Ducab launches region's first HV fiber optic cable
As the first of its kind in the GCC, this pioneering product will deliver smarter, greener, and more resilient power solutions to support growing global energy demand and diversification.
The launch also marks a strategic step in Ducab's global expansion, particularly in highly regulated markets like the European Union (EU), where its advanced design and compliance with international sustainability standards provide a competitive edge.
The HV Fiber Optic Cable brings a new level of intelligence to power networks by combining high-voltage transmission with advanced fiber optic technology.
It continuously monitors temperature, strain, and performance, allowing for early detection of potential issues before they lead to power disruptions. This makes power grids more stable and efficient, helping to meet the energy needs of fast-growing regions like the GCC while minimizing downtime.
The cable emphasises Ducab's position as a trusted partner to governments and industries, supporting various sectors including renewables, mining, and industrial operations, and is vital to mission-critical industries such as oil & gas, offshore operations, and defense with tailored solutions.
In addition to its advanced features, the HV Fiber Optic Cable is built with sustainability and efficiency in mind.
Manufactured using 98% recycled materials and produced through eco-friendly processes that minimize waste and reduce carbon impact, the cable aligns with the increasing global focus on green energy solutions.
Its compliance with strict European environmental standards makes it an attractive option for EU utility providers and infrastructure projects, where demand for sustainable and energy-efficient solutions continues to grow.
The launch of this cable at Middle East Energy is part of Ducab's broader commitment to sustainability and supports clean energy initiatives, in line with the UAE's Net Zero by 2050 strategic initiative and the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050.
Charles Mellagui, CEO of Ducab Cable Business (DCB), said: "The introduction of our High Voltage Fiber Optic cable is a game-changer for the power transmission industry in the GCC and globally. By integrating high-voltage performance with real-time monitoring, we are enabling utility operators to manage power networks with greater efficiency, safety, and precision."
"This product addresses today's challenges while setting the stage for the future of energy infrastructure, reinforcing Ducab's commitment to leading the global power transmission industry. This is about powering essential global infrastructure now and well into the future," he added. -TradeArabia News Service

Quiz of the week: August 15, 2025
Vanuatu: $130,000 Why on earth pick Vanuatu? Easy. The South Pacific country has no income tax, wealth tax, capital gains or inheritance tax. And in 2015, when it was hit by Cyclone Pam, it signed an agreement with the EU that gave it some serious passport power. Cost: A minimum investment of $130,000 for a family of up to four, plus $25,000 in fees. Criteria: Applicants must have a minimum net worth of $250,000. The process take six to eight weeks, after which the investor must travel to Vanuatu or Hong Kong to take the oath of allegiance. Citizenship and passport are normally provided on the same day. Benefits: No tax, no restrictions on dual citizenship, no requirement to visit or reside to retain a passport. Visa-free access to 129 countries.

Opinion: Germany's zeal for Israeli genocide revives its dangerous exceptionalism
Germany is open about its uninhibited support for Israel's war of extermination and genocide in Palestine, and wants to make sure the entire world sees it. Recognition for its Zionist zeal enables Germany to rehabilitate its exceptionalism, or Sonderweg, with catastrophic consequences for Palestinians and international law. Germany is not uniquely evil among liberal democracies in offering Israel unconditional support in killing starving Palestinians. Chancellor Friedrich Merz is no more morally bereft than British Prime Minister Keir Starmer or French President Emmanuel Macron. But Germany exalts Zionist radical evil to assert its uniqueness. Germany remains as hungry for national identity as it has ever been, and nothing can stand in its way - least of all Palestinians, who appear in the German consciousness only when establishment forces fail to erase their existence. Germany's pursuit of greatness has unleashed immense violence and destruction, from genocidal conquests in Africa to two world wars and the extermination of European Jews. Its defeat and division after World War Two, and integration into Nato and the EU, seemed to put the German threat to rest. Yet Germany has bounced back with a vengeance, thanks to economic prowess and global reordering. While it has championed the rule of law and democracy within the EU like no other, it has not hesitated to set them aside when they conflict with its core interests - whether to impose its economic model and austerity on all member states, pursue energy policy at the expense of European partners (Nord Stream 2), or break fiscal rules it had imposed on the rest.

OPSWAT Report Reveals 127% Rise In Malware
OPSWAT has released its first-ever Threat Landscape Report , revealing key insights from over 890,000 sandbox scans in the last 12 months. This report offers a unique lens into the evolving nature of cyberthreats. The findings are clear: traditional detection methods are being outpaced, with a 127% rise in malware complexity and a staggering 1 in 14 files—initially deemed 'safe' by legacy systems—proven to be malicious. This report is a call to action for industries relying on outdated defenses and the importance of multi-layered solutions. Key Findings: 127% Increase in Malware Complexity Behavioral telemetry revealed a 127% rise in multi-stage malware complexity over the past year. OPSWAT's sandbox uncovered layered threats designed to evade analysis, including obfuscated loaders such as NetReactor and evasive behaviors missed by traditional tools. These results show that modern malware intends to confuse, not flood, which is why OPSWAT's pipeline is purpose-built to unpack that complexity. Proactive Threat Detection OPSWAT analysis reclassified 7.3% of files that were silent across open-source intelligence (OSINT) feeds as malicious, on average 24 hours earlier than public data sources. These were confirmed executions, not speculative flags, highlighting how adaptive analysis can close dangerous gaps left by static and reputation-based systems. Campaign-Level Threat Correlation With 890,000+ sandbox scans, OPSWAT connects the dots across threats. It identifies shared TTPs, reused C2 infrastructure, and behavioral patterns across campaigns. This provides defenders with context-rich, actionable intelligence instead of noisy indicators. 99.97% Detection Accuracy OPSWAT's behavioral and machine learning pipeline delivers results. Aided by a newly enhanced PE emulator, the platform identified sophisticated threats such as: Clipboard hijacking via ClickFix Steganography-wrapped loaders C2 channels embedded in Google services .NET Bitmap malware loaders delivering Snake Keylogger payloads 'Our strength lies in precision, behavioral depth, and early visibility into emerging attacks,' said Jan Miller, Chief Technology Officer of Threat Analysis at OPSWAT. 'That's what sets OPSWAT apart in delivering high-fidelity, context-aware threat intelligence.' Why It Matters As critical infrastructure, government systems, and enterprise networks face growing targeting from increasingly modular and evasive malware, the findings of this report spotlight the evolving adversary playbook and the need for integrated, multilayered solutions. Cybersecurity leaders must now prioritize adaptability, shared intelligence, reassessing technology, and fast behavioral detection pipelines to protect systems from known threats, but also to keep pace with a rapidly evolving threat landscape and whatever is on the horizon. part of the OPSWAT MetaDefender Platform, powers advanced threat detection and file analysis across critical environments.
