Resilience Technologies is an innovation-driven cybersecurity company. We are passionate about protecting at-risk communities (such as journalists, civil society, religious groups, etc) who are exposed and vulnerable to state and non-state attacks. We work across various cybersecurity domains (Vulnerability Assessment, Threat Management, Malware Analysis, etc), keeping innovation at the heart of it all to ensure these marginalised communities are both safe and resilient to threats and targeted harms. In three years, and across several projects, we have supported and strengthened the resilience of over 90 organisations in Nigeria, Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Kenya, Zambia, and more.
