RUX Software acquires CBSi, strengthening oilfield services offerings

RUX Software, which provides software for industrial equipment and field service companies, has acquired CBSi (Computer Business Solutions Inc.), a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partner. 

The deal expands RUX’s business in the oilfield services industry and adds CBSi’s team to the company, according to the companies.

For decades, CBSi has provided software to distributors, industrial manufacturers, and field service companies. The company developed ofsERP, a Microsoft-certified extension for D365BC designed for oilfield services and construction companies, the companies said.

The software helps businesses manage equipment, field service operations, rentals, inspections, maintenance, and transportation in one place, the companies noted.

"We are thrilled to grow our footprint in the oilfield services space and to welcome CBSi's customers into the RUX family," said Natalie Lemke, CEO of RUX. "Their client relationships reflect exactly the kind of long-term trust we aim to build with every business we serve."

Dubai Electronic Security Center and Microsoft give Dubai government a real-time view of its cybersecurity posture

The Dubai Electronic Security Center (DESC) and Microsoft have teamed up to help improve cybersecurity across Dubai Government organizations. 

The collaboration builds on Microsoft’s existing work with DESC. Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 have already met DESC’s security standards for cloud service providers. Microsoft also operates cloud data centers in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, according to the organizations.

As part of the project, DESC and Microsoft developed a Zero Trust security dashboard that gives DESC an up-to-date view of how well government organizations are protecting their systems. Previously, DESC relied on periodic assessments that only showed security conditions at a particular point in time, the organizations noted.

The new dashboard continuously tracks how organizations are meeting Dubai’s Information Security Regulation (ISR) requirements. It also helps IT teams identify security gaps and shows them what they need to do to address them.
