What Credo does

Credo Technology Services LLC is a UAE-headquartered cybersecurity consulting and services firm founded in 2010 in Abu Dhabi by Obaidullah Kazmi, Founder and Chief Trust Officer. The company has expanded from its original Abu Dhabi base into Dubai, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, the United States (Texas and Illinois), Australia, India, and Pakistan, serving enterprise and government clients across the Middle East, Europe, North America, Oceania, and Asia. The firm holds ISO 27001 certification and structures its offerings around three pillars: Secure Services (Data Security, Identity Protection, Cloud Security, and Digital Forensics and Incident Response), Transform Consulting (Cloud Native Security and Gap Analysis), and Insight AI (Data Governance, Advanced Analytics, AI Offerings, AI Forecasting, and Predictive Maintenance).

The company's underlying technology stack is built primarily on partner integrations rather than proprietary products. It integrates with 20+ vendors spanning identity and access management (Ping Identity, Okta, SailPoint, Saviynt), data discovery and governance (BigID), cloud platforms (Microsoft Azure, AWS, Google Cloud), ITSM (ServiceNow), vulnerability management (Tenable), privileged access (BeyondTrust), and a range of other security and analytics tooling (Thales, TrendMicro, Forcepoint, Fortra, HashiCorp, RedHat, AppViewX, Exterro, Power BI). Notably, the firm is the only GCC-based certified HashiCorp partner with active customer references and holds Thales Platinum and Professional Services Partner status for Southern Europe, Middle East, Turkey & Africa.

The business model is services-led with no publicly disclosed pricing. Revenue is generated through cybersecurity consulting, managed security services, implementation of partner technologies, and AI-powered analytics and predictive maintenance engagements. The firm operates a direct enterprise sales model targeting government entities, central banks, and large enterprises, and sells primarily on credentials, certifications (ISO 27001), and regional partnership tiers rather than proprietary technology. Customer concentration leans toward UAE federal entities and GCC government institutions, with no disclosed revenue or named commercial customer logos. The firm remains founder-controlled, with no disclosed external institutional investment, PE backing, or acquisition history.
