Market Overview

Cybersecurity is the process of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks. Cyberattacks typically modify, access, or destroy sensitive data, extort money from users, or disrupt normal business processes. A few strategies that can be employed to fight cybercrime are application security, network security, disaster recovery/business continuity planning, cloud security, and critical infrastructure security. For military, financial, healthcare, and business cybersecurity is a top priority because they collect, store, and use a lot of private data online. The expansion of cybersecurity is driven by growing awareness of potential financial and reputational damage and digital transformation. To strengthen cyber security defense and successfully counteract cyber-attacks, the South African government has started several projects and programs such as the Cybercrime Center of Excellence (CCoE), the National Cyber Security Advisory Council (NCAC), and the Cyber Security Hub.
