ARUBA EXPERT ON
CREATING A GDPR
COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORK
WITH SECURITY TECHNOLOGY
AS ONE OF THE PILLARS
How can organisations in the Middle East region create
a framework to ensure cyberattacks are dealt with in a
GDPR-aware manner, to minimise fines, reduce breach-
related costs, while at the same time protect personally
identifiable information? Rabih Itani, Regional
Business Development Manager, Security, Middle East
and Turkey at Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise
company, tells us a GDPR security strategy should look
at four technology areas.
C Meanwhile, GDPR was launched back in
May 2018 to create a new benchmark for
personal data protection, and its influence
was felt far and wide.
It is a fact that cybersecurity attacks are on the
rise all over the world, and the Arab world is no
exception. There are even some recent reports
stating that the Arab countries are among the
ones facing the highest number of attacks. It is now the template for privacy laws
throughout the world. So how can
organisations in the Middle East create
a framework to ensure attacks are dealt
with in a GDPR-aware manner, minimising
fines, reducing breach-related costs, and
ybercriminals today are attempting
to penetrate your organisation’s
network to try to get hold of critical
assets with most looking for the valuable
personal identifiable information (PII).
