Arabia government has implemented several regulations such as Saudi Arabia
Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) to regulate the collection, use, and
disclosure of personal data. The adoption of managed security services is
enabling third party customers to comply with the PDPL when processing personal
data of customers. This includes obtaining valid consent

Bring Your Own
Device (BYOD) can drive the market of managed security services (MSS). The
practice of allowing employees to use their personal devices, such as
smartphones, tablets, and laptops, for work purposes is referred to as
"bring your own device" (BYOD). To safeguard confidential corporate
data and networks, robust security measures are required as the use of bring
your own device (BYOD) grows in organizations. The adoption of BYOD introduces
additional security challenges, as personal devices may not have the same level
of security controls as corporate devices. This can increase the risk of data
breaches, malware infections, and other security incidents. Managed security
services (MSS) are outsourced security solutions provided by specialized
companies to manage and monitor an organization's security infrastructure.
In
addition, these services enable enterprises to implement security policies,
enforce access controls, conduct security assessments, and provide ongoing
monitoring and management of BYOD devices to ensure that they are secure and
compliant with the organization's security policies. Furthermore, MSS have the
ability to include services such as threat detection and response, security
monitoring, vulnerability management, and incident response, among others. These
services help organizations to protect their BYOD devices and comply with
cybersecurity regulations. To overcome the threat, enterprises may require
specialized MSS to implement security controls and monitors specifically
tailored for BYOD environments. Therefore, MSS providers have the expertise and
tools to implement and manage security measures to protect an organization's IT
assets and data from potential cyber threats. Thus, implementation of bring
