Overview

DTS Solution is a cybersecurity consultancy and managed security provider established in 2011 and headquartered in Dubai, with offices in Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Kuwait City, London and Yerevan. In January 2023 Beyon Cyber, part of Bahrain’s Beyon Group (formerly Batelco), acquired a majority stake, and DTS now operates as a Beyon Cyber company under its own brand.

Its managed security business is HawkEye, a 24×7 cybersecurity operations centre run from Dubai and Abu Dhabi that offers managed detection and response, threat hunting, investigations and threat intelligence. HawkEye is sold both as a shared multi-tenant SOC-as-a-Service built on NG-SIEM, UEBA, SOAR and open XDR tooling and as dedicated SIEM operations, with a specific remote-monitoring offering for ICS/OT environments. DTS lists SOC 2 Type 1, ISO 27001 and SOC-CMM credentials and appears in the CREST member marketplace.

Alongside HawkEye, DTS runs a large advisory and engineering practice covering cyber strategy and GRC, red/blue/purple teaming, penetration testing, incident response and digital forensics, and security architecture work such as firewall migrations. This mix of consulting and managed operations, aimed at regulated GCC sectors such as government, energy and finance, is its main differentiator.

Innovation Matrix Assessment

Innovation Velocity 5/10

Has packaged HawkEye into multiple service tiers including OT monitoring and added newer credentials such as ISO 42001, but advances are largely built on third-party SIEM/XDR platforms.

Operational Value 6/10

Pairs 24/7 MDR with in-house consulting, offensive testing and incident response, which helps regulated GCC organisations meet local compliance requirements with one provider.

Market Momentum 6/10

Beyon Cyber's 2023 majority acquisition and offices across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UK and Armenia show regional expansion; customer counts (800+) are self-reported and no revenue is disclosed.

Category Disruption 3/10

A conventional consultancy-plus-MSSP model running a standard SIEM/SOAR/XDR stack; not disruptive to the category.

Real-World Efficacy 5/10

CREST marketplace listing, SOC 2 Type 1 and ISO 27001 provide some third-party assurance, but no independent tests or named incident outcomes were found.

Enduring Relevance 6/10

Strong regulatory and data-residency drivers in the GCC should sustain demand for locally operated SOCs over the next 3-5 years.

Why CISOs Should Care

GCC CISOs needing a locally operated 24/7 SOC plus advisory, OT monitoring and incident response under regional regulatory regimes can source all of it from DTS.

What Makes It Different

The combination of a branded managed SOC (HawkEye) with a sizeable consulting and offensive-security practice, backed by a regional telecom group, sets it apart from pure-play resellers in the region.

The Matrix Verdict

52/100 — INCREMENTAL INNOVATOR

Scores 31/60 (52/100), placing DTS Solution in the Incremental tier. It is a capable regional services provider with credible certifications and corporate backing, but its conventional stack and limited independent efficacy evidence cap its score.

Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings

Customer and project counts (800+ customers, 700+ firewall migrations) come from the company's website; independently verifiable facts are the 2011 founding, the 2023 Beyon Cyber majority acquisition reported by regional press, and its CREST marketplace listing.
