Group-IB has officially announced the opening of its Middle East & Africa Threat Intelligence & Research Center in Dubai.
Group-IB's leadership views the opening of its MEA Threat Intelligence & Research Center as a critical milestone toward achieving the strategic goal of building the first ever decentralized global cybersecurity company with fully operational R&D centers in the key financial hubs.
"The threat of cybercrime is global, with regions being impacted differently," noted Mr. Craig Jones, Director of Cybercrime, INTERPOL. "By understanding first-hand how the threats are evolving and what impact and harm they are causing in the region, I know that together we can mitigate those far-reaching threats and reduce harm more effectively. Encompassing a wide range of expertise, experience and skills, this HQ will play a pivotal role for Group IB's research into the regional threat landscape and on-the-ground support for their customers and partners."
The brand-new Threat Intelligence & Research Center enables the local community to leverage Group-IB's in-depth knowledge of criminal schemes and close collaboration with international law enforcement and cyber police forces worldwide.
The initial hiring focus will be on digital forensics experts, investigators, and cyber threat intelligence and attribution specialists who are expected to join Group-IB's MEA Threat Intelligence & Research Center.
Group-IB's newly inaugurated Threat Intelligence & Research Center will serve the company's existing customer base, which includes over 30 clients in the MEA region within the banking, government, insurance, and energy sectors.
