Arcshields is a cybersecurity consultancy and audit firm that provides specialized risk management and defense services to organizations in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. Built on a foundation of nearly two decades of industry experience, the company operates under a methodology designed to assess, detect, and shield digital environments. Their technical team, composed of certified experts in information systems auditing and security management, focuses on bridging the gap between high-level compliance requirements and technical security implementations.
The firm’s service portfolio centers on comprehensive Information Systems (IS) audits and risk assessments that align with international standards such as ISO 27001, GDPR, and NIST, as well as localized regulatory frameworks like SAMA and NCA. This compliance-driven approach is complemented by deep technical testing, including internal and external penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. These services are designed to identify dormant threats and technical weaknesses within an infrastructure before they can be exploited by malicious actors.
Beyond point-in-time assessments, Arcshields provides ongoing managed security services to maintain a resilient defense posture. This includes 24/7 security operation center (SOC) functions such as SIEM management, threat intelligence gathering, and active monitoring of critical security defenses like firewalls, EDR, and WAF solutions. By combining these operational services with immersive security awareness training, the firm addresses both the technical and human elements of cybersecurity to ensure long-term business continuity for its clients.
