The Zscaler cloud has over 150 Global data centres and processes over 250 Billion secured transactions per day – that’s 20x the amount of Google searches per day!

As digital transformation accelerates in the Middle East, companies & government organisations are increasingly adopting cloud services and shifting from traditional network security to cloud-based security. Zscaler has over 100 customers across the region, including large local Banks, Oil & Gas and Government organisations. To further support digital transformation across the Middle East, the company has invested aggressively in building out its locally based infrastructure (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait) and people, including multiple Sales teams (see foto) as well as Engineering & Support functions.

Lawrence Morrison, VP of Middle East business, states: “Our main objective over the next 24 months is to continue driving value for customers by helping them to simplify their security infrastructure by leveraging our security cloud to drive down costs through consolidation of point-products, increase user experience (i.e. Microsoft 365) by connecting directly through the fastest path and improving security against ransomware & data loss through Zero Trust. We now have over 25 people dedicated to our Middle East business, with myself and most of the team based out of Dubai.”
