Mobily's tech-driven approach to boost Kingdom's economy
The utilities & energy sector is experiencing a phase that is underpinned by numerous operational
and external factors such as aging infrastructure, changing energy regulations, pressures on return
on investment, shifts in energy consumption patterns, demands of dynamic pricing, distribution
efficiency, cost control and better customer experience. These factors are compelling these
organizations to fundamentally rethink their strategies to remain competitive and cost efficient.
Disruptive technologies like IoT, edge computing, Big Data and Analytics, and AI have provided the
capability to address many of the above-mentioned factors. Hence utilities and energy companies
are harnessing the power of such technologies and also adopting digital transformation initiatives to
remain competitive by deriving benefits from improved forecasting and pricing, extended life and
effectiveness of assets, improved customer satisfaction and ability to address energy regulation
mandates.
According to the World Bank, energy demand in the Middle East is expected to rise at an annual rate
of 1.9%, through 2035. Within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, several Smart City initiatives and Mega
and Giga infrastructure projects are also underway. Moreover, national digitization initiatives and the
programs under the Vision 2030 are leading to heavy investment in network infrastructure year on
year such that the infrastructure sector has been allocated 5.5 percent of the total 2020 budget
equaling SAR 56 billion.
On the backdrop of these developments, Smart Meters provide a suitable solution that can drive
improvements in energy efficiency, reduction in carbon emissions and provide the necessary tools
for predicting demand, managing supply and planning network expansion. Smart meter roll-out can
not only provide detailed and accurate analytics on electrical usage in real-time, but also eliminate
manual monthly meter reading expenses, encourage efficient power utilization and provide
accurate data for balancing electric loads. The utilities sector can also capitalize on data generated
from these smart meters to develop dynamic pricing strategies, optimize profits with existing
resources and develop newer solutions.
Globally, the spending on smart meters is expected grow at a healthy CAGR of 9.3% over the next 5
years and reach SAR 75 billion by 2022. Saudi Arabia and its neighboring GCC countries account for
almost 10% potential of this global spending with only North America and Europe ahead of them
with 20% and 18% respectively (source: World Economic Forum).

Sponsor Interviews 8 - 10 March 2020
In the wake of such developments, the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) has launched a project of
cost SAR 9.5 billion to install 10 million smart meters by 2023 for consumers across the Kingdom.
Mobily is part of a consortium that also includes Al-Fanar Construction China Electric Power
Equipment and Technology (SGCC) to cover multiple regions in the country. SEC has mandated for
3.5 million of these meters to be purchased from local manufacturers in light of National Industrial
Development and Logistics Program’s (NIDLP) aim of growing local manufacturing capabilities to
boost the economy through job creation and increased private sector engagement. For SEC, the
introduction of smart metering is essential for handling a booming energy demand in a fast-paced
economy. Moreover, smart metering implementation projects will provide SEC the opportunity for a
thorough restructuring and liberalization of the Saudi electricity sector. Building the cornerstone of
digital transformation through next-gen infrastructure with trusted partners is going to be a vital
part of Saudi Arabia’s transformation.
Mobily, being one of the leading catalysts of national digitization in the Kingdom, has the abilities
and tools to generate opportunities and new revenues streams for the utility companies. With
data-driven technologies, including AI, RPA, Cloud, Data Centers, IoT sensors, Edge Devices and agile
approaches, Mobily can help the utilities sector its improve operational and maintenance efficien-
cies through tools that can create a culture of constant improvement and aid the utilities sector not
only in terms of value chain, but also improvements in their processes. Furthermore, Mobily’s ecosys-
tem-driven approach towards technology implementation will also play a key role in offering
services to its customers in order to realize their business goals and help build a stronger economy
for the Kingdom.

