Africa is building its future on digital infrastructure. Who is securing it?
Across the continent, solar grids are replacing diesel generators, SCADA systems are managing water for fast-growing cities, and connected machinery is producing the critical minerals the global economy depends on. Every one of those systems is being connected to a network at the very moment adversaries have proven they can cause blackouts, disable safety systems and destroy industrial equipment by purely digital means.
Securing Africa's Critical Infrastructure is the first book-length guide to operational technology (OT) and industrial control systems (ICS) cybersecurity written for African realities: legacy plants, stretched budgets, diverse regulators, and a security ecosystem that must be built rather than inherited.
Inside you will find:
- The African threat landscape: state actors, ransomware crews and the contest for critical minerals
- Sector-by-sector guidance for energy, water, oil & gas, mining, ports & transport, telecoms, healthcare and agriculture
- IEC 62443, NIST SP 800-82 and MITRE ATT&CK for ICS, adapted for African operators
- A national OT/ICS strategy blueprint and the AISM maturity model
- Ready-to-use tools: assessment checklists, an incident-response template, RFP language and tabletop scenarios
Written for plant engineers, CISOs, regulators, policymakers and development partners, this is a practical handbook for the people who keep the lights on, the water flowing and the mines running, and who will build the continental security community that no single nation can build alone.
