edge digital platform Wayn. Congratulating the achievement, he underlined that it represents a major advancement in digital
postal services and reiterated the country's commitment to embracing the latest technologies and smart solutions.

He stated, "More than just a digital postal service, Wayn is a comprehensive security system that utilises the latest identity
verification and encryption technologies. The platform further guarantees the safety of transactions and shields user data from
cyber threats by integrating with the UAE Pass.”

Dr. Al Kuwaiti also emphasised the importance of public-private sector collaboration in strengthening cybersecurity. He
confirmed that accrediting Wayn as a secure digital communication channel contributes to building a safe and reliable digital
environment, supporting the nation’s overall digital transformation goals.

UAE’s strategic objectives in fostering digital transformation, embracing technological innovations that enhance the efficacy of
government work and raise the quality of services offered to people and businesses. The Telecommunications and Digital

Government Regulatory Authority will provide digital enablers and support integration with digital identities, guaranteeing
seamless and safe delivery of services to users.”

developments in technology. The platform reflects our commitment to introducing transformational products to our customers,
in alignment with the UAE’s Zero Government Bureaucracy Programme."

individuals.
