cybersecurity<\/a> training, technical exercises, resilience preparedness, research and development, and strategic stakeholder engagement. Moreover, it supports initiatives focused on professional development, cyber awareness, knowledge transfer and practical capability development. These aim to help organisations prepare for, respond to and recover from cyber incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAreas of cooperation include joint workshops, training programmes, technical working sessions and exercises. Both sides will also exchange expertise and best practices in information security and resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His Excellency Dr Mohamed Al Kuwaiti, Head of Cybersecurity for the UAE Government, commented on the move. “The UAE remains committed to building a secure, resilient and future-ready digital ecosystem,” he said. “Our partnership with Veeam reflects the importance of trusted public-private collaboration in strengthening national cyber resilience, advancing cyber recovery capabilities and supporting the secure adoption of AI and digital technologies. Together, we will contribute to practical skills development, stronger organisational readiness and a more resilient digital future for the UAE.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amin Hanafieh, Regional Director, Middle East & CIS at Veeam, also shared his view. “The UAE continues to set the standard for cybersecurity leadership and innovation across the region,” he said. “We are honoured to establish a partnership with the UAE Cybersecurity Council to help strengthen cyber resilience, advance cybersecurity skills development and support organisations in building secure, recoverable and resilient digital environments. Together, we can help organisations strengthen their recovery readiness and establish the trusted foundation needed to embrace emerging technologies and AI with confidence.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mena Migally, Regional Vice President, for EMEA East at Veeam, added further context. “Across the Middle East, organisations are accelerating digital transformation, cloud adoption and AI initiatives at unprecedented speed,” she said. “As AI adoption increases, cyber resilience and trusted data become foundational requirements for sustainable innovation. This partnership reflects our long-term commitment to supporting the UAE’s cybersecurity ambitions while helping organisations build the governance, resilience and recovery capabilities required to innovate with confidence.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The partnership aligns with the Council’s Centre of Excellence framework. The framework aims to strengthen national cyber capabilities. It does so through capacity building, emerging technology development, governance initiatives and strategic public and private partnerships. It also focuses on building sustainable cybersecurity capabilities through training, certifications, cyber simulations, readiness exercises and innovation programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the Centre of Excellence, Veeam will contribute several programmes. These include training and certification programmes, executive briefings, technical workshops and recovery exercises. They will support the Council’s national capability development priorities. Specific areas include role based learning pathways, simulation environments and practitioner enablement programmes. There are also initiatives to advance trusted, governed data practices across public and private sector organisations. These draw on Veeam’s expertise in cyber recovery, data resilience and AI ready security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, the partnership reflects Veeam’s long term commitment to the UAE. This includes continued investment in local talent, expertise and regional delivery capabilities. Through this collaboration model, both organisations will support national cybersecurity priorities. They will also deliver measurable outcomes that strengthen cyber resilience across the UAE and the wider region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
