Afriko CEO Kenny Mziza said,"Last year,City Power,a power supply organization in Johannesburg,the capital city,was heavily damaged by ransomware attacks. As a result,power outages occurred in most areas of the city,and administrative processing such as access to the City Power website as well as various electricity-related taxes was paralyzed. It was found that the ransomware attack occurred through email attachments including malicious code. We were looking for a solution to defend against these attacks and we made sure that the SecuLetter product fit perfectly into the market requirements,so we chose."
