LogRhythm, the company powering today’s security operations centers (SOCs), and Mideast Communication Systems (MCS), the leading value-added distributor in the Middle East and Africa, have partnered to deliver next-generation security information and event management (NextGen SIEM) solutions to organizations across the Middle East and East Africa. The partnership enables public and private organizations to deploy LogRhythm’s NextGen SIEM and benefit from automation, advanced intelligence engine, machine learning and range of cybersecurity technologies and techniques.

LogRhythm operates across six continents and enables organizations to successfully reduce risk by rapidly detecting, responding to and neutralizing cyberthreats. The LogRhythm platform combines user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA), network traffic and behavior analytics (NTBA) and security automation, orchestration and response (SOAR) in a single end-to-end solution. It serves 4,000 customers globally and has been given the Customer Choice title from the Gartner Peer Insights Customers Choice for SIEM report.

“As digital transformation accelerates across the Middle East and Africa, organizations need a secure foundation for adopting new applications and services. Together with MCS, we are enabling them to deploy innovative cybersecurity solutions with a simple and efficient model. Our partnership is focused on helping more organizations manage their risk, reduce complexity and benefit from a ‘security first’ approach. This is an opportunity to provide cybersecurity in some of the most rapidly digitizing markets in the world.”
