Member benefit programme for UAE chambers of commerce

Your members keep asking about cyber risk. We will answer them, and the chamber pays nothing.

A member session your staff do not have to prepare, five full assessments given free to member businesses the chamber selects on criteria it publishes, a three-minute test any member can take today, and a monthly rundown of what actually happened, written for people who run companies rather than security teams. We deliver all of it. The chamber permits its name on the programme and includes one paragraph in a communication it was already sending. A royalty on paid work arrives monthly under a trademark licence, and nobody in the building has to chase anything for it.

The offer, in full

What the chamber gets, and what every member gets.

The chamber

A member session we prepare and deliver

Forty-five minutes, in English or Arabic, on what actually goes wrong in a company of that size and the handful of moves that change the ending. An engineer presents. There is no pitch from the stage, because a chamber audience can smell one from the back row.

Five complimentary assessments for members you select

Our full Cybersecurity and Data Protection Assessment, delivered free to five member businesses. The chamber nominates against criteria it publishes, AccuSights makes the final selection and does every part of the work, and each business keeps a written plan at the end.

Revenue that arrives without staff time

A monthly royalty on what we actually collect from members who come through the chamber’s own link, with a statement showing every line behind it. Nothing is owed on the complimentary work, and no target has to be met for the royalty to be paid.

A benefit the whole roster can use

The free three-minute test and the monthly rundown are open to every member on any day, so the benefit is real for the roster and not only for the five who receive an assessment. That is the version a membership team can talk about on a renewal call.

Someone else to call when something goes wrong

A named person at AccuSights, a direct line and a written escalation path, published on the member page. Chambers worry about the member complaint more than they want the revenue, so our name and our number are on it.

Every member

The three-minute test, free

Twelve questions, one tap each, a score at the end and the two or three gaps that matter most for a company that size. No cost and no obligation, on any day.

The monthly rundown

What happened last month, what it means for a business here, and the single control that answers it. Gulf context included, and it takes three minutes to read.

The member session and the recording

Whether they reach the room or not.

A published member rate on anything paid

Written on the page, better than our public fee, and stated so a member can check it. A benefit that is no better than what a member could arrange alone damages the chamber, so we put the difference in writing.

The complimentary work

Five assessments and a quarter of the read-only compliance agent, allocated on merit.

This is the part the chamber gets to announce. Five member businesses receive the same assessment our paying clients receive, at no cost, and then a complimentary first quarter of the read-only compliance agent so they can see the picture stay current before deciding anything. Nothing is owed to the chamber on any of it, and nobody has to buy anything to be considered.

Five Cybersecurity and Data Protection Assessments

An engineer looks from the inside at what the business owns, what it holds and how it would be attacked, scored against the CIS Controls v8.1 Implementation Group 1. Two to three weeks. It ends in a score, the top gaps in plain language, and quick wins separated from projects.

Compliance readiness scoping

Which regulators and frameworks actually reach that business, drawn only from what those bodies have published, with a link and a verification date on each source. One control set that carries the requirements instead of a separate project for each rulebook.

A complimentary quarter of the read-only compliance agent

It connects with read-only access the business grants in writing, gathers control and evidence status, and changes nothing. It does not remediate and it does not act on anyone’s behalf. Three months, then it stops on its own unless the owner asks for more.

A limited number of complimentary assessments, allocated on the stated criteria. Nothing here is decided by chance and no selection is random. No purchase, payment, membership upgrade or attendance is required to be considered.

The regulator has the final say. We help interpret, scope and get you ready; we do not certify.

The chamber nominates. We select against the published criteria. Nothing is left to luck.

1The chamber publishes its criteria

Yours, not ours. The suggested set below is a starting point, and every chamber we have spoken to has changed at least one line of it.

2Members are nominated

By chamber staff, by a board member, by another member, or by the business itself on the nomination form. One page, about three minutes.

3We select and we deliver

AccuSights makes the final selection against the published criteria, schedules the work, does it, writes it up and answers every question that follows. The chamber is told who was selected and why, and never has to defend the decision.

