Asif Akram is the Sales Director at Tristratus Ltd, where he works closely with organisations to strengthen their security posture and navigate digital transformation with confidence. With a strong focus on practical, risk-aware solutions, Mr Akram helps businesses adopt technology that supports growth without compromising resilience.

"In Malta, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) form the backbone of the economy, yet they face a unique set of challenges in today’s digital landscape," Mr Akram points out. "Many SMEs are under increasing pressure to digitise operations, comply with regulatory requirements, and defend against growing cyber threats, often with limited budgets, lean teams, and a shortage of specialised skills."

Cybersecurity remains one of the most pressing concerns. Maltese SMEs are increasingly targeted by phishing, ransomware, and data breaches, but many still underestimate their exposure or rely on outdated security measures. At the same time, compliance with frameworks such as GDPR places additional strain on smaller organisations that lack in-house expertise.

Mr Akram's role at Tristratus focuses on bridging this gap. He works with SME leaders to demystify security and digital transformation, helping them understand risks in business terms rather than technical jargon. By promoting scalable, cost-effective security strategies, Mr Akram enables SMEs to protect critical data, maintain customer trust, and meet regulatory expectations without slowing innovation.

Beyond technology, Mr Akram recognises that people and processes are just as important. He advocates for building security awareness, embedding resilience into daily operations, and aligning digital initiatives with long-term business goals. For Maltese SMEs looking to grow securely in an increasingly connected world, Asif Akram and Tristratus Ltd provide trusted guidance at a time when confidence and clarity matter most.
