Kuwait's oil sector has developed a robust cybersecurity system to protect the national economy from potential threats.
The system is regularly updated to meet international standards, using penetration testing and Artificial Intelligence tools for detection.
Regular training of oil sector personnel is another strategy to stay updated with the latest cybersecurity research.
Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) and its affiliates have multiple cybersecurity centers to enhance protection and implement defense systems.
The industry’s importance is emphasised due to the growing frequency of cyber attacks and the need to maintain operations.
The government is also promoting cooperation between oil companies and state bodies to provide a safer environment.
