'Together with our partners, we aim to democratize cybersecurity and make it accessible, scalable, and effective across the region'
Sayantan Dev, President, MEA, Redington, spoke with CPI Media at GISEC 2025 about security predictions for the coming year and how they are leveraging new technologies to support proactive threat detection. What emerging cybersecurity threats or trends do you believe will most significantly impact enterprises in the Middle East and beyond in the coming year? We're seeing a big rise in ransomware, supply chain attacks, and sophisticated phishing campaigns — and they're only getting smarter with the use of AI. According to some reports, ransomware attacks globally jumped over 50% last year, and the Middle East is no exception. Another key trend is the attack surface getting bigger as businesses go hybrid, with people, devices, and data spread across cloud, edge, and on-prem environments. So, the challenge isn't just to protect systems — it's to protect a constantly moving target. You can't prevent everything – so, prevent what you can, detect what you can't prevent, and hunt what you can't detect. How is your company collaborating with governments or enterprises to strengthen cyber resilience across sectors? At Redington, we work closely with both governments and enterprises to strengthen cyber resilience across the region. By leveraging AI, organizations can build more resilient cybersecurity postures, better equipped to withstand and recover from cyberattacks. Through our MSSP practice, DigiGlass, and partnerships with top global vendors, we provide organizations with comprehensive visibility across their infrastructure through a single pane of glass, coupled with high-level MDR capabilities, ensuring compliance with regional data-handling requirements tailored to specific industry verticals. Cyber resilience goes beyond just people, processes, and technology. A critical element is the threat intelligence that powers stronger detection capabilities. We've integrated multiple threat intelligence platforms and are actively collaborating with the UAE Cybersecurity Council to gain comprehensive visibility into regional threat dynamics. This collaboration ensures our solutions are fully compliant with regional standards like DESC, enabling us to provide our customers with maximum protection. What message would you like to share with the global infosec community attending GISEC about your vision for cybersecurity in 2025 and beyond? Our message is clear: cybersecurity is no longer just an IT issue; it's a business enabler. We believe the future of security is all about being proactive, data-driven, and collaborative. At Redington, our focus is on helping businesses of all sizes access cutting-edge solutions, close the skills gap, and build resilience that keeps up with innovation. Together with our partners, we aim to democratize cybersecurity and make it accessible, scalable, and effective across the region. How is Redington MEA leveraging new technologies like AI and machine learning to enhance cybersecurity solutions and support proactive threat detection? We're already integrating AI and machine learning into many of our offerings, particularly through our MXDR solution powered by Microsoft Sentinel and Defender. AI helps us detect threats faster, cut down on false alarms, and even predict attacks before they hit. For example, we've seen a 30–40% improvement in detection speed in some deployments. With these technologies, our teams and partners can spend less time reacting — and more time strengthening defences. With the increasing demand for hybrid and multi-cloud environments, how is Redington MEA helping businesses ensure security and scalability while adopting these complex architectures? Hybrid and multi-cloud setups bring great flexibility but also more complexity and risk. At Redington, we help businesses navigate this with solutions that are cloud-native, scalable, and easy to integrate — whether that's through our AWS Marketplace Practice, Microsoft cloud portfolio, or security practices like DigiGlass. We also work closely with customers through our channel partners to design architectures that balance performance and protection, so they can grow with confidence without compromising security.
