Odyssey Cybersecurity has expanded its footprint in Saudi Arabia, marking a major step in supporting the Kingdom’s growing cybersecurity ecosystem and national Vision 2030 objectives. The company established two state – of – the – art data centers in Riyadh and Dammam, along with a local Security Operations Centre (SOC) powered by Saudi-based experts.
This strategic move enhances the delivery of advanced threat detection and response capabilities through Odyssey’s ClearSkies™ Centric AI Threat Detection, Investigation, and Response (TDIR) Platform. Operating fully within the Kingdom, the platform reinforces data sovereignty and ensures real -time protection against emerging cyber threats.
Saudi Arabia’s cybersecurity market — estimated to surpass SAR 13 billion in 2025 — is witnessing strong growth, driven by national digital transformation initiatives and regulatory compliance under the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) and the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA). Odyssey’s local presence aligns perfectly with these priorities, empowering organizations to strengthen resilience while maintaining regulatory alignment.
According to Mohamed Mounir, General Manager of Odyssey Cybersecurity in Saudi Arabia, the company’s mission is to help both public and private entities enhance detection, investigation, and response capabilities. “By operating locally and investing in people and infrastructure, we aim to build a safer, self – sufficient cybersecurity landscape,” he stated.
The company’s ongoing initiatives include partnerships with managed security providers, the development of local cybersecurity talent through training and certification, and continuous R&D investment to advance the ClearSkies™ platform. Odyssey’s future plans also focus on strengthening collaboration, expanding managed services, and contributing to national threat intelligence sharing efforts.
This expansion underscores Saudi Arabia’s leadership in cybersecurity readiness, maintaining its Tier 1 global ranking and positioning the Kingdom as a digital security powerhouse.
