Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: At the recent Cisco Managed Services Partner Leadership Forum on September 16 and 17, i4 Solutions underscored its growing leadership in the regional cybersecurity landscape. General Manager Boutros El Haddad joined Cisco executives Yves Mertens and Eric Bostick on stage to spotlight how Cisco Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is transforming managed security services.

Their session highlighted the platform’s ability to identify threats earlier, tighten defenses, and deliver proactive security strategies that empower enterprises to operate with greater confidence in an increasingly hostile digital environment.

The discussion emphasized that Cisco XDR is not just a technology layer, but the foundation of i4 Solutions’ Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) model. By integrating detection, analytics, and rapid response, i4 Solutions is positioning itself as a trusted partner for organizations seeking to outpace evolving cyber threats while maintaining operational agility. The showcase reinforced a central message: security must evolve at the same speed as digital transformation, and strategic partnerships are the key to success.

This milestone moment comes at a time of recognition for i4 Solutions, which has recently been awarded two major Cisco partner designations: Extended Detection and Response Solution Specialized and Premier Provider. These certifications stand as a testament to the company’s commitment to innovation, technical expertise, and delivering measurable value to clients.

Commenting on the achievement, Boutros El Haddad said: “Earning these certifications and standing on stage with Cisco to showcase the power of XDR is a proud moment for our team. It reflects the dedication of our people and our mission to give customers the confidence to innovate and grow securely. At i4 Solutions, we believe that cybersecurity is not just about protecting businesses, it’s about enabling their future.”
