Virsec and Meta Byte to offer ICS and SCADA protection

Virsec, a leader in cybersecurity innovation and a game-changer in cyber defense strategy today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Dubai based next-generation technology solution provider, Meta Byte Technologies.

With this partnership, service providers and enterprises in the Middle East region will achieve complete protection for IT systems as well as Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Virsec’s patented technology and its unique approach protects against risks posed by targeted cyberattacks across IT and OT systems.

“We are delighted to partner with Meta Byte Technologies to support the delivery of our groundbreaking cyber security platform to enterprises and service providers across the Middle East,” said Bobby Gupta, Managing Director of International Business at Virsec. “Combining our unique technology with Meta Byte’s expertise will help secure businesses in the region and deliver the next level of operational excellence in cyber risk management.”

The Virsec Security Platform stops fileless attacks and in-memory exploits that escape detection by conventional security. These advanced application attacks have been considered indefensible and have put many enterprises in jeopardy. Virsec stands up to these threats, protecting applications from the inside whether their systems are patched or unpatched.

“Enterprises are always in pursuit of solutions that can better protect their systems against cyber criminals. With the rise in the number of targeted attacks, enterprises have paid a heavy price either implementing expensive protection solutions without guaranteed results or recovering after attacks. With Virsec technology that protects against known and unknown exploits, clients can deterministically protect their IT and OT systems and realise benefits in speed, efficiency and error reduction, leading to faster returns for their cyber risk management investments,” said Salil Dighe, CEO of Meta Byte Technologies.
