FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How does penetration testing support compliance with UAE cybersecurity laws?

Penetration testing helps organizations in the UAE meet requirements under the National Electronic Security Authority (NESA) standards, Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA) guidelines, and sector-specific rules. By proactively identifying vulnerabilities, businesses demonstrate due diligence and align with UAE cybersecurity expectations, reducing regulatory and reputational risks.

Is remote penetration testing acceptable in the UAE?

Yes, remote penetration testing is widely practiced in the UAE, provided it is authorized, legally scoped, and conducted by trusted providers. However, specific highly regulated industries, such as finance or government, may require on-site or hybrid testing to ensure compliance with stricter data residency and security requirements.

Is penetration testing required under the UAE’s PDPL?

The UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) does not explicitly mandate penetration testing, but it requires organizations to implement appropriate security measures. Regular penetration testing is considered a best practice for demonstrating compliance with PDPL’s requirements to safeguard personal data against unauthorized access, breaches, or misuse.

How often should companies in the UAE perform penetration tests?

Most companies should perform penetration testing at least once a year, and after making significant changes to their systems or infrastructure. Heavily regulated industries, such as banking, healthcare, and government services, may require more frequent testing and continuous monitoring to meet sector-specific cybersecurity standards and evolving regulatory obligations.

How long does a typical penetration test engagement take in the UAE?

The duration of a penetration test in the UAE varies by scope, but most projects typically range from 10 to 15 business days. Smaller tests, such as web applications, may take a few days to complete, while larger engagements covering networks, cloud systems, and compliance reporting can take longer.

Does penetration testing help reduce cyber insurance premiums in the UAE?

Yes, many cyber insurance providers in the UAE consider penetration testing as part of an organization’s risk management strategy. Regular testing can demonstrate proactive security measures, potentially leading to lower premiums, broader coverage, or easier policy approval, especially in high-risk industries like finance, healthcare, and energy.
