The company will share its cybersecurity expertise as the UAE advances digital transformation and infrastructure modernisation
ParamountAssure, a UAE-headquartered cybersecurity company, will highlight operational technology (OT) security at CYSEC UAE 2026 on 22 October 2026 at Rosewood Abu Dhabi on Al Maryah Island.
The company will focus on securing the physical operations behind essential services as the UAE advances digital transformation and the technology and productivity priorities of UAE Centennial 2071.
Earlier in 2026, the UAE Cybersecurity Council reported 90,000 to 200,000 daily breach attempts against UAE infrastructure. Against this wider threat backdrop, Paramount will highlight risks to OT, the hardware and software that monitor or control physical equipment and processes across energy, utilities, manufacturing and transport.
Disruption
While information technology (IT) security commonly protects information and business applications, OT security also addresses potential physical consequences. Disruption could interrupt services, damage equipment, or create safety risks.
“As the UAE advances its digital development, protecting the systems behind essential services must remain central to building the dependable infrastructure that supports national progress,” stated Premchand Kurup, CEO, ParamountAssure.
“Effective OT security starts with understanding how the process operates and what happens if a system is interrupted or behaves unexpectedly. Security teams need to work with the people running,” added Divya Raj, Business Unit Head – Critical Infrastructure Security (OT & IoT), ParamountAssure.
