Beyon Cyber, part of the Beyon Group, has been recognised with three major accolades at the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, one of the industry’s most renowned awards, voted on by the global cybersecurity community and independently assessed.
Competing in the highly contested 100-500 employee category, Beyon Cyber demonstrated exceptional performance, outshining both regional and global competitors to secure multiple prestigious accolades.
The company was recognised as the ‘Fastest Growing Cybersecurity Company’, a testament to its rapid expansion and market impact. Furthermore, Beyon Cyber’s commitment to cutting-edge solutions was highlighted by its recognition for ‘Excellence in Cybersecurity Innovation’ for its proprietary platform, Intel X.
The leadership and vision driving this success were also acknowledged, with Beyon Cyber’s chief executive Dr Shaikh Khalid bin Daij Al Khalifa being honoured as the ‘Cybersecurity CEO of the Year’.
These awards are a clear signal of Beyon Cyber’s emergence as a pioneering cybersecurity force built in Bahrain, with the vision, scale, and in-house technology to redefine how cyber defence is delivered across the region.
Developed in 2024 by Beyon Cyber Labs in Bahrain, Intel X is now actively deployed across regional enterprises, allowing Intel X enabled clients to leverage the latest AI and automation technologies in security operations, and move away from the slow and outdated methods that struggle to keep up with fast evolving cyber threats, at a fraction of the typical cost.
Intel X delivers this effect through real time threat intelligence detection and containment across an enterprise’s security controls in seconds as opposed to weeks, significantly minimising risk and exposure to known threats.
This one-of-a-kind tool was recognised with the Innovation award, further solidifying Beyon Cyber’s role as a disruptor in security operations space.
Holger Schulze, chief executive of Cybersecurity Insiders, the largest global community of cybersecurity professionals and the organisation behind the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, said: “Beyon Cyber stood out for its momentum, product innovation, and executive leadership in one of the world’s most competitive regions.”
The ‘Cybersecurity CEO of the Year’ award honours Dr Shaikh Khalid and the wider executive team for their leadership in steering Beyon Cyber through a phase of rapid growth, regional market penetration, and innovative in-house developments.
“These awards reflect the outcomes we deliver – and the ambition we bring to the region,” commented Dr Shaikh Khalid. “We’re proving that cybersecurity innovation can be built locally, scaled regionally, and trusted globally.”
With an expanding ecosystem of clients, strategic partnerships, and ongoing investment in R&D, Beyon Cyber is not just growing – it is pioneering a more secure digital future for the GCC and beyond.
