Under the MoU, Beyon Cyber and Haven will form a strategic partnership to revolutionize cyber security operations through the launch of advanced AI-driven Security Operations Centers (AI SOCs) in the United Kingdom and worldwide.
As part of this collaboration, Haven will integrate Beyon Cyber’s cutting-edge AI SOC platform, Orryx AI, into its operations; harnessing the power of smart automation and agentic AI workflows to enhance threat detection, investigation, hunting, intelligence, and response.
This partnership will enable both organizations to deliver faster, smarter, and more comprehensive defense services to customers globally, setting a new benchmark for next-generation cyber security resilience and operational excellence.
Orryx AI delivers proactive, autonomous defense that outpaces traditional human-only SOCs; cutting through noise, reducing analyst fatigue, and improving accuracy, response speed, and cost efficiency against increasingly AI-driven threats. What sets Orryx apart from other AI SOCs is its use of specialized security data, curated intelligence feeds, and built-in SOC workflows, enabling customers to achieve comprehensive, intelligent, and adaptive defense capabilities.
Dr. Khalid Al Khalifa, CEO of Beyon Cyber, commented:
“Partnering with Haven allows us to bring Orryx AI into a truly global MSSP ecosystem, extending its capabilities to hundreds of organizations worldwide. We’re excited by the immense opportunity to transform how organizations protect themselves; using automation, intelligence, and speed to stay ahead of increasingly AI-powered threats. This partnership also shows how regional innovation can set new global standards in AI-driven cyber security.”
Arno Robbertse, CEO of Haven, added:
“Integrating Orryx AI into our SOC alongside Microsoft Copilot will strengthen our SOC’s AI capabilities. It will enable us to provide our customers with speed and early warning while reducing cost; raising the bar for detection, triage, and response across all industries we serve.”
As enterprises face more sophisticated attacks and mounting compliance demands, this deployment sets a new benchmark for managed security by delivering AI-driven resilience, greater operational efficiency, and continuous protection against evolving threats.

Beyon Cyber and Haven Sign MoU
Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills joined the Chicago Bears and Los Angeles Rams in advancing to the divisional round of the NFL playoffs.
Allen led the Bills to a 27-24 comeback victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the first of three wild-card playoff games on Sunday.
The San Francisco 49ers (12-5) took on the Philadelphia Eagles (11-6) in the middle game and the New England Patriots (14-3) will host the Los Angeles Chargers (11-6) in the nightcap.
Allen scored on a 1-yard run late in the fourth quarter and Cole Bishop intercepted Trevor Lawrence's pass to secure Buffalo's first playoff win on the road since the 1992 AFC championship game at Miami.
The No. 6 seed Bills will wait to find out their next opponent. It's the sixth straight season under coach Sean McDermott that Buffalo has reached the second round of the playoffs.
On Saturday, the NFL playoffs kicked off with two wacky games.
The Bears (12-6) trailed the Green Bay Packers 21-3 at halftime and 27-16 with just under seven minutes left in the fourth quarter before Caleb Williams threw a pair of touchdown passes. His 25-yard TD toss to D.J. Moore put Chicago ahead 31-27 with 1:43 remaining. Then Jordan Love's desperation heave into the end zone from the Bears 28 was knocked down as time expired to secure Chicago's first playoff win since the 2010 season.
Williams finished with 361 yards passing, two TDs and two interceptions for the No. 2 seed Bears, who will host the Rams (13-5) or Eagles next weekend.
In the opener on wild-card weekend, Matthew Stafford threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Colby Parkinson in the final minute and the Rams rallied to beat the Carolina Panthers 34-31 in a game that was much closer than expected.
The Rams were double-digit favorites on BetMGM Sportsbook against the Panthers (8-10). The Rams jumped to a 14-0 lead, but couldn’t take advantage of first-half turnovers and allowed Carolina to get within 17-14 at halftime.
Stafford, who earned All-Pro honors for the first time in his 17-year career on Saturday, threw for 304 yards, three TDs and had one pick. Puka Nacua, who was a unanimous All-Pro selection, had 10 catches for 111 yards and one TD and also had a 5-yard TD run.
The Rams are back in the divisional round for the second straight season. Last year, they were 13 yards away from eliminating Philadelphia before a sack and an incomplete pass ended their season with a 28-22 loss.
No. 5 seed Los Angeles will face No. 1 seed Seattle if the Eagles lose to the 49ers.
Bryce Young’s 7-yard TD pass to Jalen Coker put the Panthers ahead 31-27 with 2:43 remaining but Stafford drove the Rams 71 yards in two minutes. Parkinson made an outstanding, tightrope catch for the winning score and the defense held.
Behind coach Dave Canales and improved QB Bryce Young, the Panthers have reason to be optimistic about the future after winning a weak NFC South and nearly pulling off a major upset.
The Packers (9-8-1) finished the season with five straight losses. They were 9-3-1 before All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons tore his ACL in a loss to Denver on Dec. 14.
On Monday night, Mike Tomlin, Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-7) host DeMeco Ryans, C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans (12-5).
The Denver Broncos (14-3) are the AFC’s No. 1 seed and the Seahawks (14-3) got the top seed in the NFC. Each team earned a bye and will host the lowest remaining seed next weekend.
