Middle East’s 598 Million Smart Devices and BYOD Transforming Businesses, But Fuelling Complex Security Threats
Like the rest of MENA Qatar’s businesses face unprecedented levels of cyber-attacks, as global security vulnerabilities and threats against systems, applications, and personal networks have reached their highest-ever recorded level. In the rapidly evolving world of security threats, total global threat alerts are increasing 14 percent year-on-year.
In response to today’s advanced malicious and cyber-attacks that are too complex and too sophisticated to be addressed by traditional technologies, Cisco's before/during/after approach to security avoids the problems associated with fragmented security solutions, such as lack of visibility and inconsistent enforcement.
Today, Cisco offers an integrated approach to security and a wide portfolio of solutions to combat the cyber security threats.
Cisco Data Centre Innovations – celebrating five years of success
Five years ago, Cisco launched Unified Computing System (UCS) which today has achieved its success by solving the real business challenges of integrating compute, storage and networking within IT infrastructure. The ability for organisations of all sizes to achieve tangible benefits by reducing total cost of ownership, simplifying management and increasing data centre efficiency are behind the fast adoption of UCS. Cisco continues to help businesses stay a step ahead in the race to innovate. It has a track record of spotting and delivering the next IT revolution, driving business agility and ensuring its customers keep their competitive edge sharp.

MENA Well Placed to Lead Technological Innovation by Leveraging Smart Devices, Interconnected World of ‘Internet of Everything’ and Faster Mobile Networks
Cisco predicts that the Middle East and Africa (MEA) will post the world’s-fastest mobile data traffic growth rate from 2013-2018. Across MEA, mobile data traffic growth is being driven by the world’s-fastest uptake of Internet Protocol version 6 (Ipv6) -capable smartphones and tablets, with a CAGR of 35 percent, rising from 133 million in 2013 to almost 598 million in 2018.
The growth of mobile data traffic is indicative of mobility becoming a critical characteristic of almost every network experience, and the value consumers and businesses place on it. It is also representative of the immense opportunities ahead for service providers who sit at the center of the Internet of Everything.
Cisco offers a range of highly scalable and flexible mobility platform that enable system wide services for mission-critical wireless networking in medium-sized to large enterprises and campus environments.
