    Jun 13 2024
    Alan Kemp, director at Iris Network Systems, has a long history in South Africa’s internet service provider industry. So, he knows all too well how load shedding can play havoc with internet and telecommunications networks, and the teams employed to ensure their smooth functioning.

Being in this space in South Africa presents several real challenges, not least of them dealing with the chaos caused by Eskom’s rolling power cuts.
    In this episode of TechCentral’s TCS+ business technology show, Kemp tells Duncan McLeod about the impact of load shedding on networking monitoring and management, and the solution Iris has developed to lessen the aggravation caused to network support teams.
    Kemp unpacks how Iris assists companies impacted by load shedding as well as the company’s full solution set.

  • Check Point dissects the complexities of cloud security
    Jun 11 2024
    Promoted | Check Point’s Rudi van Rooyen explains why cloud security is not as straightforward as organisations might assume.
    The software security landscape is in a constant state of flux.
    According to research undertaken by Check Point Software Technologies – an AI-powered, cloud-delivered cybersecurity platform provider protecting over 100 000 organisations worldwide – African organisations have been attacked on average 2 508 times a week in the last six months. This compares to 1 379 per organisation globally.
    Some 70% of malicious files impacting African organisations were delivered via e-mail in the last 30 days, while the most common vulnerability exploit type is “information disclosure”, impacting 75% of organisations.
    The race is therefore on between threat actors looking to exploit organisations and cybersecurity experts who protect sensitive organisational data.
    In this episode of TCS+, Rudi van Rooyen, security engineer at Check Point Software Africa, offers a deep dive into the ins and outs of software system security for organisations of any size.
    Van Rooyen unpacks:
    • Why cloud migration is not a cure-all for software security issues in an organisation, and how security in a cloud setting should be approached.
    • How Check Point manages to maintain a prevention-first approach to cybersecurity despite new types of attacks being developed daily.
    • How AI is helping the chief information security officer cope with skills shortages and overwork by simplifying security operations.
    • How Check Point’s virtual CISO function assists security leads in addressing their cybersecurity concerns.
    • Insights into how much cybercrime impacts the South African economy.
    • What Check Point recommends organisations do to better protect themselves against cybercriminals.
    Insightful, important and sometimes technical, this discussion is critical for any information security expert or business owner looking to better protect their enterprise against cyber threats.

  • ESET’s Adrian Stanford: how AI will transform cybersecurity
    Jun 10 2024
    Artificial intelligence technologies will be used by both threat actors and those fighting cybercrime, and will bring about fundamental changes in the information security industry.
    This is the view of Adrian Stanford, group chief technology officer at ESET Southern Africa, who was speaking to TechCentral’s TCS+ business technology show this week.
    Stanford, who is immersed in the world of infosec, unpacks how cyberattackers are using – and will expand their use of – generative AI tools to achieve their nefarious objectives, and how cybersecurity professionals can utilise the same technologies to fight back and improve defences.
    He unpacks:
    • The key trends shaping the infosec landscape in 2024, including supply-chain attacks, deepfakes and nation state involvement;
    • How AI factors into cybersecurity, including what threat actors are doing with the technology, and how AI will help companies like ESET fight the scourge of cybercrime;
    • How future developments in AI will impact the infosec field, both good and bad; and
    • The role of ESET in protecting internet users from harm as the AI arms race hots up.
    Don’t miss this important discussion on a critically important topic to all organisations – big and small – in 2024.
