Skillz Middle East and Data Security
Data security is a critical area for every organization. Skillz ME secures 90 %+ of enterprise structured databases with a robust database scanning to catalogue the environment and identify weaknesses.
Several key drivers are fueling this solution area:
- Increasing digitization and data generation across industries, leading to a heightened need for robust database protection.
- Stricter regulations like AAA rating and GDPR Standards, and PCI DSS, which require businesses to implement comprehensive data security measures.
- The adoption of cloud and hybrid environments necessitates more sophisticated security solutions that can handle diverse infrastructures.
- Skillz Middle East performs deep analysis to assess and control user privileges, roles, and objects needed to enforce Zero Trust practices and monitor and respond to database activity with a comprehensive solution to identify suspicious activity.


Skillz Middle East and Digital Solutions
Moving with the ever-changing digital era, Skillz ME focuses more on creating meaningful websites and apps through which your target audience will acknowledge your business.
As the application development market is constantly changing, Skillz ME focuses on helping clients to adapt technology and take the lead.
Thinking out of the box means integration more than redeveloping something new. Skillz ME is a preferred partner when it comes to digital signature, integration. Acrobat Sign had a great momentum not only since the COVID-19 pandemic, with over +30 clients in the Middle East who have integrated Acrobat Sign in 2020 as their core Digital Signature solution in their business applications to secure document workflows for internal processes and external processes.
Taking more critical approaches across business Apps we learned that security is highly missed out when it comes to actual unstructured data protection, then infrastructure security.
