Dubai, United Arab Emirates, February 1, 2022 —BARQ Systems, a leading regional IT services provider serving business and government clients across Middle East, and Africa (MEA), announced their transition to an IT Service Provider, offering a full-fledged Managed Services Portfolio. As part of this transition, BARQ Systems is launching a new Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS), marking the beginning of its journey to offer a wider set of subscription based IT Services by 2025. Aiming to highlight their presence in the Saudi market and support Vision 2030, BARQ Systems will participate in LEAP 2022, a prime technology platform, to launch BARQ Systems’ strategy in the managed services market.

The Saudi based company with a unique spread across the MEA region (with offices in Riyadh, Jeddah, Cairo, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi), will launch a SOCaaS platform that offers customers a complete Cyber Security Threat monitoring and response solution on a 24/7 basis.
