Africa has witnessed a rapid increase in cyber threats, targeting businesses of all sizes and industries. The evolving threat landscape poses significant risks, ranging from data breaches and financial loss to reputational damage and legal liabilities. To combat these threats, businesses must adopt proactive security measures to safeguard their sensitive data and protect their operations.

Sage 300 offers a wide array of built-in security features to fortify the defences of African businesses. These features include multi-factor authentication, which enhances access control by requiring multiple verification steps for user authentication.

Sage 300 also employs secure access controls, allowing businesses to define user roles and permissions, thus preventing unauthorized access to confidential data.

Additionally, Sage 300 emphasizes user awareness and training, recognizing that human-related security risks are as important to address as technical vulnerabilities. By educating employees about best security practices and potential threats, businesses can foster a culture of cybersecurity awareness and reduce the likelihood of human error.

African businesses must navigate a complex regulatory landscape, including data privacy laws, industry-specific regulations, and international standards. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in severe penalties, reputational damage, and legal consequences.
