According to The Data Dilemma: Cloud Adoption and Risk Report, on average, organizations store 61 percent of their sensitive data in the cloud, a 48 percent increase from 2019. Most have also experienced at least one cybersecurity breach (90 percent), threat (89 percent) and/or theft of data (80 percent), demonstrating that on-premises data loss prevention (DLP) is not enough. Gartner predicts that by 2026, 85 percent of organizations will seek to procure CASB, SWG or ZTNA offerings from a converged solution.
To support the Middle East’s enterprise and government organizations with security gaps across a hybrid environment and protect sensitive data—in motion, in use, and at rest, CyberKnight has become a value-added-distributor for Skyhigh Security, the world’s leading Security Service Edge Platform (SSE).
