Partnership Overview Under the terms of this agreement, Sariya Information Technology will serve as an official regional distributor for Keystrike's cybersecurity solutions, bringing cutting-edge security technologies to organisations across the Middle East. This partnership combines Sariya's deep regional market expertise with Keystrike's innovative security platforms to address the growing cybersecurity needs of enterprises in the region. Market Impact The Middle East cybersecurity market continues to experience rapid growth as organisations increasingly prioritize digital security infrastructure. This distribution partnership positions both companies to capitalise on expanding market opportunities while providing local organisations with access to world-class security solutions and support. 'We are excited to partner with Keystrike to bring their niche yet simple cybersecurity solutions to our regional market', said Nirmal Menon, Business Unit Manager at Sariya Information Technology. 'This agreement aligns with our commitment to providing our channel partners with the most effective security technologies available, backed by local expertise and support'. 'The Keystrike solutions fit very well with other cyber security solutions on the market. It is important for us to team up with trusted partners like Sariya-IT where they bundle our solutions with their existing products, providing a total solution for the clients. We are very excited about our cooperation on the mission to make our clients safe from cyber threats', said Leifur Saemundsson, Keystrike's general manager for the Middle East and Africa region. Technology Overview Modern breaches typically start by attacking the weakest link in every system, the people. Once successful they can impersonate the legitimate user once he opens a session to the servers and then the APTs can do whatever the user can do, bypassing MFAs, PAMs etc! Keystrike Solution: Making sure the commands received by the servers originate from the legitimate user by keystroke attestation, successfully blocking lateral movement, identifying and blocking APTs on their attempts to move laterally, securing the server and reporting to your SIEM tool that this workstation is compromised! Through this partnership, system integrators throughout the Middle East can help their clients to identify the APT compromised workstations on their first attempt to move laterally! Strategic Benefits The distribution agreement enables both organisations to leverage their respective strengths, with Sariya Information Technology's established regional presence complementing Keystrike's technology innovation capabilities. This collaboration is expected to accelerate market penetration and enhance customer satisfaction across the Middle East cybersecurity landscape. 'Partnering with Sariya Information Technology represents a significant step in expanding our Middle East presence', commented Saemundsson. 'Their proven track record in the region and commitment to customer success makes them an ideal partner for delivering our solutions to this important market'. Image Credit: Stock Image
