Islamic coalition launches digital transformation initiatives

Maj. Gen. Mohammed bin Saeed Al-Moghedi, secretary-general of the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition, has launched the secure digital transformation plan and the unified digital platform at the organization’s headquarters in Riyadh.

The initiatives focus on secure and protected digital automation in cyberspace. The coalition’s IT department has said that secure digital transformation includes the application of innovative procedures and policies designed to protect sensitive data and information from cyber threats.

These procedures and policies include the development of data protection and encryption systems, in addition to training employees on digital security and raising awareness of cyber risks.

The department added that the unified digital platform is considered a technical infrastructure as it aims to provide a unified system for various digital services. It allows the integration of data and information from various sources and provides users with a unified interface to access diverse digital services, including e-government and logistical, technical, and administrative services, among others.

The platform makes it easier for people to access and interact with digital services while also increasing their effectiveness, lowering costs and improving the interaction and communication between users and service providers.

Al-Moghedi said that the plan and the platform came as part of an initiative aimed at promoting digital transformation at the coalition’s headquarters.

He added that the focus was also on the promotion of safe and effective use of digital technology and the improvement of integration among different digital systems and services.
