Rajesh Menon, Partner and Head of Advisory at KPMG in Qatar said; “it is fantastic that we have been recognised globally as a leader in IT security. In Qatar, we seeing an increase in the number of clients looking for solutions to keep their data and systems secure and the award proves that KPMG is the clear choice in this field. KPMG has moved cyber security to the heart of its business,” according to the Forrester Research report authored by Martin Whitworth. “KPMG [International] recently listed cyber security as one of its six strategic growth initiatives... To bolster this commitment the [organization] has increased and deepened its range of services, investing heavily in R&D and acquisitions.”
According to the Forrester report: “[Clients] also identify strategic advice, subject matter expertise, flexibility and adaptability and delivery of commitments as being strengths for KPMG. Larger clients also praise the company’s ownership of the I-4 organisation as an excellent peer-to-peer networking opportunity outside of consulting engagements.”
The Forrester report also states that, “KPMG has a clear view of the relevant security issues for business executives and technicians.” This is backed up by the findings of the KPMG Global CEO Outlook survey, a study of 1,200 of global chief executives, which revealed that only half of respondents said they were fully prepared for a future cyber event.
