Help AG, Cribl partner to strengthen data security in UAE and Saudi Arabia

Help AG, the cybersecurity arm of e& enterprise (formerly known as Etisalat Digital) has partnered with Cribl. The partnership will enable customers in the UAE and Saudi Arabia to implement affordable data flow management technologies, which will also increase the effectiveness of safe data interpretation across all of their services.

Through the use of smart routing technologies, the partnership will improve data integrity for threat hunting and compliance. Cribl will provide the most optimised and effective managed security services through its three key products, enabling the quickest identification of any security risks through controlled data flow.

The key component of the partnership will be Cribl Stream, a streaming data processor which reshapes and routes data to manage logs from Help AG’s security information and event management and security orchestration, automation and response solutions more efficiently, a statement said.

Additionally, the firm’s other two core products – Cribl Edge and AppScope – will deploy vendor-agnostic agents to send observability data to any destination and enable the collection of advanced system metrics and data from Help AG client endpoints.

Commenting on the partnership, Stephan Berner, chief executive officer at Help AG, said: “We are very pleased to work together with Cribl in our mission towards making data flow management tools more efficient and observability data more secure, while significantly reducing the cost of managing this data for our valued clients in the region. Cribl’s bespoke big data analytics solutions will grant our customers more visibility and control while maximising value from Help AG’s existing range of services, making observability even more beneficial and profitable for them.”

Hash Choudhuri, general manager EMEA at Cribl, added: “We founded Cribl with the firm belief that collecting, analysing, and storing observability data does not need to be a trade-off for digital enterprises. That is why our agreement with Help AG will add value to their overall offering by making vendor and client data more secure and easy to interpret in the most efficient way. We are delighted by this opportunity to serve a rapidly growing base of customers and enterprises in UAE and Saudi Arabia.”
