IN a globalized and interconnected world where borders are becoming less and less effective, the African continent is facing radical changes that are accelerating at an exponential pace. In this context, it is more crucial than ever for Africa to invest heavily in the cybersecurity industry to ensure the protection of its assets.

Indeed, cybersecurity has become an essential strategic issue. Cyberattacks can have devastating consequences for countries, governments, businesses, and citizens, ranging from the loss of sensitive data to privacy violations, theft of money and disruption of essential services. Some attacks may even be carried out by belligerent powers and cause irreparable damage to national security.

Faced with these threats, it is urgent for Africa to take the lead by relying on local expertise to ensure total autonomy in protecting its territorial integrity. AITEK, as a Regional but Local Value-Added Distributor, will be present at 

2023 in Marrakech to contribute to building the Africa of tomorrow by exchanging with the various stakeholders in the cybersecurity ecosystem.

More than ever, it is crucial for Africa to unite its forces to make the right decisions and not miss the digital revolution. It is now that action must be taken to ensure the protection of African assets in a world that is evolving at an ever-faster pace.
