In this rising age of cyber threats coupled with tough government regulation, it has become imperative for organizations doing business in the UAE that they pay close attention to information security and compliance. One of the major challenges of organizations doing business in this security-sensitive market is having to comply with one of the most important security frameworks for cyber security in this market – it is referred to as NESA Compliance. This has now been brought under UAE Information Assurance Standards (IAS).
NESA Compliance Consulting Services assume such important significance by providing structured inputs and technical assistance to achieve full compliance with the national cybersecurity requirements.
Understanding National Electronic Security Authority (NESA) Compliance
The National Electronic Security Authority (NESA), helps improve the UAE cyber defense posture by specifying security controls that shall be complied with for information systems, networks, or data. These security controls of the UAE IAS framework include entities that handle sensitive government data, operate critical infrastructure, or provide essential services.
NESA Compliance ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets. NESA Compliance has become a significant concern for organizations and a source of potential threats and penalties for non-compliance. NESA Compliance also raises concerns related to data breaches and confidentiality.
Why Organizations Need NESA Compliance Services in the UAE
The implementation and requirements related to NESA and UAE IAS could be complex and technical in nature and hence pose challenges related to their interpretation, documentation, and implementation of controls in a way that is audit-ready. This leads to the requirement for NESA Compliance Consulting Services.
Professional consultants help companies overcome this checkbox mentality of security, integrating it into their operations and ensuring they comply with the level of regulation demanded of them. This way, compliance itself becomes an enabler for the business, not an inhibitor.
