From KSS I consult strategic level security management comprised of highly sophisticated technologies that come from diverse areas, ranging from industrial security to financial security, to law enforcement, to information technology implementations and digital criminology. I have spent my entire career dealing with a wide spectrum of information technology across the IT paradigm, be it software or hardware, security, or development. My capability and years of exposure to different technologies have started helping in keeping KSS at the forefront of the competition of what it does, continuously searching for innovative methods to improve the abilities of KSS to better protect its clients’ interests. KSS has a special focus in cyber security, serving multi-national companies that have facilities and other business interests in Kuwait, supporting their global, regional, and local security managers in carrying out their strategic security plans and goals.
