Advancing National Cyber Security Cooperation Including Threat Intelligence Sharing, Incident Response, and Specialized Workforce Training

Group-IB, a specialist in cyber crime investigation and prevention, has partnered with the UAE Cyber Security Council. This collaboration encompasses threat intelligence sharing, incident response coordination, and specialized workforce training, aiming to transition from reactive security systems to proactive defense strategies.

Group-IB announced on the 8th that its headquarters has established a strategic partnership with the UAE Cyber Security Council.

The UAE Cyber Security Council is a government body overseeing the UAE's national cyber security vision.

Both parties plan to jointly promote △threat intelligence sharing △incident response coordination △technical training and workshops for cyber security specialists.

The core of this collaboration is the expansion of threat information sharing scope.

Both parties will implement measures to share various threat information including cyber risks, threat actors, malicious infrastructure, malware, attack techniques, and indicators of compromise (IoC).

The approach is to jointly build a system that enables proactive response before actual damage occurs by utilizing attacker behavior patterns and attack infrastructure information.

Dr. Mohamed Al Kuwaiti, UAE Government Cyber Security Lead (H.E.Dr. Mohamed Al Kuwaiti), stated, "Predicting risks before threats materialize is the core of the UAE national cyber security vision. Through collaboration with Group-IB, we will be able to rapidly share threat information and strengthen substantive response capabilities."

Dmitry Volkov, CEO of Group-IB, said, "We must utilize attacker-centric intelligence and AI to predict what will happen and provide defenders with more time before the impact of attacks materializes."

Strengthening cyber security specialist capabilities is also a key collaboration area.

Both parties plan to establish technical workshops, training materials, and joint working groups to foster UAE cyber security talent development and enhance practical response capabilities.

Additionally, the establishment of a joint Innovation Center of Excellence within the UAE is under review.

Specific operational scope and activity details will be finalized through future consultations.

Ashraf Koheil, Vice President of META·ANZ Sales at Group-IB, stated, "Our goal is to contribute to strengthening cyber resilience of the UAE digital economy through knowledge exchange, capacity building, and substantive cooperation."

Group-IB, headquartered in Singapore since 2003, provides solutions including threat intelligence, fraud prevention, and managed extended detection and response (XDR) based on its Unified Risk Platform to various industries including government, financial, and healthcare sectors worldwide.
