Integrity360 invests R55m in CT base and its largest SOC

Cyber security firm Integrity360 has invested R55 million in a new Cape Town headquarters, which houses its largest Security Operations Centre (SOC). The company claims that the move is driven by the need to train cyber security professionals and create jobs in South Africa. The 40-desk SOC, which opened on September 14, provides monitoring and incident response for customers across Africa and internationally.

Cape Town became Integrity360's base two years ago, after the company acquired two local cyber security businesses. The new facility aims to address three pressures: organizations adopting AI safely while defending against AI-driven attacks, the growing number of machine and AI identities, and regulators placing more responsibility for cyber resilience on boards and executives.

Integrity360's CEO, Ian Brown, stated that Cape Town is not seen as a satellite office but a statement of the company's commitment to the skills and market in the region. The investment is expected to create approximately 100 additional jobs over three years.
