Press Review: Britain In The Region
Mustard to Participate in 'Britain in the Region' Dubai, UAE
27-29 November 2008
Mustard are pleased to announce participation in Britain in the Region which is a unique event to understand business opportunities in the high-growth markets across the Middle-East and North Africa (MENA)
UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) is the Government’s business development organisation that assists UK companies succeed in an increasingly global economy and this visit to Dubai will strengthen trade and investment ties across MENA
'UKTI have put together a first class programme to help UK companies assess business potential across MENA and assist in making key contacts so essential to ensuring that goods and services can be made available to satisfy market demand' said Dave Marsh, Managing Director of Mustard
Strong focus on the world financial markets in the past few months has put these markets under the spotlight – from a security and regulatory perspective – and there is a pent-up demand for quality security services to highlight vulnerabilities and provide guidance on establishing processes and procedures to satisfy regulatory compliance
Dave Marsh continues 'We have seen an explosion of security related requirements over the past few months and systemic failure of the financial markets. We expect tougher regulations to be forged in the coming months and in the meantime, organised crime is growing dramatically. Organisations need to ensure they have the correct checks and balances in place to protect themselves from the bad guys and that is exactly what Mustard can provide. We are looking forward to 'Britain in the Region' and to assisting local companies to meet and exceed security and regulatory requirements'
IT architectures are typically highly complex and have grown over many years to the point where it becomes relatively easy for unscrupulous manipulation of application and data to occur. 'Complexity usually means there are security issues. Our experience shows that many organisations don’t implement best practice. We assist senior management to mitigate risk with practical solutions to protect their brand, reputation, employees and customers' commented Dave Marsh
