Ahmed Al Saleh

Head of Digital and OT Cybersecurity Initiatives

Ahmed Al Saleh is Head of Digital and OT Cybersecurity Initiatives at Saudi Aramco. His position sits where two once-separate worlds meet: the control systems that run fields, refineries and plants, and the digital transformation programmes that connect those systems to analytics, cloud and predictive maintenance. Every new connection opens a path to value and a path to risk at once, so the initiatives he leads are built on securing that meeting rather than preventing it. Aramco is among the largest operational environments in the world by asset base and geographic spread, and the controls applied there become a reference that facilities across the region follow.
