IRONNET-GCC COUNTRY AGREEMENT TO DEFEND CRITICAL NATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 10 (Bernama) -- IronNet Inc (IronNet), an innovative leader Transforming Cybersecurity Through Collective Defense℠, has announced the execution of a multi-year contract with a Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) country —which is remaining anonymous to help protect its operational security—to enable it to better defend its most important governmental, financial, and infrastructure enterprises, country-wide, against cyber attacks.

The GCC country will use IronNet’s leading AI-based Network Detection and Response (NDR) solution, as well as the IronNet Collective Defense℠ platform, to facilitate real-time, collaborative cyber defence spanning key ministries and enterprises, as well as between public and private organisations in an effort to more quickly detect vulnerabilities across critical industry and government sectors.

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) backbone of the IronNet Collective Defense platform will enable the country to deploy the solution quickly across hundreds of enterprises and maintain a dynamic cyber radar view of threats on enterprise networks comprehensively and at network speed.

The agreement represents IronNet’s largest AWS cybersecurity deployment in this region to date, according to a statement.

“We are proud to be recognised by this visionary GCC country for our Collective Defense platform, which enables anonymised, real-time collaboration and a more proactive approach to combating cyber adversaries,” said General (Ret.) Keith Alexander, Co-CEO and Founder of IronNet.

“Enabling public-private partnerships is a critical part of helping this country strengthen their cybersecurity posture in the face of escalating cyber threats.”

The IronNet Collective Defense platform is the first automated cyber solution that delivers threat knowledge and intelligence across industries at machine speed. By leveraging advanced AI-driven NDR capabilities, it can detect and prioritise anomalous activity inside individual enterprise network environments.

Government entities and private organisations across the United States and worldwide have already adopted IronNet’s Collective Defense platform to build dedicated communities to protect national, state, and local critical infrastructure.
