Cyber Security Services for UAE Small and Mid-Sized Businesses
Protection sized for SMEs: stop account takeovers, phishing and ransomware — and recover fast if something gets through.
Infirise protects small and mid-sized UAE businesses with layered security — multi-factor authentication, email and phishing protection, endpoint detection, firewall management, backups attackers can’t delete, and staff awareness training — delivered and monitored as a monthly service.
IBM’s 2026 research puts the average cost of a data breach in the Middle East at USD 8 million, and the head of UAE Government cyber security reported around 600,000 attacks a day on the UAE in April 2026.

FAQs
What is the first cyber security step for a small business?
Turn on multi-factor authentication for email and every cloud app, then make sure backups are immutable and tested. Those two steps stop most account takeovers and make ransomware recoverable.
Does the UAE have a data protection law?
Yes. The UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021) applies to most private businesses; DIFC and ADGM have their own data protection laws. At the time of writing, its detailed executive regulations were still awaited. Sensible steps now: know what personal data you hold, limit access, encrypt devices and keep an incident response plan.
Do you monitor security 24/7?
Critical alerts are monitored 24/7 by our team. Every plan includes endpoint and email protection managed by Infirise.
