Richmany said: "We are proud to be hosting our latest Connections event in Riyadh, particularly at a key time for the KSA, as it is witnessing huge growth across many sectors and heavily investing in information and communications technology, positioning it as a leader in the region's digital economic transformation."

The number of ransomware attacks worldwide increased by 151% in the first half of 2021, highlighting the need of enterprises implementing both a robust and future-proof data management strategy.

"Data security is becoming increasingly important, so we look forward to connecting with many of our industry partners at our Connections event in Riyadh and continue offering our support to businesses, helping them take control of their data in a safe, productive and sustainable way," he stated.

According to experts, Saudi Arabia is fast-becoming a centre of digital process and innovation, with the implementation of Saudi Vision 2030 and the government’s modernisation efforts driving the creation of sustainable operations and accelerating its digital transformation.

During digital transformation projects, keeping the applications and data workloads up and running and recoverable is a top concern, said the experts.

Hence, this latest event will offer expert advice and insights to help drive data protection, data security, and data compliance programs, while also providing the opportunity to network with industry peers, they added.
