Cyber ResilienceSecurity awareness is often treated as a compliance requirement. In reality, it is one of the most critical foundations of operational resilience, especially in environments where safety, continuity, and trust are non-negotiable.
On February 3, 2026, DTS Solution and Complyan participated in the DAEP 2026 Annual Security Awareness Campaign, hosted at Dar Offices within Al Maktoum International Airport (AMIA). The campaign brought together teams and stakeholders to focus on one essential question. How do organizations turn security awareness into everyday practice rather than a once-a-year exercise.
Why security awareness still matters
Across industries, many organizations invest heavily in controls, tools, and frameworks. Yet breaches and incidents often stem from human decisions, unclear responsibilities, or a lack of practical understanding. Awareness programs fail when they remain theoretical or disconnected from how people actually work.
The DAEP campaign addressed this gap directly. The focus was not on fear-based messaging or generic do’s and don’ts. Instead, discussions centered on how awareness connects to governance, risk ownership, and compliance accountability.
In complex operational environments like aviation, security awareness must support business continuity rather than disrupt it. Employees need clarity on what is expected of them, how risks escalate, and where responsibility sits.

The role of governance and automation
During the campaign, conversations highlighted the growing need for structured, repeatable approaches to managing awareness at scale. As organizations grow, manual tracking and fragmented processes introduce blind spots.
Platforms like Complyan address this challenge by helping organizations map awareness initiatives to controls, policies, and regulatory obligations. This creates visibility into who is accountable, what evidence exists, and where improvement is needed. When awareness is treated as part of a broader GRC program, it becomes sustainable rather than reactive.
DTS Solution’s role in these discussions focused on practical implementation. Bridging strategy and execution is often the hardest part. Awareness programs succeed when they are designed with the organization’s operational reality in mind, not copied from templates.
Looking ahead
Security awareness will continue to evolve, but its core objective remains the same. Enabling people to make informed decisions that protect the organization.
The DAEP 2026 campaign reinforced that awareness is most effective when it is practical, aligned with governance, and supported by the right tools and expertise. DTS Solution and Complyan were proud to contribute to these conversations and to support initiatives that strengthen security culture where it matters most.
