Navigating ADHICS Compliance: How MIT Consultants is Shaping Cybersecurity Standards in UAE Healthcare

Dubai, UAE,, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As UAE healthcare and financial institutions race to meet stringent ADHICS regulations, MIT Consultants emerges as a trusted advisor, guiding enterprises toward robust compliance through tailored cybersecurity solutions. The cybersecurity landscape in the UAE has dramatically evolved, with healthcare and financial institutions facing heightened regulatory demands under the Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security Standards (ADHICS). Recent high-profile data breaches and cyber threats have highlighted the urgent need for organizations to comply fully with these standards, protecting sensitive patient and financial information. As organizations scramble to adapt, MIT Consultants, a Dubai-based cybersecurity advisory and solutions reseller, is becoming a pivotal player in assisting healthcare and financial institutions in navigating the complexities of ADHICS compliance. Expert Advisors, Tailored Solutions MIT Consultants differentiates itself through its vendor-neutral advisory approach, ensuring that the solutions recommended are best suited to each organization's specific operational and compliance needs. Rather than advocating for a particular product, the firm's cybersecurity experts thoroughly analyze an institution's existing infrastructure, identify vulnerabilities, and align their recommendations precisely with ADHICS requirements. "Our role goes beyond mere reselling of cybersecurity solutions," says Mohamed Moussous, CEO of MIT Consultants. "We see ourselves as strategic partners. Our clients benefit from our ability to pinpoint precisely what's needed to achieve compliance efficiently and securely." Addressing Critical Cybersecurity Needs Healthcare and financial institutions face particular vulnerabilities—ransomware, phishing attacks, insider threats—all of which ADHICS compliance seeks to mitigate through rigorous cybersecurity measures. MIT Consultants addresses these threats by implementing robust Privileged Access Management (PAM), real-time threat detection systems, patch management processes, and secure information management strategies tailored specifically to ADHICS regulations. Real-World Successes MIT Consultants has successfully guided numerous institutions through ADHICS compliance by identifying gaps, providing detailed roadmaps, and recommending integrated solutions from global cybersecurity vendors. Their expertise ensures minimal operational disruption while achieving full regulatory adherence, ultimately safeguarding institutions from both cyber threats and potential regulatory penalties. "With our deep understanding of the UAE cybersecurity landscape, we provide not just technical solutions but peace of mind," adds Moussous. "Our clients trust us because we have their best interests at heart, which is compliance, security, and operational efficiency." A Strategic Advantage In an environment where regulatory compliance and cybersecurity intersect critically, MIT Consultants offers UAE healthcare and financial institutions a significant strategic advantage. By entrusting compliance initiatives to specialized cybersecurity advisors, organizations can stay ahead of threats, ensure adherence to regulations, and maintain a secure operational environment.

Runaway domestics, sheep-herders caught working

KUWAIT CITY, Aug 5: The Public Authority for Manpower (PAM), in coordination with the Residence Affairs Investigations Department, carried out a joint field inspection targeting a project affiliated with the Public Authority for Housing Welfare (PAHW) in Mutlaa Residential City. The authority explained that the inspection, conducted under the directives of First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef, focused on the completion and maintenance of services, infrastructure, and public buildings in the Dahiya Center, implemented by a general trading and contracting company. The campaign resulted in the arrest of 36 workers found in violation of the Residency and Labor Law, including 15 domestic workers and 21 sheep farmers. PAM confirmed that all violators were referred to the Residence Affairs Investigations Department for necessary legal action. It affirmed the continuation of inspection campaigns in coordination with relevant authorities to ensure a legal, safe, and organized work environment at all sites and projects. PAM renewed its call to employers to fully comply with applicable laws and regulations and to refrain from employing illegal workers, stressing that inspection teams will continue their efforts to detect violations and take necessary action with firmness.

Dangerous waters: What to know about the flesh-eating bacteria and brain-eating amoebas

For most people, swimming in a lake or river is the best way to cool off on a hot summer's day. But there are more than frogs and fish in those waters – microscopic pathogens that can cause serious illness, and in extreme cases, even death, are lurking below the surface. Two waterborne pathogens have been increasing in freshwater lakes and brackish waters across the U.S. in recent years, due to the warming trends of climate change, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The culprits are the rare "flesh-eating" bacteria (scientific name Vibrio vulnificus) and the "brain-eating" amoeba (scientific name Naegleria fowleri). In early July, a boy died from the brain-eating amoeba, after swimming in a South Carolina lake. Four other people have died after contracting the rare flesh-eating bacteria in Florida this year, state health officials confirmed. How do these pathogens enter the body? The brain-eating amoeba and flesh-eating-bacteria are known to thrive in warm water environments. The brain-eating amoebas are more commonly found in warm freshwater lakes and rivers, while the flesh-eating bacteria are primarily found in warm brackish water, which is a mix of fresh and salt water. How both pathogens can enter the body during water activities: Why is it called a brain-eating amoeba? The amoeba is often referred to as brain-eating because it can cause an deadly infection called Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis (PAM) that destroys brain tissue. The brain-eating amoeba usually kills fewer than 10 Americans each year. In particular, only four survivors have been identified out of 167 instances that have been recorded in the U.S. between 1962 and 2024, according to the CDC. Why is it called a flesh-eating bacteria? The bacteria is often referred to as fleshing-eating because it can cause necrotizing fasciitis, which destroys muscle tissue, skin tissue and skin. It can enter through a cut, but it cannot penetrate unharmed skin. The bacteria can also enter your body when you eat uncooked or undercooked shellfish. The flesh-eating bacteria is rare, but it can be life-threatening. Without treatment, death can occur in just a few days. An average of 150 to 200 cases are reported each year, with most of them in Gulf Coast states, according to the CDC. Take these precautions during water activities Swimmers, particularly those in southern states and warm coastal waters, should expect a minimal risk of contracting a pathogen in warm freshwater lakes, rivers, brackish waters and hot springs. How to lower your risks: Medical experts always recommend keeping a close eye on children when they play or swim in the water. While it's uncommon for adults to swallow water while swimming, children are far more prone to do so, according to VCU Health. Researchers are unsure why boys appear to be most at risk of being infected. It may be because they are more prone to play in the sediment at the bottom of lakes or jump and dive into the water, according to the CDC. Progression of infection: Know the symptoms Because of the life-threatening results, it is important to be know of symptoms and significance of seeking immediate medical assistance following any exposure. Here is a comparison of symptoms of the flesh-eating bacteria vs. the brain-eating amoeba: CONTRIBUTING Julie Garisto, T. Sudore and C.A.
