- Evanssion and BigID Join Forces to Boost Data Security and Privacy in the Middle East
Strategic Partnership Aims to Drive Innovation and Accelerate Data Privacy Adoption in the Middle East
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, May 01, 2023: Evanssion, a leading cybersecurity and cloud-native VAD, today, announced that it has signed a distribution partnership with BigID, the leading platform for data security, compliance, privacy, and governance. This collaboration aims to tackle the intricate challenges faced by enterprises in ensuring data visibility and control across their organizations, while facilitating the rapid adoption of data privacy measures in the Middle East region.
Businesses are currently facing a pressing need to bolster their data security measures and conform to stringent national privacy regulations. According to a recent Gartner report titled “Innovation Insight for Data Security Posture Management,” this trend is set to gain significant momentum. The report states that “by 2025, 60% of organizations will rely on DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) tools to automate security and compliance activities, up from just 15% in 2020.”
Given this backdrop, the partnership between Evanssion and BigID assumes greater significance. With BigID’s cutting-edge data intelligence platform and Evanssion’s expertise in cybersecurity and cloud-native solutions, the partnership is well-positioned to help enterprises in the Middle East region tackle complex data-related challenges and enhance their overall security posture.
“We’re excited to partner with Evanssion and help customers meet their privacy, protection and data security needs,” said Nick Maxwell, VP of EMEA/APAC at BigID. “Our data discovery and intelligence platform is helping numerous organisations across the globe project against all data, combined with Evanssion’s expertise in cybersecurity, this partnership will provide clients with a comprehensive solution to protect all their data, in-line with the new regulations and frameworks across the region.”
“Evanssion is committed to addressing the most relevant challenges that our customers and partners across the region continue to face. We believe that the lack of data visibility and control, as well as the need to adhere to new privacy regulations, are at the top of the list,” said Ahmed Al Qadri, CEO at Evanssion. “Partnering with BigID will enable us to deliver even more value to our customers and further strengthen our position in the market.”
