Trend Micro applauds the launch of the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region, which will aid in the acceleration of innovation and digital transformation in the UAE (UAE). The new AWS Middle East (UAE) Region consists of three Availability Zones (AZs) and joins the existing AWS Region in Bahrain, which was launched in 2019. The new AWS Region provides organizations with even more options for running applications and serving end users from data centers in the UAE, leveraging advanced AWS technologies to drive innovation.
Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, plans to strengthen its partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) by providing best-in-class cybersecurity strategies and practices for the cloud leader’s upcoming data centers in the United Arab Emirates. The move is intended to improve operations and innovation while also protecting the data of communities and organizations across the country and the wider Middle East and North Africa region as they seek to leverage cloud technologies for business growth and economic expansion.
The launch of the new AWS Region will assist organizations in innovating with the agile technologies and services found in the cloud, furthering AWS’ goal of fostering economic growth in the UAE. Customers in the UAE will be able to safely migrate to the cloud using Trend Micro security solutions and AWS services, with the added assurance that they will remain compliant with local and international regulations. Local data storage, transfer, and exchange will be simplified, and end users will experience lower latency, giving organizations a competitive advantage in their cloud journeys.
“Cybersecurity has become an increasingly important component of a country’s stability and growth, as organizations navigate through an accelerated hybrid world,” said Majd Sinan, Country Manager, Trend Micro UAE. “Organizations in the UAE are quickly adapting to the evolving demands of digital transformation, as they continue to migrate their workloads and sensitive data to the cloud. Our industry-leading services and solutions will significantly expand the digital capabilities of companies and help them reach their cloud ambitions in the most secure way possible. We remain committed to supporting the country’s enterprises in their pursuit of a stronger digital economy, with the advantages of our cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions.”
As organizations rely more on cloud operations, the AWS data center will allow them to use cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions to protect cloud migration and workloads. Cloud One, a security-service platform for cloud builders from Trend Micro, offers workload, network, and file storage protection, as well as cloud security and compliance management. Network attacks, vulnerabilities, malware, ransomware, and unauthorized system changes can all be prevented, detected, and responded to by organizations. Cloud One makes cloud migration and workload protection simple and seamless from any location, thanks to a unique and well-structured framework in the UAE.
Customers can get free trials of the Cloud One platform through Trend Micro’s website or AWS using the consumption model on the AWS Marketplace with the automated customer experience. AWS also offers a variety of payment options.
Trend Micro and AWS’ ongoing collaboration builds on initiatives such as the recent launch of AWS Marketplace and AWS Data Exchange in the UAE, which provided regional innovators with Trend Micro solutions to protect their applications, digital environments, and workloads from increasing threats, malware, and other vulnerabilities.
Trend Micro and AWS continue to collaborate closely with both private- and public-sector organizations to improve the country’s digital experiences with the latest insights, innovations, and best practices in cloud security and other fields, in accordance with the UAE’s data security regulations.
AWS Regions are made up of Availability Zones, which place infrastructure in distinct geographic locations. Availability Zones are spaced far enough apart to ensure customer business continuity while remaining close enough to provide low latency for high availability applications that use multiple Availability Zones. Each Availability Zone is self-contained in terms of power, cooling, and physical security, and is linked by redundant, ultra-low latency networks. Customers who prioritize high availability on AWS can design their applications to run in multiple Availability Zones to achieve even greater fault tolerance. With the launch of the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region, local customers with data residency requirements will be able to securely store data in the UAE, while experiencing even lower latency across the country.
