In response to the escalating global threats to national data integrity and the rise of AI-driven foreign surveillance, Smart Africa, through the Smart Africa Digital Academy (SADA), has entered into a strategic partnership with RealTyme to fortify the digital frontiers of its member states.
As the African continent faces a 60% higher rate of cyber-attacks than the global average, this initiative moves beyond theoretical training to provide a National Protection Framework. The partnership is designed to ensure that the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and modern digital tools does not come at the cost of national security, executive privacy, or judicial independence.
Through this partnership, SADA will deliver operational guidance and decision-support tools to ICT Ministries, Interior Ministries, and Cybersecurity Authorities (including the ANCA network), transforming national digital strategy into an impenetrable line of defence for the 21st century.
