HaxUnit and Liplyn Information Group have partnered to help organizations across the UAE and the wider Gulf strengthen cyber resilience through continuous monitoring of external cyber exposure and improved evidence for information security governance and ISO/IEC 27001 certification.
The partnership combines HaxUnit’s cybersecurity platform with Liplyn Information Group’s regional presence and more than 20 years of experience in AI, data-driven digital growth and international market development. Supported through Liplyn’s Dubai office, the initiative will initially target sectors with complex or rapidly evolving digital environments, including real estate, hospitality, financial services, energy, technology and professional services.
The announcement comes as organizations across the Gulf expand their adoption of cloud platforms, artificial intelligence, APIs, mobile services, smart-building systems and connected infrastructure, increasing the size and complexity of internet-facing attack surfaces.
HaxUnit develops AI-powered cybersecurity platform
HaxUnit said it has developed a proprietary platform-level AI cybersecurity agent over several years to automate external asset discovery, vulnerability assessment, contextual prioritization, remediation guidance, verification and report generation within an authorized customer scope.
Starting from an approved domain or asset group, the platform identifies associated subdomains, IP addresses, open services and underlying technologies. It continuously assesses exposed assets for vulnerabilities and security misconfigurations, attaches technical evidence and reproduction guidance to findings, and enables teams to verify remediation through retesting.
The company said customers do not need to install endpoint software or add code to their systems, as the service assesses externally reachable assets associated with domains and infrastructure owned by, or explicitly authorized for testing by, the customer. According to HaxUnit, the platform has completed more than 10,000 vulnerability scans, discovered over 75,000 assets and prioritized more than 5,000 security findings.
Supporting ISO/IEC 27001 compliance
The partnership will also focus on helping organizations pursuing or maintaining ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification by providing structured reporting that supports information security management and certification activities.
Depending on the agreed scope, reporting can document external asset visibility, detected vulnerabilities, risk prioritization, remediation ownership and status, retest results, technical evidence and management-level summaries.
The companies said this creates a clearer evidence trail for internal reviews, customer assurance processes and independent audits. HaxUnit does not issue ISO certifications and does not replace an organization’s information security management system, independent auditor or accredited certification body.
“The Gulf is building digital services and connected environments at remarkable speed. The right response is not to slow innovation, but to make cyber visibility continuous, measurable and accountable. HaxUnit has been developed over several years to turn a complex external footprint into clear action. Together, we can help leadership teams understand what is exposed, priorities what matters and maintain the evidence expected by clients, boards and ISO auditors.”
Continuous tracking and monitoring
Under the partnership, organizations can begin with an authorized baseline assessment of their internet-facing environment before progressing to continuous monitoring, remediation tracking and executive reporting. Enterprise deployments may also include custom integrations, API access and on-premise deployment, subject to customer requirements and technical assessment.
The companies also plan to develop sector-specific reporting and portfolio views for organizations managing multiple brands, properties, operating companies or digital platforms, providing leadership teams with a consolidated view of cyber exposure while maintaining controlled access to sensitive technical findings.
The companies said the partnership aligns with the region’s increasing focus on cyber resilience and the secure adoption of artificial intelligence. They added that the HaxUnit–Liplyn partnership is an independent commercial initiative, with all assessments limited to customer-owned or explicitly authorized assets under an agreed scope.