The criteria we suggest, which the chamber is free to replace

A member in good standing on the date of nomination.
Between 5 and 250 employees, because that is the band where an assessment changes the most and gets bought the least.
Holds something worth stealing: patient records, card data, client financial records, or the personal data of its customers.
Has not had a formal security assessment in the last 24 months.
Can give an owner or a manager roughly two hours across three weeks. Without that the work is not worth doing.
Preference to a business that would struggle to fund an assessment on its own, which is the whole reason for giving it away.

No purchase, payment, membership upgrade or attendance is required to be nominated or selected. The chamber may add, remove or replace any criterion, and whatever it publishes is what we select against.

What we are asking for, and what we are not

The chambers here have spent years building the support system small companies actually use, and we are asking to support that work rather than to be endorsed by it.

Look at what the chambers already publish. Dubai Chamber of Commerce runs a programme partners page where banks, telecom operators and professional firms carry member-facing offers, and one of those partners promises preferential rates plus a limited number of complimentary advisory sessions. Abu Dhabi Chamber launched its Members Privileges initiative in May 2026 with five partners and printed an open invitation for more, naming technology and digital transformation companies among the categories it wants. Sharjah Chamber runs Sectoral Business Groups and a training centre where a session like ours belongs. None of that is our achievement. It is a structure built patiently by people whose job is to make a smaller company’s year easier, and the honest thing a vendor can do is fit inside it without asking for anything it does not need.

We ask to be described as a member benefit programme and a programme partner. Never endorsed, recommended, vetted, approved or certified by the chamber.
We ask for a licence to use the chamber name and mark for the limited purpose of identifying the programme, with the chamber approving anything before it is published.
We ask to be included once in a member communication the chamber was already sending, in a described paragraph with one link.
We do not ask for the member list, for a segment of it, or for permission to write to members directly. Not now and not later.
We do not ask for a referral target, a minimum number of introductions, a marketing commitment or exclusivity in the category.

The money, honestly

It is a royalty under a trademark licence. It is not a commission and it is not a referral fee.

The chamber licenses its name and mark to AccuSights so members can recognise the programme as theirs. The payment is what we owe for that licence. It is a percentage of the revenue we actually collect from members who enrol through the chamber’s own unique link, it is paid monthly, and a statement shows every line behind it.

The structure matters more than the word. Every operational task is ours: the page, the link, the scheduling, the delivery, the support, the reporting and the complaints. The chamber permits the mark and permits one paragraph in a communication it was already publishing. That is the whole of the chamber’s side, and it is deliberately that small.

Nothing is owed on the complimentary assessments, on the complimentary quarter of the compliance agent, on the free test or on the session. The royalty is payable only on what a member actually pays us, and it is payable whether or not that member was ever nominated.

Never calledCommission, referral fee, finder’s fee, per-lead or per-sale bounty.Never conditioned onA referral target, a minimum number of introductions, a number of emails sent, or exclusivity in the category.Never involvesThe member list, a segment of it, or any message from us to a member using data the chamber holds.AlwaysNon-exclusive on both sides, terminable by either side on 30 days’ notice for any reason, with all use of the mark ceasing on termination.

The rate is the one number that is not on this page, because it is set with each chamber in the first conversation and written into the licence. Ask for it on the call and you will have it in fifteen minutes.

We never write to your members. The chamber communicates with its own members through its own channels, which is what UAE consent practice expects of us and also what keeps the licence clean.
Allocation on published criteria is not a prize promotion. Anything shaped like a draw needs a permit from the relevant Department of Economic Development before it runs, and we will not put a chamber’s name anywhere near an unpermitted promotion.
How the chamber records this income is a matter for its own legal and finance teams. We send the structure and the reasoning in writing and then stay out of it, and we will never tell a chamber what its tax position is.

Material connection disclosure

The chamber receives a royalty from AccuSights when a member becomes a paying customer through this page. Complimentary assessments are allocated on the published criteria above, never by chance, and nothing is owed to the chamber on them. The chamber has not evaluated, endorsed, certified or approved AccuSights or its services, and nothing here should be read as saying it has. We disclose this to the standard set by the FTC Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, 16 CFR 255.5, because it is the clearest published standard we know of and our members deserve the same clarity on both sides of the world.

