Cyber Security Company Cybereason Launches Middle East Operations

Cybereason provides complete visibility and actionable threat detection so security analysts can stop attacks before material damage happens. Cybereason’s Dubai-based operations will be overseen by Tarek Kuzbari, an industry sales veteran with experience at some of the world’s leading security companies.

“The digital transformation era is expanding the attack surface and the potential damage for companies is higher than ever. Our future proof technology protects the world’s largest brands from evolving threats. Together with our local partners, we will deliver the best cyber defense platform into the Middle East market which will help defenders find and eliminate sophisticated breaches faster than any other platform in the world,” said Lior Div, CEO and co-founder, Cybereason.

Cybereason recently gained wide recognition as the top-ranked current offering in the recently published “The Forrester Wave™: Endpoint Detection & Response, Q1 2020.” In addition, Cybereason received a strong rating in NSS Labs Inc.’s recent Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) Test (nsslabs.com) with a perfect score in the Resistance to Evasion category and near perfect scores in several additional categories.

By automating many tasks that previously relied upon manual labor, Cybereason’s cloud-based EPP platform delivers an industry-leading ratio of one analyst to 150,000 endpoints, compared with the industry benchmark of one analyst to 20,000 endpoints.

Tarek Kuzbari previously held sales leadership positions at Kaspersky Lab, Group-IB, SABA Software and Bitdefender. In the months ahead, he will concentrate on partner recruitment and enablement, as well as increasing brand recognition across the region.

“I’m looking forward to extending Cybereason’s reach to new enterprises and organizations facing a constant fatigue of alerts and incidents that require 24 x 7 attention and focus. The adversary is winning and as a company Cybereason is poised to turn the tables in favor of the defenders. In the Middle East, where breach costs and exfiltration rates are some of the highest in the world, Cybereason stands ready to shore up defenses and build safer environments for everyone,” said Kuzbari.

Cybereason (cybereason.com), creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, gives the advantage back to the defender through a completely new approach to cybersecurity. Cybereason offers endpoint prevention, detection and response and active monitoring. The solution delivers multi-layered endpoint prevention by leveraging signature and signatureless techniques to prevent known and unknown threats in conjunction with behavioral and deception techniques to prevent ransomware and fileless attacks.
