Veronica Martin caught up with Jose Menacherry, Managing Director at Bulwark Technologies to discuss GITEX 2022 and the company’s plans for the region.
Can you tell our readers about some of the solutions and partnerships during GITEX this year?
We are the leading supplier of IT Security and ICT (information, communications, and technology) products, providing technological advancements for more than 20 vendors and collaborating with more than 500 partners to bring the best security solutions (cloud security, email security management and security training) to the Middle East.
The value-added distributor delivers the appropriate solutions to end customers by collaborating with a large network of resellers and system integrators. We offer information security solutions that include network security, cloud security, OT/IoT security, robotic process automation (RPA), and other specialised solutions for cyber security.
In the last 12 months, how has your company performed in the MENA market? Has your company ventured into any new markets/countries?
During the pandemic the market was quite slow, but in the last month activities have really picked up and we have been very active in the GCC. Through our network of partners, we provide value-added services around-the-clock in the Middle East and Indian subcontinent and we have also expanded our business to Saudi Arabia, where we have opened an office recently.
Which technologies and IT trends are the forefront of driving innovation for your business?
If we look at the whole situation, most of companies went for remote secure access, digitalisation and cloud adoption in the past, but after the pandemic, they had to add security into that.
We have training labs providing high end solution training and partner enablement, a dedicated & active 500+ reseller network in the region, a diverse customer experience giving us an edge to understand different industry verticals & their requirements and a strong technical knowledge base & back-end support
We also have excellent recognition with all leading vendors as we promote and market their product and provide local support.

We only sign up with the vendors after an extensive evaluation and we provide the security solutions needed for different industry verticals and types of customers.
We specialise in high-end enterprise security solutions and deploy them via influential system integrators in the area. We also have a strong track record of providing world-class products and first-rate customer support. Our broad product line has everything a business needs to secure its data.
