MEDIA ALERT: NETSCOUT to address ‘new normal’ DDoS intelligence and showcase its Omnis® Cybersecurity platform at GITEX 2021


(MENAFN- Active DMC) NETSCOUT will return to GITEX Technology Week (17–21 October) on stand H1-E28 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. NETSCOUT is a market leader in cybersecurity, service assurance, and business analytics. In addition to presenting its Omnis® Cybersecurity platform, NETSCOUT will focus on the ways in which the pandemic has changed corporate digital infrastructures, and the ‘new normal’ means businesses must bring cybersecurity in line with this expanded threat surface.

Each year, GITEX hosts more than 4,500 exhibitors, 400 plus active investors and 150,000 trade visitors from 140 countries. In line with this year’s theme, ‘Creating a Bolder Digital future Together’, exhibitors are encouraged to showcase the solutions and services that are helping private and public sector organisations to achieve this.

Omnis® Cybersecurity delivers advanced threat detection and response through comprehensive network visibility, highly contextual investigation, and automated mitigation at the network edge. NETSCOUT will provide information at the show as to how this supports the ongoing digital transformation for its customers, helping them to avoid the serious consequences of a future cyberattack.
“Over the past year and a half, many businesses have seen their online operations significantly expand in a short space of time, and digital infrastructures have changed as a result,” said Gaurav Mohan VP Sales, SAARC & Middle East at NETSCOUT. “However, as reliance on the cloud increases, as does the associated cyber risk. To meet this changing landscape and avoid a damaging attack, businesses must invest in the right tools to defend the new threat surface, and this must start and end with visibility. We look forward to meeting with our customers, prospects, partners and peers at Gitex to discuss in realtime these important ‘new normal’ trends.”
In September, NETSCOUT released its bi-annual Threat Intelligence Report, which covers the latest trends and activities in the Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) threat landscape. According to the findings, cybercriminals launched approximately 5.4 million DDoS attacks in the first half of 2021, an 11 per cent increase from the 1H2020 figures. Additionally, NETSCOUT is forecasting 2021 to be another record-setting year, on track to surpass 11 million global DDoS attacks in 2020.
