IN AN UNPRECEDENTED ACT OF LEGAL WARFARE, SHERIFFS have INVADED South Africa’s most secure data centres, SEIZING critical servers belonging to US cybersecurity GOLIATH Zscaler. This SHOCKING asset grab exposes a bitter, multi-million dollar blood feud that reveals the CUTTHROAT and ALLEGEDLY CORRUPT underbelly of global tech partnerships.
Court documents reveal this DRAMATIC SEIZURE is retaliation from local distributor Accelerate Networks, which accuses Zscaler of a DEVASTATING DOUBLE-CROSS. In a bombshell allegation, Accelerate claims Zscaler executives PROMISED them exclusive pricing for a massive Absa bank deal, ONLY TO STAB THEM IN THE BACK by selling directly and stealing the $18-million contract. This wasn’t just business—it was ALLEGED CORPORATE SABOTAGE.
But the scandal runs DEEPER. A second, explosive claim alleges a Zscaler representative engaged in a MALICIOUS SMEAR CAMPAIGN, deliberately DEFAMING Accelerate to a major client to DESTROY their decade-long business. The goal? To funnel profits to Zscaler’s preferred global allies. The total damages claimed: a STAGGERING R22-MILLION.
What does this mean for YOUR data? With Zscaler’s hardware PHYSICALLY LOCKED AWAY by court order, the security of its high-profile clients, including major banks, is now shrouded in UNCERTAINTY. The company’s AFRICAN OPERATIONS hang in the balance, yet Zscaler remains in RADIO SILENCE, refusing to answer for the chaos.
This is more than a contract dispute; it’s a BLUEPRINT for how Silicon Valley giants ALLEGEDLY CRUSH local competitors with impunity. If a cloud security titan’s assets can be physically taken offline, what—and who—is truly safe? The digital world you trust is being dismantled, one seized server at a time.
