  • TCS+ | Telco or ISP? Tired of load shedding chaos? This is for you
    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.
    Iris Network Systems is a specialist South African service provider that specialises in network monitoring and management, with a historical focus on ISPs and operators, and currently entering the Enterprise market. 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.
    If you’re an ISP or network operator, you’ll not want to miss this discussion. TechCentral

  • TCS+ | 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.

  • TCS | MultiChoice declares war on piracy - the man leading the fight
    Jun 10 2024
    MultiChoice Group has been involved in two major enforcement actions against piracy kingpins in as many weeks.
    Frikkie Jonker, of MultiChoice subsidiary Irdeto, is the man leading the charge against these pirate operations, and he tells the TechCentral Show (TCS) that, despite recent arrests, the broadcaster’s war on streaming piracy is just getting started. More arrests and other enforcement actions are on the cards.
    On 5 June, MultiChoice revealed it had succeeding in nailing the streaming piracy platform Waka TV in an operation that involved Western Cape police investigators. It described the dismantling of Waka TV as “a significant victory in the fight against internet streaming piracy”.
    The broadcaster said it was involved in a “meticulously planned raid” on 31 May, which led to the arrest of a “key suspect involved in one of the most extensive pirate operations in Africa”.
    A day later, on 6 June, the broadcaster announced that through Irdeto – and working with law enforcement agencies – it had acted against another pirate streaming operation, this one in Gauteng, where a suspect was arrested for the “illegal sale of internet streaming pirate devices that allowed individuals to access MultiChoice content”.
    Jonker, who is antipiracy director in broadcasting and cybersecurity at Irdeto, takes TechCentral’s audience into some detail about the two law enforcement operations and what transpired. And he explains why MultiChoice is stepping up its battle against content thieves and pirate streaming operations in South Africa and the rest of the African continent.
    In the interview, Jonker unpacks:
    • How serious content piracy has become on the continent;
    • Why it’s often associated with organised criminal syndicates, and why consumers are putting themselves at risk by signing up to pirate streaming platforms as well as encouraging further criminal activity;
    • Why MultiChoice is now warning that, in addition to targeting the pirate platform operators, it may go after consumers who sign up to these platforms, too; and
    • How the broadcaster is working with law enforcement authorities.
