Dr Mohamed Al-Kuwaiti, Head of the UAE Cybersecurity Council, <\/strong>re-emphasising the need for a collective effort to strengthen the global industry and shape its future policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-collective-effort-is-fundamental-to-defeat-cyber-criminals\"><strong>\u2018A collective effort is fundamental to defeat cyber criminals\u2019<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Addressing the audience in his opening speech, he stated: \u201cCyberattacks do not distinguish between governments, entities and people, they simply attack. That can cost a significant amount of money, or even impact national security. This is why we need to partner as we cannot do this ourselves and why partnership is the main pillar of resiliency.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">H.E. Dr Mohamed Al-Kuwaiti was also part of an insightful panel discussion, joining top officials from a diverse range of businesses in the industry to explore cutting-edge research, public-private partnerships and talent development to tackle evolving cyber threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The panel included <strong>Pei Ling Lee, Head of Cyber Strategy and Capabilities Development of Interpol. <\/strong>Responsible for driving Interpol\u2019s cybercrime-fighting mandate and strategic objectives and priorities under its Global Cybercrime Programme, she believes it\u2019s essential that more meaningful dialogue takes place to positively impact the industry around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She said: \u201cOf course, training is a very important part but, at Interpol, we also realise there is a need to promote better coordination between law enforcement and entities that are dealing with cybersecurity issues. Therefore, there is more importance on collaboration between international organisations so people can share their expertise with each other, which can be implemented at national levels.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"GISEC Global 1_ssict_1200_800\" class=\"wp-image-55688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800-1080x720.webp 1080w, https:\/\/saudishopper.com.sa\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/GISEC-Global-1_ssict_1200_800.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u2018Waiting is no longer an option \u2013 we need to take the quantum leap now\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Afra Ibrahim Bin Fares, Senior Policy &amp; Regulations Affairs Executive at Dubai Electronic Security Center (DESC), <\/strong>also delivered an insightful presentation that explored the steps being taken by the government entity in preparing for the quantum leap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cybersecurity researcher, who specialises in data security and zero-trust architecture and contributes to Dubai\u2019s cyber resilience, highlighted DESC\u2019s Quantum Cybersecurity Readiness Guidelines, a valuable document to help guide technology providers and entities under DESC\u2019s law. It also provides a strategic framework for assessing and preparing quantum-safe security measures, while supporting the development of a transition roadmap to ensure resilience against emerging quantum computing threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As technology continues to rapidly advance, she warned that governments and technology providers cannot afford to wait any longer if they want to avoid situations that could have far-reaching consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She said: \u201cWe are on the verge of a new technology revolution \u2013 the quantum revolution that will dramatically change our work. Dubai government is positioning itself as one of the pioneers in the Middle East for quantum guidelines and I want to emphasise that quantum is not on the horizon and it is closer than we think. Waiting is no longer an option and it\u2019s time to act and prepare and take on the quantum leap now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking beyond the Middle East, <strong>Jin Young Oh, Vice President of Korea Internet &amp; Security Agency (KISA), <\/strong>explained how the government entity is driving South Korea\u2019s digital trust and internet safety across Asia\u2019s most connected nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He highlighted Generative AI, Supply Chain, Cloud Security, AI Cloud Security, Zero-Trust, Cyber Resilience, Proactive Security, Mobility Security, Spam and Phishing and Quantum as KISA\u2019s top 10 cybersecurity issues that they are working on, while efforts are being made in both product development and field testing of prototypes to integrate AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a>Hosted by the UAE Cyber Security Council, and supported by <\/a><strong>DESC, the UAE Ministry of Interior and Dubai Police<\/strong>, GISEC Global 2025 will come to a close on Thursday.
