Riyadh – Asdaf News:
Odyssey Cybersecurity, together with its ClearSkies™ Centric AI Threat Detection, Investigation and Response (TDIR) Platform, will participate at Black Hat MEA to showcase The Strategic Evolution of Cybersecurity and the Rise of the Autonomous SOC, presenting AI-powered cybersecurity solutions advancing Saudi Arabia’s national cybersecurity vision at one of the region’s key cybersecurity events.
During the three-day event, Odyssey and ClearSkies™ will showcase their products and services designed to support public and private organizations in detecting, investigating and responding to cyber threats more efficiently – supporting their transition from enhanced visibility to more autonomous, AI-driven defense and strengthening their resilience as threats continue to become more sophisticated.
They will also preview the next evolution of ClearSkies™, the integration of new AI features and DNS Shield. This new cloud-native DNS security solution delivers full visibility across all DNS activity, users and devices, and real-time blocking of malicious and AI-generated domains that easily evade traditional defenses like firewalls, EDR, and legacy SIEMs.
Mohamed Mounir, General Manager for Saudi Arabia, said, “Participating in Black Hat MEA allows us to engage with regional stakeholders on the challenges and solutions around AI-driven cybersecurity threats. With Saudi Arabia’s ongoing digital transformation under Vision 2030, organizations require locally compliant and effective cybersecurity tools. Through ClearSkies™ Centric AI TDIR platform and Odyssey’s AI-Powered Managed Services, we aim to support organizations in improving detection and response capabilities while maintaining operational continuity even when under attack.”
Market outlook and challenges:
Saudi Arabia is undergoing a rapid digital transformation, supported by Vision 2030 and national initiatives to advance technological and cybersecurity capabilities. As this transformation accelerates, the cyber risk landscape expands, exposing organizations to increasingly sophisticated threats such as AI-enhanced phishing, advanced social engineering, deepfakes, and adaptive malware campaigns.
While many organizations in the Kingdom have strengthened their governance and compliance frameworks, there are still gaps in continuous visibility, detection speed, and access to skilled cybersecurity professionals: organizations still function in a reactive security model rather than a predictive one. As IT environments become more hybrid and complex, the capability to monitor the whole attack surface, detect and respond to threats in real time is becoming essential to maintaining operational resilience.
Odyssey’s ClearSkies™ platform combines continuous monitoring, AI-driven analytics, and automation with human oversight. The platform leverages the proprietary Centric AI Fabric based on private, offline Large Language Models (LLMs), ensuring data privacy and compliance with local regulations. It is designed to continuously learn from each organization’s environment and interaction to improve detection accuracy, reduce false positives and orchestrate faster, automated responses to stop even the most sophisticated threat.
As Odyssey continues to expand its presence in Saudi Arabia, the company is exploring collaborations with regional MSSPs, system integrators and technology partners. These partnerships aim to increase the access to AI-powered cybersecurity capabilities and support organizations in strengthening their resilience against emerging cyber threats.
