A10 Networks hosts SSL
security event in KSA
/////////////////////////////
With data breaches
causing more damage
than ever before, A10
Networks has hosted
a security workshop in
KSA with a spotlight on
SSL decryption.
A
10 Networks has co-hosted a
security workshop with the theme
‘Embrace data chaos by inspecting
your SSL’ in collaboration with technology
alliance partner Splunk and channel partner
Saudi Business Machines (SBM).
A10 Networks has the most
comprehensive decryption
solution, A10 Thunder SSLi (SSL
Insight) that decrypts traffic
across all ports, enabling third-
party security devices to analyse
all enterprise traffic without
compromising performance.
The event took place at the Ritz Carlton hotel
in Riyadh, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Abdulmajeed Alobailan, Country Manager
for Saudi Arabia at A10 Networks, said:
“Today data breaches are causing more
damage than ever. Two-thirds of all Internet
traffic is encrypted. Almost half of all
cyberattacks use encryption to evade security,
leaving organisations vulnerable to the SSL
blind spot.
“Traditional security defences are ineffective
for SSL. This combined with an ever-
increasing amount of cybercrime means the
need for companies to deploy comprehensive
protection is greater than ever.”
At the event, executives from A10 Networks,
Splunk and SBM teams educated attendees
on how regional organisations can learn
to embrace their data and use it to better
protect enterprise networks in order to
maintain business as usual.

at A10 Networks
A big spotlight at the event was turned on
SSL decryption, which is no longer a ‘nice
to have,’ but a ‘must have’ as it eliminates
blind spots introduced by SSL encryption and
thus prevents cyber-crime.
Ayman Alissa, Cyber Security
Director, SBM, said: “SBM is proud
to partner with A10 Networks
and Splunk, joining forces on this
key event to present our services
and how, as a leading tech firm in
Saudi Arabia, we can add value to
our customers.
“This strategic partnership is a
fantastic opportunity for our clients who, by
using our services alongside Splunk and A10
Networks’ key products, could benefit hugely
and embrace data chaos to drive their
company forward.” n
