Cyber Saber Hackathon boosts skills of Saudi students

Cyber Saber Hackathon will continue to support Saudi talent in achieving new heights in the cybersecurity industry through hands-on application of several cyber-attack and defense tactics, said Samer Omar, CEO of VirtuPort’s 7th MENA Information Security Conference 2019.

He added that the hackathon, sponsored by Integrated Telecom Company (ITC), will be held on Sept. 9-10.

Ghassan Itani, CEO of ITC, said: “Cybersecurity remains one of the critical elements in ensuring a successful digital economy. ITC’s sponsorship of the Cyber Saber Hackathon is one of our initiatives to invest in corporate social responsibility in line with Vision 2030, where our youth will play a critical role in the future of defending and protecting our company and the overall digital asset.”

The hackathon is characterized by its ability to provide a holistic simulation environment that will allow contestants to experience real-world hacking and breach scenarios of vital sectors including financial sectors, airports, oil and gas industry among others. The students will get to interact with it through their computers.

What distinguishes the hackathon’s model smart city is that the students will experience and witness the implications of cyberattacks and the importance of equipping themselves with the right knowledge to face the attackers.

The organizers of the hackathon said the competition has been designed to prepare the contestants for the challenges they will face in protecting the organizations they will work for.

The third edition of the hackathon is considered to be one of the most important competitions in the region. In the last two editions, more than 20 Saudi private and public universities participated.

Cadbury Dairy Milk goes 'Irresistible'


Cadbury Dairy Milk is inviting chocolate lovers to discover something new with the launch of Irresistible — a range created to make every bite feel special, elevated and multi-sensory.

The Irresistible range adds generous, indulgent fillings that bring depth, texture, and warmth to every moment. It’s indulgence redefined. A little extra joy. And a reminder that great chocolate should always feel like a treat.

Irresistible Nutty Cream: Simple. Rich. Completely satisfying. Beneath the classic Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate is a smooth, nutty cream filling that melts beautifully before revealing a gentle crunch. The result is a perfectly balanced bite—creamy, comforting, and quietly indulgent.

Irresistible Sticky Toffee: Inspired by beloved dessert flavors, this variant wraps smooth Dairy Milk chocolate around layers of caramel-flavored crème, soft caramel, and salted toffee pieces. Chewy and deeply comforting, it’s designed to be enjoyed slowly—or shared in moments that matter. 

Available in slices and minis, it brings a little indulgence to any time of day.

Lisa Roberts, head of marketing for the Gulf, Saudi Arabia and developing markets at Mondelez said: “This launch reflects our passion for innovation and our commitment to creating the best experiences for our consumers. With the Irresistible range, we’ve brought together a unique multi-layer, multi-sensory proposition for a more indulgent experience, inviting you to enjoy moments of goodness.”

Every detail of the Irresistible range has been thoughtfully created to deliver a richer chocolate experience. From the generous fillings to the satisfying textures, it’s chocolate made to be savored—not rushed.

With Irresistible, Cadbury Dairy Milk continues to evolve, bringing new ideas to a much-loved classic while staying true to what makes it special. It’s a celebration of flavor, comfort, and the simple pleasure of a great piece of chocolate.

The Cadbury Dairy Milk Irresistible range is now available across the Gulf states.