1. Cyber security is ranked as a high priority in Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. How can your company support Saudi Arabia’s efforts of addressing cyber security collectively? What are you plans for Saudi Arabia?
Fortinet has multiple initiatives in Saudi Arabia. Firstly, close the cybersecurity skill shortage gap by
supporting education, training, mentoring for cybersecurity professionals and every day users in
order to better tackled today’s sophisticated cyberattacks.
Secondly, ensure that Saudi’s students have access to safe and productive environments where they
can advance their education and prepare for their careers. We plan to work closer with couple of
universities in Saudi Arabia to launch FNSA programs (Fortinet Network Security Academy) -
designed to provide industry-recognized Fortinet training and certification opportunities to the next
generation of cybersecurity professionals. The FNSA program collaborates with academic
institutions, non-profit organizations, and veterans programs around the world to help learners to
become part of an elite group of skilled security professionals.
2. The region is embracing disruptive technologies such as cloud and mobility. This raises network and data security concerns. How can your company help address these challenges?
The cloud is a powerful tool, but it has surface simplicity that can mask serious complexities,
especially in terms of security, that if not done right, can create more challenges than it solves. On
the other hand, the amount of data that now moves outside the traditional data center
perimeter - due to the growth of mobile devices, an increased reliance on web applications, and the
rapid transfer of data to the cloud - is also one of the most concerning trends.
Organizations require a comprehensive security strategy that can span all networked environments,
IoT and end user devices, and mobile access points. Our Fortinet Multi-Cloud Solutions provide the
necessary visibility and control across cloud infrastructures, enabling secure applications and
connectivity from data center to cloud.
3. In your opinion, what are the top 3-5 cyber security challenges/aspects/gaps that are prevalent in the MEA region? Why do you think organisations find it difficult to address them?
Closing the Cyber skills Gap : The skills gap continues to accelerate, it is now considered to be one of
the top cybersecurity risks facing many organizations. The true challenge goes beyond the lack of
cybersecurity professionals. Today’s technology users suffer from a general lack of awareness of even
the most basic threats, putting the organizations they work at constant risk of a potentially serious
breach. And that is due to a failure in understanding that cybersecurity is everyone's job, and
organizations need training and education programs that address many different audiences. Public
and private institutions alike must employ a comprehensive workforce initiative around
cybersecurity to create a talent pool that can serve many. Cybersecurity vendors have also a critical
role to play as well, that goes well beyond simply providing training on their own products and
solutions.

Leveraging AI and Automation: As the modern threat landscape continues to expand, adding
artificial intelligence (AI) to a security strategy has become paramount to establishing and
maintaining an effective security posture. Given the speed and complexity of modern cyberthreats,
network security teams need the assistance of machine learning and other AI-based capabilities in
order to detect, secure, and mitigate modern attacks. Unfortunately, many organizations still rely on
legacy point product solutions, incorporating different isolated products into their network,
rendering their ability to adequately detect and respond to today’s advanced attack strategies
obsolete. In order to protect the success of digital transformation, and the new digital economy
driving that transformation, cybersecurity personnel need to get out in front of this challenge now
by leveraging AI-assisted security solutions that provide the breadth and rapid detection and
response capabilities needed to keep pace with modern cybercriminals. That means adopting an
intelligently integrated approach that leverages the power and resources of today's enterprise.
Gain full visibility of the entire network: organizations must implement a SD-WAN solution that
integrates network and security functionality. This deep interoperability between security and
network functions is the hallmark of the next generation of Security-Driven Networking. By weaving
these traditionally separate systems into a single solution, organizations can achieve the visibility and
control necessary to truly secure their entire infrastructure. One of the most common issues facing
organizations looking to deploy an SD-WAN solution is because today’s branch offices have complex
requirements that legacy routers, and even most SD-WAN solutions have simply not been designed
to address. Our Fortinet’s Secure SD-WAN and SD-Branch solutions combine the entire suite of
powerful security tools included in the FortiGate NGFW security appliance – including firewall, IPS,
antivirus, web filtering, and sandboxing – with a rich suite of essential connectivity, bandwidth
management, and application recognition tools to ensure the reliable delivery of even the most
latency-sensitive business applications.
4. What are the new innovations from Fortinet?
Fortinet Secure SD-WAN is one of the few solutions on the market that addresses the FULL range of
challenges being faced by organizations, combining advanced connectivity and traffic and
application management functionality with a full suite of integrated security solutions, including
NGFW, IPS, antivirus/anti-malware, web filtering, a full range of VPN options, and advanced threat
protection solutions such as sandboxing.
In the November 2019 Gartner analyst research report, “Critical Capabilities for WAN Edge
Infrastructure,” Fortinet received the highest score in the “Security-Sensitive WAN” use case, and
ranked within the five highest for all remaining WAN Edge use cases. Gartner went on to recommend
that “users consider the set of critical capabilities as some of the most important criteria for [WAN
Edge infrastructure] acquisition decisions.”
5. What is your opinion on knowledge sharing and networking platforms such as Saudi IoT that address key challenges and provide tangible solutions? How do you look at leveraging these platforms to achieve your business objectives?

Internet of Things (IoT) connected devices have given users the amazing ability to connect devices in
distant, isolated areas saving time and money, while minimizing risk. However, this connectivity
comes at a cost. Remote devices can be susceptible to cyber-attacks such as hacks, viruses and
spyware invasions that can go undetected until it is too late.
We believe that Awareness is critical when trying to determine a balanced security solution for IoT
applications. For that there must be collabs with security professionals, Awareness programs or
workshops must be arranged in order identify the security GAPS as our opinion on cyber security is
straight forward.
“Security is a culture and together we need the business to take place and be part of that security
culture”
3. Logistics in one of the potentials & lucrative verticals - how is IoT been integrated in your solutions?
ANS: When talking about the Internet of Things, we always think about communication. Interaction

This means that the convergence of Information Technology (IT), OperationalTechnology (OT) and Internet of Things (IoT) resulting from digital transformation must go hand in hand with cybersecurity transformation. Therefore, the challenge of staying abreast of novel and sophisticated cyber-threats is the correct implementation, operation, real-time monitoring, and constant improvement of cybersecurity systems.

