Developed in 2024 by Beyon Cyber Labs in Bahrain, Intel X is now actively deployed across regional enterprises, allowing IntelX enabled clients to leverage the latest AI and automation technologies in security operations, and move away from the slow and outdated methods that struggle to keep up with fast evolving cyber threats, at a fraction of the typical cost. IntelX delivers this effect through real time threat intelligence detection and containment across an enterprise's security controls in seconds as opposed to weeks, significantly minimizing risk and exposure to known threats. This one-of-a-kind tool was recognized with the Innovation award, further solidifying Beyon Cyber's role as a disruptor in security operations space.
Holger Schulze, CEO of Cybersecurity Insiders, the largest global community of cybersecurity professionals and the organization behind the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards said, 'Beyon Cyber stood out for its momentum, product innovation, and executive leadership in one of the world's most competitive regions.'
The Cybersecurity CEO of the Year award honours Dr. Sh. Khalid bin Daij Al Khalifa and the wider executive team for their leadership in steering Beyon Cyber through a phase of rapid growth, regional market penetration, and innovative in-house developments.
