Genians, a pioneer in NAC-driven Zero Trust Network Access
(ZTNA) solutions, announced significant growth in its African
market, driven by a strategic partnership with RASInfotech. Since

particularly in Kenya, where the demand for robust cybersecurity
solutions is escalating.
Kenya, while making strides in cybersecurity legislation with
the Kenya Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act, continues to grapple
with sophisticated cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure,
including its financial sector and energy grids. To counter these
risks, a fundamental shift towards advanced security architectures
is imperative.
