Riyadh – Sharikat Mubasher: Abdulrahman Alkenani, CEO of the Saudi Cybersecurity Company (CYBER), said the firm is preparing for a major expansion of its protection capabilities, with plans to raise the value of assets it secures from SAR 5 billion today to SAR 100 billion over the next five years. CYBER specializes in cyber investigations, data leak response, mobile threat defense, and anti-drone technologies.
Speaking to Asharq Business, Alkenani said the company intends to invest between SAR 50 million and SAR 100 million in its operations through 2030 as it scales cybersecurity infrastructure to meet rising demand across the Kingdom. The expansion strategy includes deeper collaboration with leading global partners operating in the region.
He noted that Saudi Arabia’s cybersecurity landscape is facing increasingly complex threats, underscoring the role CYBER plays in helping organizations detect and contain attacks in real time, often within 15 minutes. The company also provides specialized high-technology crime and investigative consultancy tailored to legal, law enforcement, and government entities.
Alkenani added that CYBER’s footprint extends beyond the Kingdom to the wider MENA region, with plans to expand into Africa in the near future. The company currently serves 300 clients in Saudi Arabia and aims to attract 100 clients from African markets next year. Since its founding in 2014, CYBER has maintained an annual growth rate of 10–20% and intends to sustain these levels moving forward.
