Some of the many fruits of the Abraham Accords were demonstrated on the main stage of Cybertech Global 2023 in Tel Aviv this morning, with a first-of-its-kind discussion between cyber leaders of Israel, the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco and the US.
Gabi Portnoy, Director General of the Israel National Cyber Directorate (INCD), was joined on stage by H.E. Mohamed al Kuwaiti, Head of Cyber Security, UAE; Sheikh Salman bin Mohammed bin Abdullah al Khalifa, CEO of the National Cyber Security Center, Bahrain; and Brig. Gen. El Mostafa Rabii, Director General, DGSSI and Director of maCERT, Morocco; and Robert Silvers, Undersecretary for Policy, Department of Homeland Security, US. The panel was moderated by Aviram Atzaba, INCD’s Executive Director for Int’l Cooperation.
“We are a team now, this partnership is a great achievement,” said Rabii. “Because of the existence of criminals of various groups, cyber threats have no borders – and I think the same goes for us. We need to get our teams to work together on concrete cases, to foster trust between us.”
