Licences are one component: deployment and security configuration, migration, training and support are separate, paid components, quoted for your requirement.
Can security and backup data stay in Saudi Arabia?
Some of it can. According to Google, Google Cloud runs a region in Dammam, and other providers have in-Kingdom regions live or announced, so backups and logs can be kept in Saudi Arabia where your requirements call for it. Many cloud security services process data outside the Kingdom, so we check where each tool stores data, as its vendor publishes it, before you sign. Your compliance team decides the requirements; we configure the platform to match. See Google Cloud in Saudi Arabia and in-country data residency.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Where should a Saudi company start with cybersecurity?
With the basics that stop most attacks: multi-factor sign-in for every user, email filtering with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, endpoint protection with EDR, and backups you have restored at least once. A check of what is publicly visible about your domain, plus a paid review of your Microsoft 365, Google Workspace or Zoho setup with a written report, shows which of these you already have. We then fix the gaps in that order.
How do you support our compliance requirements?
Your compliance team decides the requirements; we configure the platform to match and give you a record of the settings. We serve Saudi customers remotely from our Dubai office.
What does Microsoft Defender for Business cost in Saudi Arabia?
We quote Defender for Business for your requirement, in USD. It covers EDR and antivirus on up to 300 users' devices. It is also included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium with Copilot, USD 32.00 per user per month billed annually as of October 2026, which many companies choose because it adds Intune, conditional access and Copilot.
Where do you serve Saudi customers from?
We serve Saudi customers from our Dubai office, where support runs Sunday to Friday, covering the whole Saudi working week. Security reviews, cloud-managed endpoint and email protection, backup monitoring and training all run remotely for companies in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Khobar, with support in Arabic and English.
