Ooredoo was named Fortinet’s ‘Best Managed Security Services Partner of the Year in Qatar, which recognises the company’s strength in enabling secure nationwide digital transformation. 
The company was honoured during the Fortinet Partner SYNC annual conference for partners in Doha. The award was received by Ooredoo Qatar chief business officer Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad bin Nasser al-Thani. 
In the face of rising global cyber-threats, Ooredoo has collaborated with Fortinet to provide business customers with industry-leading opex-based cloud solutions across cloud email security, endpoint detection and response, firewall, managed firewall, managed intrusion prevention systems, unified threat management, and web application firewall as a service.
Sheikh Nasser said, “Winning Fortinet’s award for Best Managed Security Services Partner of the Year in Qatar is a major milestone for Ooredoo, and recognition as the largest and best managed security solutions provider in Qatar. With Fortinet, we aim to protect our customers’ information security and help organisations to defend against cyber-threats, reduce risk, and comply with regulation.”
