Tracking data and cyber policy across Sub-Saharan Africa
A US technology company expanding across Sub-Saharan Africa needed continuous visibility into a fast-moving legal and regulatory landscape — data-protection and localization laws, sectoral regulation, privacy rules, and emerging cybersecurity mandates — across multiple national jurisdictions and regulators, often in local languages and ahead of formal publication.
We established a standing legislative- and regulatory-monitoring programme: tracking bills, regulator guidance, enforcement actions, and the political signals behind them; assessing each development against the client's specific exposure; and delivering concise, prioritised alerts with a clear read on likely direction and timing. Where the public record was thin, our local networks and OSINT closed the gap.
