In line with the government’s vision of delivering efficient and effective services to the public, Misr for Government Technological Services (E-Serve) has announced a strategic collaboration with global cybersecurity solution provider, Kaspersky Lab. The MoU, signed between E-serve and Kaspersky Lab at the Cairo ICT 2018 is aimed at improving government, organization, and individual preparedness for an evolving threat landscape, and elevating the cybersecurity awareness in the country as new technologies present advanced security challenges: more targeted, complex, and harder to predict. 

With this partnership, E-Serve and Kaspersky Lab will exchange experience of best practices in the field of cybersecurity to create a cyber-immune community protected from various cyberattacks and threats. Both companies will be working closely on key security programs, including technology and information exchange, training and awareness initiatives, and enhance coordination for future studies on joint ventures on cybersecurity.

Commenting on the strategic agreement, Maxim Frolov, Vice President of Global Sales at Kaspersky Lab, said, “We are excited to join forces with E-Serve to help them in their journey to realize the government’s vision in providing more efficient and smart services to the citizens of Egypt.
