    VANCOUVER, British Columbia –TheNewswire - April 24,2025 –Integrated Cyber Solutions,
    Inc. IICS (FSE: 4YG) (OTCQB: IGCRF), aleader in human-centered cybersecurity services, today announced thesigning of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) withKIBA Consulting, a UAE-based firm with deep expertise across the Middle Eastand Africa (MEA). This partnership enables Integrated Cyber to expandthe reach of its behavioral cybersecurity programs and Human Firewallplatform across some of the world's most vulnerable and rapidlyevolving digital markets.

    With rising cybercrime and increasing regulatorypressure across the MEA region, people-first cybersecurity solutionsare urgently needed. In the UAE alone, recent reports show phishingand email-based fraud account for over 12% of all cyber incidents. Atthe same time, digital infrastructure exposure continues to grow asbusinesses accelerate cloud adoption and digital transformation.Across the broader MEA market, the cybersecurity industry is projectedto surpass $15 billion by2028, driven by regional investments in criticalinfrastructure and smart city initiatives.

    "Our partnership with KIBA Consulting is astrategic move to extend our impact across the UAE and the greater MEAregion," said AlanGuibord, CEO of Integrated Cyber Solutions."We're seeing a clear demand for cybersecurity models that gobeyond systems and start with people. With KIBA's local knowledge andnetwork, we can rapidly deploy tailored training programs that helporganizations mitigate the human risks most often exploited byattackers."

    "The cybersecurity landscape in the UAE and widerGCC is at an inflection point. As nations accelerate their digitalambitions—through smart city initiatives, AI integration, andfinancial digitization—the need for robust, human-centric cyberdefenses has never been more urgent," commented Dr. SanjayNadkarni, Board Advisor to KIBA Consultants. "With the regionalmarket expected to exceed $15 billion by 2028, this presents atransformative opportunity to build cyber resilience not just throughtechnology, but by empowering people. The partnership betweenIntegrated Cyber and KIBA is a timely step toward bridging thiscritical gap in the region."

    The MoU enables KIBA to serve as Integrated Cyber'sin-country delivery partner across the region, supporting localizedrollouts of training modules, phishing simulations, behavioralanalytics, and adaptive learning paths—all delivered throughIntegrated Cyber's AI-enhanced Human Firewall platform.

    As with its recent expansions in India, Sri Lanka, andthe Middle East, this partnership further reinforces IntegratedCyber's global growth strategy: one that aligns with digitalacceleration trends while addressing the most commonly exploitedweakness in cyber defense—human error.
