CyberKnight Highlights the Importance of Zero Trust Security at Gartner SRM and GISEC 2023

Published

on

CyberKnight has announced its participation at the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit in Dubai on February 27-28, as well as one of the largest exhibitors at GISEC 2023 on March 14-16. CyberKnight will highlight to regional IT security leaders, the importance of a holistic approach to Zero Trust when addressing today’s cybersecurity challenges. At both events, CyberKnight will also showcase market-leading international cybersecurity vendors.

“Our Theme for this year’s participation at Gartner SRM and GISEC is ‘Think Zero Trust: Adapting Defenses against Sophisticated Cybercriminals’. As we know, attackers continuously expand their capabilities and take advantage of an ever-growing number of attack vectors. In 2022, we saw that cybercriminals targeted critical infrastructure in the region, including information technology, financial services, healthcare, and energy sectors globally, with headline-grabbing incidents. The core cybercrime methods have not changed, but their sophistication of them has increased. Hence, it is more crucial than ever to focus on adapting defenses against modern cybercrime and the time for a Zero Trust Security approach is now,” commented Avinash Advani, the Founder, and CEO at CyberKnight.

“Sponsoring both the shows – Gartner SRM and GISEC, among the most reputable IT security events in the Middle East covering key topics that matter most to security practitioners, allows us to create more awareness around Zero Trust Security so that we can contribute to regional cybersecurity capacity-building with best-of-breed cybersecurity products and services. As a trusted advisor to enterprise and government organizations across the region, being present at these key platforms continues to be essential for us as well as our participating vendors. We look forward to seeing our strategic customers and partners at the shows,” added Vivek Gupta, Co-Founder, and COO at CyberKnight.

Matrix to Exhibit NDAA Compliant Surveillance at ESX North America 2025

Published

on

Matrix is scheduled to participate in the Electronic Security Expo (ESX) North America 2025 on June 16 and 17, at the Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta. ESX brings together security integrators, consultants, and technology leaders from North America to explore industry innovations.

As demand for intelligent, scalable, and regulation-aligned security infrastructure grows in the U.S., video surveillance and access control remain central. The U.S. surveillance market is projected to exceed $37.27 billion by 2030 (Grand View Research), and with rising cyber threats, there’s a shift towards solutions that protect both physical assets and their underlying data.

Matrix will present its NDAA-compliant video surveillance solutions, which are required in the North American market for government and critical infrastructure projects. At the event, Matrix will showcase its cyber-secure video surveillance portfolio. This includes network cameras compliant with ISO/IEC 27402 standards and a Video Management System (VMS) designed to guard against the OWASP Top 10 Desktop Security Risks. This setup aims to protect surveillance footage from tampering, hacking, and unauthorized access, which is important as video is increasingly used as legal evidence and for compliance.

Additionally, Matrix will present its VAPT-compliant access control solutions, designed to secure physical access points, digital credentials, software interfaces, and third-party integrations. With over 40% of security breaches involving stolen or compromised credentials (IBM, 2024), securing all access points is important. Matrix access control systems track, verify, and protect interactions.

“North America is a strategic market for us, and we’re here to grow with the people who know it best—local partners,” said a Matrix spokesperson. “Our goal is simple: deliver cybersecured, NDAA compliant solutions that help integrators and consultants win customer’s trust, and build long-term relationships.”
