e& UAE today announced the launch of its secure website hosting service, providing government entities and businesses with locally hosted website infrastructure supported by 24/7 network and security monitoring.
Hosted within e& UAE’s on-premises data centres and operating under the oversight of the UAE Cyber Security Council, the service is designed for organisations seeking greater control over the security, availability and performance of public-facing and business-critical websites. It combines hosting infrastructure with continuous oversight from e& UAE’s Network Operations Centre (NOC) and Security Operations Centre (SOC), helping customers address operational risks while meeting local regulatory, cybersecurity and data residency requirements.
The NOC continuously monitors website performance, availability and network health, while the SOC provides around-the-clock visibility into security events, threats and vulnerabilities. This integrated approach enables potential issues to be identified earlier and supports faster incident response, helping organisations reduce downtime and maintain continuity of their digital services.
His Excellency Dr
Mohamed Hamad Al Kuwaiti, Head of Cyber Security for the UAE Government, said:
“As government and business services become increasingly digital, website availability, data protection and incident readiness must be addressed as part of a broader approach to cyber resilience. Organisations should embed security into the design and operation of their digital infrastructure, maintain clear oversight of their data and systems, and ensure that appropriate monitoring and response measures are in place.”
Abdulla Al Ahmed, Chief Government & VVIP Relations Officer, e& UAE, said: “As organisations become increasingly dependent on digital services, website availability and cybersecurity need to be managed as part of the same environment. Our secure website hosting service brings infrastructure, network operations and security operations together to give customers local hosting, continuous visibility and responsive support. This helps government entities and businesses reduce operational complexity, strengthen the protection of their digital services and scale their infrastructure as their requirements evolve.”
The service incorporates security controls including firewalls, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection and log monitoring. Customers can also access advanced security capabilities such as web application firewall (WAF) protection, vulnerability assessments and security reporting, supporting a layered approach to safeguarding websites and applications.
By hosting websites locally within e& UAE infrastructure, customers can also benefit from reduced latency and greater control over data residency. Flexible hosting capacity allows organisations to scale resources in line with changing demand, business expansion and wider digital transformation programmes.
Service-level agreements cover key areas including availability, support and incident response, giving customers clearly defined service parameters and access to e& UAE’s technical expertise. The managed model also reduces the operational burden on internal IT teams by bringing hosting, monitoring and security capabilities together through a single provider.
The service is aimed at government organisations, enterprises and medium-sized businesses operating public-facing, high-traffic or business-critical websites, as well as IT, cybersecurity and digital transformation teams seeking locally hosted infrastructure with continuous operational and security oversight.
Customers can contact their e& UAE account manager or visit the e& UAE business website to request further information, a technical assessment or support with migrating and deploying websites on e& UAE infrastructure.