What chamber staff actually ask

What does this cost the chamber?

Nothing. There is no fee, no minimum, no sponsorship to buy and no budget line to open. The complimentary assessments, the session, the free test and the rundown are paid for by us. If a chamber ever has to spend money to run this, we have designed it wrong.

What do we actually have to do?

Three things, and none of them touch delivery. Permit the use of your name and mark for the programme. Include one described paragraph and one link in a member communication you were already sending. Nominate members for the complimentary assessments if you want to, which is optional. Everything else is ours.

We already have a technology partner. Does this conflict?

Usually not, and you should ask us early so we can answer honestly. Most chamber technology partners sell connectivity, hardware, payments or insurance. We assess, we scope compliance readiness and we run a read-only agent that keeps the picture current, so we sit beside those rather than on top of them. If your existing partner does the same work we do, say so on the call and we will tell you it conflicts rather than let you discover it later.

Is this exclusive?

No, and we would decline exclusivity if it were offered. It is bad for your members, it narrows what you can add next year, and it is one of the things that turns a clean licence into an argument. You stay free to add another security partner tomorrow.

How are members selected for the complimentary assessments?

You publish the criteria, members are nominated, and AccuSights makes the final selection against those published criteria and delivers everything. It is merit, not luck. Nothing is random, which keeps the programme outside promotion and prize rules and keeps the chamber out of a permit application it never wanted to file.

How and when are we paid, and what is the payment called?

It is a royalty under a trademark licence, paid monthly on the revenue we actually collected from members who came through your link, with a statement listing every line. It is never structured or described as a commission or a referral fee, and nothing is owed on the complimentary work. How your chamber records the income is a question for your own legal and finance teams, and we send them the structure rather than an opinion.

What if a member complains?

They call us, not you. The member page publishes a named person, a direct line and a written escalation path with our response times on it. If a member does come to you first, forward the message and we will have picked it up the same working day. This is the part chambers care about most and the part most vendors leave blank.

Can we cancel?

Thirty days’ notice, in writing, for any reason or none. Every use of your name and mark stops when the notice period ends, the page comes down, and any royalty already earned is still paid. There is no term to run out and nothing to settle on the way out.

Do you get our member list?

No. Not the list, not a segment of it, not an export, and no permission to contact your members using anything the chamber holds. You communicate with your members through your own channels. That is how it should work, it is what UAE consent practice expects, and it happens to be what keeps the licence clean.

Can we say the chamber endorses AccuSights?

Please do not, and we will not ask you to. An organisation that says it endorses something needs to have reached that view through a process it can describe, and a chamber has adopted no cybersecurity standards. Member benefit, member offer and programme partner are accurate, defensible and enough.

Who is behind this

A security architect who spent more than two decades inside the institutions that spend the most in the world on security, and a physician trained in medicine and surgery who watched a breach empty an emergency department.

They started AccuSights after businesses in the founder’s own family were breached, one of them losing a payroll, with no reasonable way at their size to buy what the large institutions buy.

That is why the product is small on purpose: the controls that actually stop attacks, in plain language, at a fixed fee scoped in one call, with a named human on the other end.

How to start

Three steps, and the first one is thirty minutes.

1Thirty minutes with a founder

Not a salesperson and not a partnerships coordinator. You will hear the rate, the licence terms and what the first session looks like, and you can say no at the end without anyone chasing you.

2We send two pages and a draft

The programme outline your board or your director can read in four minutes, and the trademark licence and royalty agreement, drafted so your counsel has something to mark up rather than something to write.

3We build the page, you add a paragraph

Your members get a page with your name on it, your link and the nomination form. You add one described paragraph and one link to a communication you were already sending. Nothing else changes in your building.

Two ways to start, and both are short.

Book thirty minutes with a founder, or leave your details and the two-page programme outline reaches you within one business day, in English or Arabic.
