Transmed, one of the region’s largest and fastest growing FMCG companies, has transformed its security operations centre (SOC) with a fully managed deployment of Palo Alto Networks AI-driven Cortex platform through the Unit 42 Managed XSIAM (MSIAM) service. The deployment enables Transmed to neutralize an increasingly complex threat landscape with industry-leading AI and automation, while scaling its operations across the region.
Transmed, which represents multinational companies including P&G, Mars, Clorox, Kellogg’s, Ülker, and Danone in the Levant, Gulf, Africa and Europe, enhanced its SOC outcomes with 24×7 managed operations powered by MSIAM’s combination of a best-in-class AI-driven platform with elite expertise. This is particularly important in the FMCG sector, which is time-sensitive and multi-layered, placing greater demand on security teams.
Dr. Ahmad Mourad, Chief Information Officer at Transmed, said, “Partnering with Palo Alto Networks has fundamentally transformed our cybersecurity posture, delivering a next-generation SOC built for our ambitious growth. By leveraging the Unit 42 Managed XSIAM service to automate our operations, we have supercharged our detection and response capabilities, while empowering our security team to deliver proactive protection, safeguarding over 1,600 endpoints across our expanding regional markets and businesses.”
In just four months, Transmed successfully transformed its security operations by deploying Palo Alto Networks Managed XSIAM service, operated by Unit 42 experts. By partnering with Palo Alto Networks for a fully managed, 24/7 SOC, Transmed has eliminated operational complexity and significantly enhanced its overall defense posture. This best-in-class managed solution unifies continuous monitoring, pro-active threat hunting, and automated response capabilities into a single, cohesive operation. With Unit 42 providing around-the-clock vigilance and rapid incident resolution, Transmed’s security team has achieved peace of mind, streamlined case management, and the ability to neutralize emerging vulnerabilities before they impact the business.
Samer El Kodsi, Regional Vice President, Gulf & North Africa at Palo Alto Networks, said, “Transmed’s deployment of MSIAM demonstrates how ambitious companies in the region can leverage AI-driven automation to transform their security posture and enable safe growth. The fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector is exceptionally demanding. Protecting vast supply chains, including 40 distribution centers across 12 countries, requires real-time resilience against high-volume threats. By implementing our automated platform in just four months, Transmed has effectively neutralized complex risks and set a new benchmark for proactive, AI-enabled security in the modern logistics and consumer goods landscape.”
