29-31 MAY 2024 – DARK STAGE

In the face of escalating cyber threats, Africa grapples with unique challenges in cybersecurity, losing $4 billion annually to cybercrime, equivalent to 10% of its GDP.

Cyber-attacks surged by over 20% in the past year alone, jeopardizing economic growth and individual privacy. Despite these challenges, the private sector is actively investing in cybersecurity infrastructure and talent. As Africa embraces new technologies like cloud computing and IoT, there is a heightened need for comprehensive cybersecurity policies and frameworks.

Join us as we work towards building a resilient digital ecosystem, integrating security into every facet of Africa's digital development and shaping a secure, trustworthy future for the continent.
