Presented by Fortinet, a global leader in cybersecurity driving the convergence of networking and security, the award recognizes partners that demonstrate exceptional expertise in designing, deploying, and supporting Security Fabric architectures while delivering measurable value to customers through innovation, technical excellence, and strategic collaboration.
Receiving the Fortinet Fabric Partner of the Year – Africa 2022 award represents one of the most significant milestones in GTS Holding’s history.
Receiving the Fortinet Fabric Partner of the Year – Africa 2022 award represents one of the most significant milestones in GTS Holding’s history. Unlike country-specific recognitions, this award acknowledges the company’s achievements across the African region, placing GTS Holding among Fortinet’s top-performing partners on the continent and highlighting its ability to deliver enterprise-grade cybersecurity solutions that meet international standards.
As organizations across Africa continue accelerating digital transformation, cybersecurity has become an essential foundation for sustainable business growth. Cloud adoption, hybrid work, digital banking, e-government initiatives, industrial automation, and connected infrastructure have created unprecedented opportunities for innovation. At the same time, these developments have expanded the cyber threat landscape, making integrated security more important than ever.
Traditional cybersecurity strategies built around isolated products are no longer sufficient to protect today’s distributed enterprise environments.
Organizations require security architectures that provide centralized visibility, intelligent automation, consistent policy enforcement, and coordinated threat response across networks, cloud platforms, endpoints, applications, identities, and operational technology.
The Fortinet Security Fabric was developed to address exactly these challenges.
By integrating multiple cybersecurity technologies into a unified platform, the Security Fabric enables organizations to simplify operations, improve visibility, automate security workflows, and respond more effectively to emerging threats.
Recognizing the strategic value of this approach, GTS Holding invested early in developing deep expertise around Security Fabric architecture and implementation.
Working closely with Fortinet, the company has helped organizations design cybersecurity ecosystems that integrate next-generation firewalls, Secure SD-WAN, endpoint protection, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), cloud security, Security Operations (SecOps), secure switching, wireless networking, identity management, and centralized analytics into cohesive, intelligent security environments.

Rather than deploying individual technologies independently, GTS Holding focuses on building integrated platforms that enable every security component to communicate, share intelligence, and respond collaboratively to evolving cyber threats.
This architectural approach strengthens protection while reducing operational complexity and improving overall security efficiency.
Commenting on the achievement, Eng. Ayman Al Sayed, Managing Director of GTS Holding, said:
“Being named Fortinet Fabric Partner of the Year – Africa 2022 is an exceptional honor that reflects the dedication of our entire organization and the trust placed in us by both Fortinet and our customers. This recognition demonstrates our commitment to delivering integrated cybersecurity solutions that combine innovation, technical excellence, and measurable business value. We are proud to represent Egypt on a continental stage and remain committed to helping organizations across Africa build secure and resilient digital infrastructures.”
One of the defining characteristics of GTS Holding’s success has been its consultative approach to cybersecurity.
Every customer engagement begins with understanding business objectives, regulatory requirements, operational priorities, and long-term technology strategies before recommending any technical solution. This ensures that cybersecurity investments directly support business resilience, compliance, operational efficiency, and future scalability.
Through this methodology, GTS Holding has successfully delivered integrated cybersecurity solutions across banking, government, healthcare, telecommunications, manufacturing, education, hospitality, energy, and critical infrastructure sectors.
The company’s commitment to continuous technical development has also played a significant role in earning this recognition.
GTS Holding consistently invests in advanced Fortinet certifications, engineering specialization, professional development, and collaborative technical initiatives that enable its teams to remain at the forefront of emerging cybersecurity technologies.
This expertise allows customers to benefit from globally recognized best practices delivered by highly qualified professionals with extensive regional implementation experience.
Mohamed Mady, Technical Director at GTS Holding, emphasized the importance of integrated cybersecurity.
“Cybersecurity is most effective when every component works together as part of a unified architecture. The Fortinet Security Fabric enables organizations to gain comprehensive visibility, automate security operations, and improve their ability to respond to evolving threats. Receiving the Fortinet Fabric Partner of the Year – Africa 2022 award reflects our engineering expertise and our commitment to helping customers build security environments that are both resilient and future-ready.”
Beyond implementation, GTS Holding remains committed to supporting customers throughout every stage of their cybersecurity journey. Assessment, architecture design, deployment, optimization, managed services, technical advisory, and continuous improvement initiatives ensure that organizations maximize the long-term value of their technology investments.
This customer-first philosophy has enabled GTS Holding to establish lasting partnerships built on trust, transparency, and consistent delivery.
