Amiviz, Middle East’s leading cybersecurity and AI-focused value-added distributor announces strategic distribution partnership with Acalvio an AI-powered pre-emptive cybersecurity company. Under the agreement, AmiViz will distribute cybersecurity solutions powered by Acalvio’s deception technology across the Middle East, empowering businesses to detect and stop advanced threats before they escalate.
This collaboration comes as cyberattacks become faster, more automated, and increasingly influenced by AI. Traditional detection tools that rely on reactive alerts and known patterns are no longer sufficient to identify advanced intrusions early. Organizations now need pre-emptive capabilities that can reveal malicious intent at the first sign of a breach. Acalvio’s autonomous deception platform is designed for this shift, using distributed decoys, lures, and high-fidelity telemetry to detect lateral movement, identity abuse, and stealth intrusion with extreme accuracy and minimal false positives.
This approach is especially important as companies begin to integrate Agentic AI systems into their operations. Autonomous agents introduce new behavioral patterns and decision paths that expand the attack surface in ways that are difficult to predict. Deception-based detection provides an important safeguard by revealing anomalous or unintended behavior at an early stage, whether caused by a human attacker or an AI-driven process. This makes deception a foundational layer for organizations preparing for the next era of AI-accelerated threats.
“As attackers move faster and AI reshapes the threat landscape, pre-emptive defense becomes essential. Acalvio’s deception-driven approach enables organizations to detect malicious activity at its earliest stages, long before it becomes a breach. We are proud to offer this capability to our customers across the Middle East.”
– Ilyas Mohammed, AmiViz Chief Operating Officer
AmiViz works closely with Acalvio to support its regional partners and customers with enablement, training, and deployment expertise to help enterprises deploy deception-driven security with confidence. The partnership will focus on key sectors such as government, finance, energy, telecommunications and the large corporate environment.
Ray Kafity, vice president of Middle East, Turkey and Africa at Acalvio Technologies, said the 2026 GigaOm survey ranked Acalvio as a leader in deception technology (for the fourth year in a row), citing Acalvio’s ability to deliver high-fidelity early detection, broad deployment flexibility across hybrid environments, and tight integration with SIEM, SOAR and EDR platforms, all while minimizing false positives. Additionally, Gartner recognized Acalvio as a leader in preemptive cybersecurity solutions that enable powerful mitigation and prevention against AI-coordinated intrusions and cyberattacks.
“We are excited to partner with AmiViz to deliver these advanced deception solutions in the era of agentic AI cyberattacks.”
