EDGE entity ORYXLABS, a leading provider of digital risk protection and advanced cyber solutions, has partnered with the UAE Cyber Security Council (CSC) to jointly produce the State of the GCC Report, a landmark report on email server security.
The report, which was released today during GITEX Global 2025, provides a comprehensive technical analysis of email server security and authentication measures across the GCC, with special emphasis on building long-term resilience for government and industry.
“The findings of this year’s report reaffirm the GCC’s growing alignment in strengthening digital trust. Email authentication remains a cornerstone of cyber resilience – protecting communications, enabling secure collaboration, and reinforcing confidence in our digital economies,” said Dr. Mohamed Al-Kuwaiti, Head of the Cybersecurity Council.
He added that the council will continue to foster cooperation across borders and sectors, ensuring a safer, more trusted digital future.
Rogério Lemos, CEO of ORYXLABS, stated, “As the GCC advances its digital transformation, secure communications are at the core of regional security. This report, jointly produced by ORYXLABS and CSC, reflects our commitment to protect and strengthen resilience at scale. We are proud to collaborate with the UAE Cyber Security Council and expand the reach of our technical insights.”
The second report of its kind, the 2025 State of the GCC Report provides data-driven insights from nearly 600,000 servers across the UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, and Kuwait. It highlights patterns in email security across the region and develops key recommendations for scaling the adoption of SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configurations.
