Solas Security: a beacon of cyber resilience

Our story

Founded in Dubai. Operated in the environments we secure.

Solas Security was founded in Dubai in 2023 by a team with over 10 years of experience in maritime and cyber security, in partnership with Solverminds, a global maritime technology leader.

The partnership was built on a shared conviction: that security in critical industries must be led by people who have operated in those environments, not just advised on them. Today, Solas builds the AI-governance overlay that sits on top of the security and GRC stack regulated operators already own (discovery, posture, release gating and tamper-evident evidence), wrapped by the consulting and managed-security teams that run it. We map engagements to UAE PDPL, NESA/SIA and ADHICS before ISO or the EU AI Act, because those are the regimes that reach our customers first. Local presence, local accountability, across the Middle East and Southeast Asia.
