Ooredoo is seeing strong demand in security solutions for the banking and finance sector on the back of the Information Security Conference for the Financial Sector organised recently by the Qatar Central Bank.
During the event, Ooredoo, as Platinum sponsor, saw strong interest on the Managed Security Services to enhance organisation-wide security.
Solutions include managed security operations centre, managed firewall, malware protection, vulnerability management, cloud web and e-mail security, and DDoS mitigation.
Ooredoo COO Yousuf Abdulla al-Kubaisi said: “Thanks to strong investment in digital technologies, Qatar is ideally-positioned to enhance its standing as a global hub for banking and finance innovation.
“In a world with cyber-threats more prevalent than ever, Ooredoo is Qatar’s only complete managed security services provider, with innovative solutions and global partners that meet the security needs of banking and finance firms.”
Ooredoo’s Managed Security Operations Centre also provides comprehensive security monitoring, incident detection and response across supported systems, and monitoring firewalls, servers, routers, databases, and antivirus systems.
