Andersen Consulting Boosts Cloud and Cybersecurity Reach with Dubai-Based VaporVM Collaboration

Andersen Consulting is deepening its global technology capabilities through a new collaboration with VaporVM, a Dubai-headquartered cloud-native firm specializing in digital transformation, DevOps, cybersecurity, and data science. The partnership expands Andersen’s ability to help enterprise clients modernize infrastructure, secure data, and accelerate transformation across industries and regions.

Founded in 2017, VaporVM has built a reputation for helping Fortune 500 companies optimize IT operations through automation, scalability, and cloud integration. Its end-to-end services—from cloud migration and application modernization to cyber resilience and AI-driven insights—fit neatly into Andersen’s growing portfolio of digital consulting solutions.

“At VaporVM, we’re dedicated to helping businesses not just adopt new technologies but reimagine what’s possible with them,” said Aqeel Asim, CEO and founder of VaporVM. “Our collaboration with Andersen Consulting amplifies that mission globally, bringing our cloud and cybersecurity expertise to new markets.”

Expanding a Global Digital Platform

For Andersen, the addition of VaporVM strengthens its global consulting network at a time when enterprises are under pressure to modernize securely and efficiently. The firm has been steadily expanding its technology and AI transformation practices, aligning them with its broader advisory, tax, and legal ecosystem through Andersen Global’s 600-plus locations and 44,000 professionals worldwide.

“In today’s climate, responsiveness and security go hand in hand,” said Mark L. Vorsatz, global chairman and CEO of Andersen. “VaporVM’s track record across cybersecurity and digital transformation makes them a valuable extension of our platform. They bring innovation and focus to today’s most pressing digital infrastructure challenges.”

By integrating VaporVM’s capabilities, Andersen can deliver a faster, more secure digital transformation journey for clients navigating hybrid and multi-cloud environments—an increasingly complex task amid the rise of AI workloads, remote operations, and escalating cyber threats.

Strategic Context: Cloud Meets Compliance

The move comes as consulting firms across the globe are doubling down on cloud-native and cybersecurity capabilities to compete with tech-driven giants like Accenture, Deloitte, and PwC. What distinguishes Andersen’s approach is its multidisciplinary model, combining strategic, operational, and legal expertise—positioning it as a trusted advisor in regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, and energy.

VaporVM’s regional presence in the Middle East, a rapidly growing hub for digital transformation investment, also gives Andersen a stronger foothold in emerging markets where demand for secure digital acceleration is surging.

Why It Matters

The Andersen–VaporVM collaboration underscores a broader trend reshaping the consulting landscape: clients no longer want fragmented transformation projects—they want integrated, scalable, and secure digital ecosystems. With VaporVM’s technical depth and Andersen’s global scale, this partnership aims to deliver exactly that.

As enterprises face mounting cybersecurity risks and pressure to innovate faster, Andersen’s expanded digital bench could prove a timely—and strategic—advantage.
