Join Wolfpack’s Craig Rosewarne at this critical discussion on how to improve SA’s cyber resiliency.
SOUTH AFRICA IS BLEEDING OUT. Interpol has exposed our nation as the #1 CYBER CRIME TARGET in Africa, with government and financial systems UNDER SIEGE from relentless ransomware attacks. Yet, while digital gangs pillage our economy, the government’s defense is a JOKE—their flagship “Cyber Security Hub” website is literally OFFLINE FOR “MAINTENANCE.” This is not bureaucracy; it’s SURRENDER.
Now, a lone warrior, Wolfpack MD Craig Rosewarne, is stepping into the void with a FIVE-POINT BATTLE PLAN so radical it exposes the TOTAL FAILURE of our current leadership. His shocking blueprint reveals that South Africa has NO coordinated defense, NO real-time threat sharing, and NO protection for its critical infrastructure. He claims national cyber crises simulations would prove we are ONE CLICK AWAY from total societal collapse.
The damning evidence? When Transnet and the national court system were paralyzed by hackers, the economic shockwaves proved NO ONE IS IN CHARGE. Rosewarne’s explosive solution: a new joint national cyber security agency to REPLACE the dormant Hub, mandatory audits for critical infrastructure, and a threat intelligence exchange to FINALLY connect the dots. He accuses the current system of leaving SMEs, NGOs, and millions of poor citizens EXPOSED and abandoned.
Even more controversially, Rosewarne SLAMS the chaotic skills development landscape, where B-BBEE funds and SETA levies are allegedly “unspent” due to gross mismanagement, while cyber unemployment soars. His plan promises to weaponize this wasted money against the very enemies exploiting our weakness.
But can a “closed-door session” with elites REALLY save us, or is this just another performative talk shop while the walls burn down? The establishment’s track record suggests the latter. As criminals laugh and our data is sold on the dark web, one terrifying question remains: Is South Africa already a failed state in the digital realm, merely waiting for the final, catastrophic attack to make it official?
