WALLIX Launches UAE-Hosted WALLIX One SaaS Platform to Strengthen Security and Compliance for Middle Eastern Organizations
WALLIX (Euronext: ALLIX), a prominent European cybersecurity provider specializing in identity and access management (IAM) solutions for both digital and industrial sectors, has unveiled its UAE-hosted WALLIX One SaaS platform. This launch marks a significant step in WALLIX’s ongoing commitment to delivering secure, locally-hosted cybersecurity solutions that meet the data sovereignty regulations for organizations in the UAE.
As organizations across the Middle East increasingly face the dual challenges of enhancing cybersecurity and complying with stringent data residency requirements, the UAE-hosted WALLIX One platform offers an ideal solution. This robust SaaS offering focuses on Privileged Access Management (PAM), allowing businesses to efficiently secure and manage privileged accounts while mitigating both insider and external security threats. Crucially, the platform is designed to operate in full alignment with the UAE’s data governance standards.
The WALLIX One SaaS platform provides essential services that protect the digital infrastructure of companies operating in the UAE. It ensures that only authorized individuals or systems—whether employees, external service providers, IT administrators, or even machines like robots and PLC maintainers—can access critical IT or operational technology (OT) resources. This access is granted only after the individual or system’s identity and permissions are thoroughly verified, strengthening security across all digital and physical assets.
Afi Hashim, Middle East Regional Manager at WALLIX, highlighted the significance of this milestone in the company’s regional expansion. He stated, “We are proud to support the security, governance, and compliance needs of organizations in the Middle East by bringing the WALLIX One SaaS platform closer to our customers in the UAE. This solution delivers world-class cybersecurity, ensures data protection, and adheres to local data residency requirements, helping enterprises, government entities, and SMBs secure their critical digital assets.”
The WALLIX One platform offers businesses the opportunity to outsource their identity and access management to a secure, cloud-native solution hosted within the UAE. This allows security managers to maintain full control over access to sensitive company resources, reducing the risks associated with identity theft and unauthorized access. As a result, organizations can focus on enforcing their security policies while relying on WALLIX One to handle the complexities of access management.
In addition to its robust security features, the UAE-hosted WALLIX One solution offers rapid deployment, automatic updates, and scalable functionalities, making it adaptable to the evolving cybersecurity needs of modern enterprises. The platform caters to a wide range of industries, including finance, government, healthcare, and manufacturing, each of which faces unique cybersecurity challenges. The flexibility of the WALLIX One platform allows organizations to scale their security solutions in line with their growth while benefiting from an annual subscription model and predictable pricing.
By integrating the latest innovations in identity and access security, the WALLIX One SaaS platform ensures that organizations can protect their most valuable assets while staying compliant with regional regulations. Additionally, customers have access to a suite of complementary solutions within the WALLIX portfolio, offering a comprehensive and integrated cybersecurity strategy.
