Africa’s Cybersecurity Challenge Is Bigger Than Access to Technology
Brief
Gopan Sivasankaran is Rapid7's Regional Director, Middle East & Africa.
Across Egypt, Nigeria, South Africa, and Kenya, organizations are expanding their use of cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence, digital services, and connected operations. But more technology does not automatically create stronger security operations; many security teams are not short on data, but rather on time, context, and specialist capacity.
As environments expand, the challenge is no longer finding another security product. It is turning existing technology and new investments into clearer risk decisions, faster investigations, and more consistent response, which requires more than software.
