ICT industry trends: Security and cloud adoption challenges
The South African ICT industry faces significant challenges as digital threats increase. SMEs are vulnerable to phishing, ransomware and data breaches, often without sufficient internal resources to manage these risks. At the same time, many businesses are adopting hybrid work models, which place added pressure on IT systems to remain accessible, secure and efficient across locations.
To address these demands, companies like LanDynamix are adopting layered security frameworks. These include email filtering, antivirus protection, firewall management and patch automation. They also focus on zero-trust security principles, where verification is required for every user and device. This approach is gaining traction as businesses seek to minimise risk without complicating access for their teams.
Cloud adoption introduces additional complexity. Businesses require reliable backups, secure collaboration tools and real-time access to files from distributed environments. LanDynamix uses platforms like Microsoft Office 365 to meet these demands, combining OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams into an integrated system. This model helps companies stay connected while ensuring that their data is backed up and protected.
