Axidian’s Focus at Black Hat MEA

We are especially excited to unveil Axidian Shield, a pioneering Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) solution, which is poised to transform the way organizations protect user identities. Another thing that we observe in the region and in the industry is that having a reliable product or the most advanced technology is vital but it is not enough.
