Vetted specialists across defence, offence, cloud, identity, OT and governance. Controls mapped to NCA ECC-2:2024, SAMA CSF, NIS2 and DORA.
Remote Pro Ai’s Cybersecurity practice lets you hire cybersecurity specialists from a vetted bench: security operations, offensive testing, cloud and identity security, OT protection and governance. Engineers map every control to NCA ECC-2:2024, SAMA CSF, NESA / UAE IA, NIS2, DORA or SOC 2 from day one, and any specialist starts within 4 working days.
Framework-fluent
Every control traced to NCA ECC, SAMA CSF, ISO/IEC 27001, NIS2, DORA or SOC 2.
Certified bench
CISSP, CISM, CCSP, OSCP, GICSP and CREST-certified professionals on the bench.
Round-the-clock coverage
Follow-the-sun SOC and incident-response capacity across our Cairo and Al-Khobar teams.
This panel pulls from the same source as the availability page. A specialist appears as available once vetted, unassigned and able to begin inside 4 working days.
Certification counts reflect credentials verified with the issuing body.
GRC specialists run the gap analysis, write the policy set and build an evidence library. Typical scope: audit-ready for NCA ECC-2:2024, ISO/IEC 27001 or NIS2 in 12 weeks.
A 24/7 SOC on your Microsoft Sentinel or Splunk, with MITRE ATT&CK-mapped detections and defined escalation SLAs.
Zero-trust landing zones, CSPM and CNAPP tooling, policy-as-code guardrails and hardened key management.
Web, API, mobile, cloud and Active Directory testing scoped to NCA, SAMA and PCI DSS cycles, plus red-team exercises.
SSO, MFA, privileged access, machine identities and Nafath or UAE Pass integration, provisioned through SCIM.
IEC 62443 zoning, passive OT monitoring and incident playbooks aligned with NCA OTCC.
SOC lead, 5 analysts, detection engineer, threat hunter
Red team lead, 2 pen testers, AppSec engineer

Sovereign cloud landing zone and SOC · A government entity, Riyadh
Secure landing zone on in-Kingdom cloud with zero-trust access, SIEM and SOAR, and a 24/7 SOC staffed from Al-Khobar and Cairo, aligned to NCA ECC-2:2024.
OT / SCADA security monitoring · An energy company, Eastern Province
Passive OT monitoring across plant networks with IEC 62443 zoning, anomaly detection and integration into the corporate SOC.
Security operations and red-team programme · A telecom operator, UAE
Managed detection across cloud and network estates, quarterly red-team exercises and a DevSecOps pipeline for digital channels.
Mostafa Abdel-Aziz · Head of Cybersecurity
The Head of Cybersecurity signs off every security placement and owns the practice’s assessment labs, its certification checks and the framework mappings squads use in delivery. During an active incident, the practice lead backs the Squad Lead with expertise while the contractual escalation path runs through the Governance Officer.

Every certification is checked with the issuing body before a profile goes live. The 5 gates then test behaviour under pressure.
Verified certifications plus a documented history of incidents handled, tests run or audits passed.
SOC candidates rebuild an intrusion timeline in KQL or SPL; testers breach a lab AD.
GRC candidates turn an NCA ECC-2:2024 gap into a remediation and evidence plan.
A 5-minute incident brief for an executive, then a written summary fit for a regulator.
Enhanced background checks; profiles eligible for client security clearance where required.
Cloud security candidates also repair a misconfigured landing zone against a CIS benchmark. Read the full method on how we vet.

Yes. The 24/7 SOC Squad provides a SOC lead, 5 L2/L3 analysts, a detection engineer and a threat hunter on a follow-the-sun rota. They work inside your SIEM, such as Microsoft Sentinel or Splunk, with MITRE ATT&CK-mapped detections. On the Case P-02 programme, a 24/7 SOC was live in 6 weeks.
Tests are scoped and reported to match the periodic testing obligations in NCA, SAMA and PCI DSS requirements: exploit-proven findings, risk ratings, remediation guidance and retest evidence. Whether a report is accepted remains your regulator’s or assessor’s decision, so we agree the scope and format with your compliance team before testing starts.
Through your controls, not ours. Specialists use your VDI, privileged-access tooling and logging, so every session is recorded under your policies. Access follows least privilege and is removed on the day an engagement ends. The data-residency pattern and access rules are written into the Statement of Work.
Yes. The NCA ECC Compliance Squad runs a gap assessment across the ECC-2:2024 domains, writes or updates policies, tracks remediation and builds the evidence library your auditor will request. A typical engagement reaches audit-ready evidence in 12 weeks, depending on how many controls need technical remediation rather than documentation.
Yes. OT / ICS Security Engineers assess and segment plant networks against IEC 62443 and the Purdue model, deploy passive monitoring with tools such as Nozomi, Claroty or Dragos, and align controls with NCA OTCC. On the Case E-01 programme they reached full plant network visibility with zero production interruptions.
The bench holds CISSP, CISM, CCSP, OSCP, OSEP, CREST CRT, GICSP, GCIH and GCFA credentials, among others. We verify every certification with the issuing body before a profile is shown to clients. Certifications support the decision, but candidates must still pass the practical gates, such as rebuilding an intrusion timeline live.
Yes. Most security work runs remotely through your access controls, but onsite and hybrid placements are available at client sites in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, supported by our Al-Khobar office. Onsite seats start within 4 working days like remote ones; where the client requires a security clearance, the 4 days count from the date it is granted.
