Deloitte Morocco Cyber Center joins forces with Yogosha to expand cybersecurity offering

Deloitte Morocco Cyber Center, a center of expertise and excellence in cybersecurity, has teamed up with Yogosha, an offensive security platform, to expand its cybersecurity offering.

This multi-faceted partnership aims to offer the Moroccan and African markets the combination of Yogosha’s “Offensive Security” solutions and Deloitte’s Offensive Security Center.

Using realistic approaches, targeting the business needs of each organization and simulating real attack scenarios, this partnership aims to make Cyber vulnerability and vulnerability detection solutions accessible.

In concrete terms, this new Yogosha by Deloitte offering enables a community of certified “ethical hackers” to detect Cyber vulnerabilities in the information systems of Moroccan and African customers.

Different levels of technical testing are offered to meet the security objectives and asset maturity of organizations, with reports on detected vulnerabilities, accelerated remediation by Deloitte experts, re-testing and insight into operations with real-time analysis on the Yogosha platform and, finally, 24/7 coverage via Deloitte’s Detection and Response center in Casablanca.

“The integration of this solution into our portfolio of services in Offensive and Defensive Security enhances our technical offering, and will enable our Moroccan and African customers to assess their security pragmatically and according to a more appropriate economic equation. The sovereignty aspect is not forgotten: the platform will initially be hosted within our Casablanca infrastructures at the Deloitte Morocco Cyber Center, before migrating over the next few months to the facilities of our partner UM6P, through the company ACS”, explains Imade Elbaraka, Managing Partner at Deloitte for Cybersecurity consulting activities in France and French-speaking Africa, and President of the Deloitte Morocco Cyber Center.

The new offering will be structured around four services. Firstly, “Pentest as a Service”, which involves deploying a small team of qualified security researchers to audit and test organizations’ assets, on a one-off or repeated basis. In this formula, test coverage is guaranteed at a fixed cost.

Then there’s the VDP service, which enables any organization to submit a potential vulnerability, in complete security and in compliance with the disclosure program’s instructions. The “Bug Bounty” service, meanwhile, is deployed via a large team of security researchers to continuously test customer assets.

Finally, the so-called special operations service is tailor-made to suit requirements, and includes Red Teaming, Threat Intelligence, Hardware Pentesting, Social Engineering, Digital Forensics and CTFs.

Deloitte’s Offensive Security Center is designed to be both a hub for identifying, managing and remediating the vulnerabilities of organizations’ assets, and a platform for federating the Cyber community and supporting the upskilling and structuring of its action.

“This partnership will enable us to extend our scope of action to the African continent, particularly Morocco, one of the leading countries in the region, but also to build up, on our own scale, a reliable community of local, Moroccan and African researchers. In addition, it is a great privilege to include our solution in the portfolio of the Deloitte Morocco Cyber Center, which is the most significant center in Africa. We hope that our joint action, combined with that of the local ecosystem, will enable African experts to increase their skills in the structuring themes of Offensive Security and the auditing of sensitive systems”, explains Yassir Kazar, Founder and CEO of Yogosha.
