It\u2019s about doing it in a way that keeps data in-country and aligned with local requirements.\\n\\nToday, we\u2019re introducing the **Wallarm Middle East Cloud Point of Presence (POP)** , giving organizations a new way to secure APIs and AI systems while keeping their data exactly where it needs to be.\\n\\n## **A new regional point of presence for the Wallarm platform**\\n\\nThe Wallarm Middle East Cloud is a new regional POP that enables customers to process security data within the Middle East. It delivers the same Wallarm platform used globally, now with regional data processing support.\\n\\nOrganizations operating in Saudi Arabia and across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are facing clear requirements around where data is processed and stored. That includes security data generated from APIs and applications.\\n\\nWith the Middle East POP, you can:\\n\\n * Keep API traffic metadata, security events, and analytics within the region\\n * Align with local data residency and compliance requirements\\n * Adopt modern API and AI security without introducing regulatory friction\\n\\n\\n\\nThis is especially relevant for industries where compliance is non-negotiable, including government, financial services, telecom, and critical infrastructure.\\n\\nYou get the same Wallarm protection you trust, now aligned with regional data residency requirements, including full API visibility, real-time protection, security testing, and governance, all with in-region data processing.\\n\\n## **Lower latency, better performance**\\n\\nIn addition to meeting regional data residency requirements, you also benefit from lower latency and faster overall platform performance.\\n\\nBy processing data closer to your applications, Wallarm can respond more quickly across detection, analysis, and enforcement. That means a more responsive experience when you\u2019re investigating activity, reviewing alerts, or stopping attacks in real time.\\n\\n## **Who should use the Middle East cloud**\\n\\nThe Middle East POP is designed for organizations that need to keep data within the region while maintaining strong API security.\\n\\nThat includes:\\n\\n * Saudi-based organizations with in-country data requirements\\n * Companies operating across the GCC\\n * Global organizations expanding into the Middle East\\n\\n\\n\\nIf data residency is part of your security or compliance strategy, this gives you a straightforward path forward.\\n\\n## **Getting started**\\n\\nTo learn more, explore the documentation for the Middle East cloud.\\n\\nIf you\u2019re interested in getting started or have questions about your environment, your Wallarm team is here to help.
