motives of specific threat actors.
Ashar Aziz, FireEye founder, commented: “While the Middle East region may not possess the arsenal of zero-day exploits available in Russia, or the brute-force numbers of China, it plays host instead to many hackers that rely on cyber tactics that emphasize novelty, creativity, and deception.”
The Adaptive Defense security model is an approach for defending against advanced threat actors that scales up or down based on the unique needs of each security organization at any point in time. With this new approach, organizations can significantly reduce therisks of cyber attacks with on-demand access to FireEye’s expert team of analysts, forensics specialists and malware reverse engineers.
