«Our main aim of hosting this Summit was to exchange information and experiences in the fields of cyber defence and IT security, with the ultimate goal of aiding companies in KSA combat security threats. We are pleased with the success of the event and hope the attendees now have a clear plan for implementing the right IT solution to combat security threats», said Alexander Zarovsky, International Business Chief, InfoWatch.

We hope to increase awareness of the need for such solutions, particularly in the KSA market», added Alexander.
In addition to the above, InfoWatch also presented the cloud security concept and architecture for 2020 which closely links cloud technology to business benefits, and views such solutions as being an integral part of corporate business processes.
