Al-Futtaim Technologies partners with AIShield to secure enterprise AI

Al-Futtaim Technologies, part of Al-Futtaim Contracting, has announced a strategic partnership with AIShield to expand its cybersecurity portfolio for enterprise AI ecosystems. The company said the collaboration addresses the growing need to protect AI systems as organizations integrate AI, machine learning, and Generative AI technologies into critical business operations.

Al-Futtaim Technologies positioned the partnership as a move from traditional cybersecurity models and product resale agreements toward what it described as “Security for AI.” The company said the collaboration focuses on securing the full AI lifecycle, including development, testing, deployment, and runtime monitoring.

Through the integration of AIShield’s capabilities into its cybersecurity portfolio, Al-Futtaim Technologies said organizations will be able to strengthen protection against AI-specific threats. These include model extraction, adversarial attacks, prompt injection, and other vulnerabilities affecting AI and GenAI systems.

The companies said the runtime protection capabilities will help enterprises monitor and secure AI models during operation. The solution is also designed to integrate with wider enterprise security ecosystems, including SIEM, WAF, DLP, SOC, and XDR environments.

Al-Futtaim Technologies said the initiative also supports alignment with OWASP AI security standards, MITRE ATLAS, and AI regulatory readiness initiatives such as the EU AI Act, as regional businesses navigate AI governance and compliance requirements.

 “With AI rapidly becoming embedded across enterprise operations, organizations are facing an entirely new category of cybersecurity risks,” said Razi Hamada, General Manager at Al-Futtaim Technologies. Hamada said the company’s work with AIShield is intended to help businesses strengthen trust, resilience, and governance across their AI environments by securing the AI lifecycle from development to deployment and beyond.

Al-Futtaim Technologies says it works under its “Partners of Possibilities” framework with global technology providers to deliver secure, scalable, and future-ready digital solutions. The company said it provides end-to-end capabilities across system design, integration, deployment, testing, commissioning, and ongoing support.
