Cybersecurity
Built for the GCC
Expert AI security consulting, DevSecOps advisory, and compliance automation for enterprises across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf. Powered by SIAN Validate.
The Challenges You Face
GCC enterprises confront evolving cyber threats while managing compliance, talent gaps, and budget constraints.
Rising Security Costs
Enterprises spend increasing portions of IT budgets on fragmented security tools with diminishing returns.
Talent Shortage
The GCC faces a critical shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals, leaving organizations exposed.
Reactive Posture
Many organizations only discover breaches after the damage is done, lacking proactive threat detection.
Regulatory Complexity
Navigating compliance across NESA, SAMA, NCSC, and CITRA while maintaining security standards.
How SIAN Solves It
A focused, expert-driven approach that combines AI security experience, DevSecOps engineering, and GCC compliance automation.
AI-Native Security Expertise
Security consulting from a practitioner who builds AI governance frameworks at the European Parliament. Not just theory — real experience securing AI systems.
DevSecOps from the Source
CI/CD pipeline security built by someone who integrated security at Binance and built vulnerability remediation at Snyk. Practical, battle-tested approaches.
GCC-Native Compliance
Deep expertise in NCA ECC, NESA IAS, PDPL, ADHICS, and regional frameworks — with data sovereignty guaranteed through UAE-based AWS infrastructure. Not generic advice adapted from Western standards.
Platform-Powered Advisory
SIAN Validate automates compliance tracking, evidence collection, and audit preparation — so our advisory delivers lasting operational value, not just reports.
What Sets SIAN Apart
The GCC has no shortage of cybersecurity firms. Here is why SIAN is different.
AI-Native, Not AI-Adjacent
AI security consulting from a practitioner building AI governance frameworks at the European Parliament.
Most GCC security firms bolt AI onto existing services. No hands-on AI governance experience.
Practitioner-Led, Not Consultant-Led
Built CI/CD pipelines at Binance. Led vulnerability remediation at Snyk. US patent holder in IoT security.
Staffed by generalist consultants who advise on tools they have never operated in production.
Platform-Backed, Not Report-Driven
SIAN Validate automates compliance tracking, evidence collection, and audit prep as a live system.
Deliver static PDF reports and spreadsheets that are outdated the day they are handed over.
GCC-Specialized, Not GCC-Adapted
Deep expertise in NCA ECC, NESA IAS, PDPL, and ADHICS. Data residency on UAE-based AWS with zero offshore processing. Built for Gulf regulatory reality.
Western frameworks loosely adapted for the region. Data often routed through overseas cloud regions. Limited understanding of local regulatory nuance.
We are not trying to be everything to everyone. SIAN focuses on three things — AI security, DevSecOps, and GCC compliance — and does them with depth that generalist firms cannot match.
Data Sovereignty
for the Gulf, by Design
Your data stays in the UAE. It is not processed offshore, not shared with third parties, and not subject to foreign jurisdiction. This is not an add-on — it is how SIAN is architected.
UAE-Hosted Infrastructure
All client data processed and stored on AWS UAE (me-central-1). Physical data residency within the Emirates — verified, not just promised.
Regional Regulatory Alignment
Full compliance with UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 on Personal Data Protection, Saudi PDPL, and Gulf data protection frameworks.
Client-Owned Data
You retain full ownership with complete export, portability, and deletion rights at any time. No lock-in, no exceptions.
Zero Offshore Processing
No data routing through non-GCC cloud regions. No third-party data sharing. No foreign government access vectors.
Data sovereignty is a foundational architectural decision at SIAN — not a feature toggle.
