Group-IB, a global leader in cybersecurity and digital crime investigation, has officially launched operations in Egypt—marking a significant expansion of its Middle East and Africa (MEA) strategy. The move aims to support the country’s surging demand for advanced cyber defense and enhance digital resilience across the region.
Through its new Cairo-based operations and trusted local distributor, Group-IB will deliver tailored cybersecurity solutions to enterprises, government agencies, and critical infrastructure. These services include threat intelligence, digital risk protection, and real-time incident response.
“Egypt is a key part of our vision. We’re investing in local talent, responding in real-time to regional threats, and tailoring our solutions to match the unique challenges faced by our partners on the ground.”

“With cyber threats evolving rapidly across the GCC and beyond, our growing local team in Cairo ensures we’re positioned closer to our partners and better equipped to respond with speed and precision,” said Ahmed Tharwat, Regional Director – Africa, Levant, and Qatar at Group-IB.
The expansion is part of Group-IB’s “glocal” approach—merging global threat intelligence with local execution. Already proven in the UAE and wider GCC, this model supports faster, more relevant responses to cyber threats while ensuring compliance with regional regulations.
Group-IB’s Cairo team is actively supporting key sectors and will further strengthen Egypt’s cyber ecosystem through professional training programs. The company also plans to showcase its capabilities at CAISEC 2025, Egypt’s leading cybersecurity conference.
With a strong global presence and a decentralized model focused on local expertise, Group-IB continues to play a critical role in helping governments and businesses defend against the rising tide of cyber threats across MEA.
