The 7th Annual GEC Awards in Dubai
Located in Dubai, GEC Media Group is a Middle East and Africa-based leading Media house, specialized in ICT publications, events marketing and communications services.

“It’s really great to see that BeyondTrust have been selected for these prestigious awards,” stated, John Hathaway, BeyondTrust’s RVP Middle-East & India, following the back-to back wins. ”Our presence in the region is constantly growing, and the work we have done this year has been especially rewarding considering the circumstances.
“Our presence and agility enabled us to support customers and prospects in a timely manner during the pandemic, which forced organizations to securely turn remote in weeks,” continued John “As the unpredictable landscape continues to change in 2021, we will continue to adapt and hope to enable many more customers with our market-leading PAM solutions.”