With powerful capabilities in Odyssey’s arsenal, we help our customers in the Kingdom achieve their Saudi Vision 2030 goals while helping secure their information assets and business continuity from a cybersecurity standpoint.
3. What are Odyssey’s solutions most relevant to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia?
Digital transformation inevitably comes with an exponential growth and increased complexity of cyber-threats. Therefore, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia must maintain its leading position incybersecurity investment, especially since state-sponsored attacks and cyber warfare have become an everyday reality.As stated earlier, Odyssey has a permanent and growing presence in the Kingdom, mainly because our vision and values are well received by its people. With almost two decades of successful business and steady growth in providing high-quality cybersecurity services to all continents and withpermanent offices in four countries, we demonstrate time and time again our commitment to our customers through hard work and a professional ethos that yield results.
Our people are some of the best cybersecurity experts in the world, with vast experience and a passion for their work that is second to none.

AEC SMART MOSQUE SOLUTION
The smart mosque solution is designed to be a major energy-saver for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. There are over 90,000 mosques across the Kingdom that consume approximately 20.6 Billion KWh of energy, annually. With such a large volume of energy being consumed by mosques alone, there is a need to show a sense of responsiveness in managing the energy consumption patterns of Saudi Arabian mosques. Furthermore, the Kingdom is undergoing a phase of rapid digitalization across multiple industries. The Mosque smart solution is a good use case and can be replicated for other buildings such as hospitals and schools which are integral part of Saudi Arabia’s infrastructural landscape, there is a need to include them in the ambit of digital transformation. The smart building solution is meant to improve the energy efficiency of public buildings , enhance the internal building environment, whilst offer utility to users .
Our experts define a smart mosque as ‘an actionable and automated mosque that deploysdigital technologies to offer enhanced experiences to worshippers whilst fostering safety andenergy-efficiency across the premises’.
The success of the smart mosque solution lies in its ability to generate utility for three entities, viz. the worshippers, the mosque management, and national-level planners.
Utility for Worshippers
By offering daily reminders for prayer and Iqamah timings, separate audio lessons and voicetransmission for women’s section, the smart mosque solution offers unique experiences toworshippers. Furthermore, the presence of automated cooling sensors, smart oud dissipators, and CCTV security nodes, smart mosques create a protected, ambient, and pleasant environment for visitors.
Utility for Mosque Management
With a large number of people visiting mosques on a daily basis, it is important for the mosque management to keep a track of internal activities. A smart mosque is enabled with tracking features, mobile apps and dashboards, fire alarms, and smart locks. The Imam can be offered central control for all of the aforementioned features. Digital management and tracking of Islamic events, andarea-adaptation and expansion of mosque for Friday prayers is also an important feature of the smart mosque solution.

success stories 8 - 10 March 2020
Utility for National Planners
Energy-efficient mosques can largely help governments and state-level planning authorities. The smart mosque solution aligns with the goals of increased energy-saving, digital transformation, and improved living standards stipulated within Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. Use of data related to water and energy consumption can help in better planning and decision-making. A dedicated data-center across Smart Mosque Operation Center (SMOC) can help in storing, processing, and retrieving data pertaining to smart mosques.
AEC’s smart mosque solution has an edge over other technologies used across mosques. It is a one-of-its-kind, 360-degree solution that encapsulates a multi-tier model for digitalization.Furthermore, AEC provides a macro-level solution that touches all the major challenges related to energy, security, and mosque management. Mosques are required to resort to multiple vendors for different technologies such as cooling equipment, CCTV, smart doors, and data collation. AEC provides a one-stop-solution to all such needs of mosques by being a manufacturer as well as a system-integra-tor for smart mosque solution.
Objectives:
AEC’s smart mosque solution aims to provide a nation-wide solution for the Saudi Arabian government to generate utility for mosque visitors, save energy, and have a central control center. Mosques in the Kingdom cut through urban and rural barriers, and the pervasive nature of mosques necessitates a system that can be deployed across all mosques. Furthermore, the solution intends to complement Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 that focuses on fostering digital transformations.
Three main objectives of Smart solution are:
• Providing enhanced experiences to worshippers• Cutting down on the large amount of energy consumed by mosques in the Kingdom• Improving safety and connectivity of mosques
The smart mosque solution was initially employed at one of the largest Mosques in Riyadh. The results from the mosque favored the deployment of this solution across all major Saudi Arabian mosques especially those, which use Centralized AC units. Not only did it invite positive responses from visitors, but also helped in saving formidable amount of energy. The following improvements were achieved;
• 40% reduction in energy costs through the use of AI and IoT sensors• 25% reduction in water wastage• 10% reduction in operating costs
It is estimated that 2.9 Billion SAR can be saved in just 10 years by converting 6,600 medium to large mosques into smart mosques across the Kingdom.
