The agreements underscore the Kingdom's growing drive to link Bahraini enterprises with new international markets. Bahrain Chamber, led by its Chairman H.E. Sameer Nass, engaged with several prominent Russian institutions to strengthen cooperation across trade, investment, industry, tourism, and logistics. The forum served as a platform to formalise commercial partnerships and unlock long-term cross-border business opportunities. Chamber Signs Seven MOUs The Chamber signed memorandums of understanding with seven institutions under the Russian Federation: Roscongress Foundation, and regional chambers representing Moscow, Chechnya, Krasnodar, Yakutia, and Lipetsk. Each agreement focuses on exchanging economic and investment data, co-hosting exhibitions and trade delegations, and facilitating sector-specific projects that support SMEs and key sectors looking to expand into new regions.

Kingdom's Payments Core Clears Global Audit
TDT | Manama Bahrain's national payments backbone has passed a sweeping international audit with zero flaws, reinforcing its cyber resilience and operational continuity amid rising regional digital risks. BENEFIT, which powers the Kingdom's real-time transfers, debit card switching, and digital payment infrastructure, has secured recertification for two globally recognised standards: ISO 27001:2022 for information security and ISO 22301:2019 for business continuity. The company cleared both audits without a single non-conformity. Vital Infrastructure This clean result carries weight beyond corporate performance. As the operator behind essential services like Fawri+, Fawri, Fawateer, and network ATM services, BENEFIT forms the digital core of Bahrain's financial system. Any failure in its systems would cascade across banks, retailers, consumers, and government agencies. The recertification confirms BENEFIT's alignment with the newest and most stringent ISO protocols. ISO 27001:2022 in particular demands higher levels of leadership accountability, risk-based thinking, and integration of security governance across operations. These are requirements not all fintechs have successfully met. Leadership Speaks Badran Bukamal, Head of Risk Management and Information Security at BENEFIT, called the audit result a milestone built on years of dedication. 'This accomplishment represents the culmination of years of dedication and hard work by our team, who have once again demonstrated their ability to meet and exceed the highest international standards in cybersecurity and operational sustainability.' He added that BENEFIT is committed to remaining ahead of emerging threats and maintaining uninterrupted services for its partners and clients. 'These accreditations reflect our vision to position BENEFIT as a secure and dependable fintech provider, trusted by both customers and partners.' Setting the Benchmark As Gulf nations accelerate their shift toward digital finance, Bahrain's example offers a model of readiness. With rising pressure on financial infrastructure operators to prove resilience, BENEFIT's flawless audit result gives the Kingdom a reputation edge in cybersecurity and business continuity. The company said it would continue investing in future-proof systems to meet growing demands and protect against disruptions, reinforcing the stability of Bahrain's financial ecosystem.

CAPTAIN'S CORNER : Are you practicing effective "cyber hygiene"?
Every time you do something as innocent as logging into your Instagram or Facebook account, did you know you are inviting a criminal home? The worrying news is that billions of login credentials have been leaked and compiled into datasets online using malicious software, giving criminals 'unprecedented access' to accounts that consumers use each day. Cybersecurity outlet Cybernews says that a total of 16 billion user passwords for a range of popular platforms including Google, Facebook, and Apple have fallen into the wrong hands. Of course, this number includes duplicates and users with multiple accounts. But think about it — 16 billion is roughly double the amount of people on Earth! Against this alarming headline, experts continue to stress the importance of maintaining proper cyber hygiene. Just like we followed anti-virus protocols during the pandemic years — washing hands, wearing face masks, and avoiding crowds — we now need to follow simple steps to shield ourselves from cybercriminals. The first thing is to change your password at least every month. Avoid using the same or similar login credentials on multiple sites. Do not share your password, even with your best friend. If your excuse is forgetfulness, consider using a passkey or password manager. As a second protective layer, add multifactor authentication through your phone, email, or a USB authenticator key. Be cautious about clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown or suspicious sources, as they may be phishing attempts. Keep your software and operating systems up to date to patch security vulnerabilities. Finally, when checking into the internet from your friendly local coffee shop or busy airport — which is a public Wi-Fi network — use a VPN to encrypt your internet traffic and protect your data from potential eavesdropping. Update your software regularly and back up your files onto an external drive. In today's world, we cannot avoid online business — shopping, banking, and communication. Call me old-fashioned if you will, but the best protection is to always use common sense. If a deal being offered sounds too good to be true — it probably is! No business, whether bank or government, will ask for bank details or personal data like CPR number over the phone. If you have not entered a lucky draw, don't expect to win the bumper prize over the phone!
