Namibia Threat Landscape 2024
37% increase in cyber incidents (Interpol 2023)
N$85M estimated losses in 2023

The Cost of Insecurity
According to Interpol's 2023 African Cyberthreat Assessment, Namibia saw a 57% increase in cyber incidents, with estimated losses of N$185M. Yet most organizations discover breaches not through their own monitoring, but when notified by third parties, often months after the initial compromise.
The hidden threat: 60% of small businesses close within 6 months of a major breach. The question isn't if you'll be targeted, it's when and whether you'll be prepared.
VTA Namibia doesn't just find vulnerabilities, we help you understand your real risk posture and build defenses that actually work.
