Insight Consulting and Obrela Partner to Deliver Real-Time Cybersecurity for South African Businesses
Johannesburg – Data solutions specialist Insight Consulting has formed a strategic alliance with global cybersecurity firm Obrela to bring advanced threat detection and response capabilities to South African enterprises.
Addressing South Africa’s Cybersecurity Crisis
The partnership comes at a critical time when cybercrime cost the South African economy R2.2-billion in 2024. Insight Consulting’s account manager Ivan Jardim emphasized that cybersecurity is no longer just an IT concern but a fundamental business risk.
“We chose Obrela because they bridge the gap between cybersecurity and business priorities, providing real-time risk management to protect both operations and reputation,” said Jardim.
Combatting False Security Perceptions
Jardim warned against complacency in cybersecurity: “Many businesses operate under the illusion that basic digital hygiene like passwords and biometrics provides adequate protection. The reality is cybercriminals are exploiting vulnerabilities through even simple actions like public Wi-Fi connections.”
AI-Powered Cybersecurity Solutions
The partnership delivers several key cybersecurity services:
- 24/7 Managed Detection and Response: Continuous monitoring with AI-driven analytics
- Comprehensive Risk Management: Business-focused threat assessment
- Advanced Threat Intelligence: Proactive identification of emerging risks
- Regulatory Compliance: Assistance with complex data governance requirements
Certified Protection for Businesses
Obrela brings internationally recognized certifications including multiple ISO accreditations, providing assurance of enterprise-grade security standards. “These certifications objectively confirm adherence to global best practices,” Jardim noted.
The solution emphasizes customization, recognizing that each organization faces unique cybersecurity challenges. “There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to cybersecurity,” Jardim emphasized.
Businesses seeking comprehensive cybersecurity solutions can contact Insight Consulting for tailored protection strategies.
