Cybersecurity: Securing Africa’s Businesses will be held on 11 September 2019 in Eversheds Sutherland, London, focusing on Africa’s growing cyber infrastructure and cybersecurity issues
Hosted by Invest Africa, the event is all set to provide a platform to connect industry leaders, tech experts and businesses on the cutting-edge of cybersecurity in London.
Africa is a region often overlooked when it comes to cybersecurity. Although cyber infrastructure is not as developed as in other regions, African companies need to look to secure their business in order to protect from data leaks and cyberattacks, such as the Wannacry ransomware in 2017.
