About A9 Advisory

A professional services firm headquartered in the UAE, with a branch in India, bringing cyber security, GRC, technology and chartered accountancy specialists together.

Security, regulation, technology and finance problems rarely arrive separately. A new system needs securing, a regulation changes both controls and tax, an audit finding touches all three.

We built A9 Advisory so one firm can see the whole picture and take responsibility for the outcome. Our specialists have worked with UAE government entities and private sector organisations across the region for more than 15 years.

We also build our own products, including Arbor GRC, so our advice reflects how programmes really run day to day.
