ABSTRACT

Higher education institutions are under pressure to deliver modern digital services while managing rising cyber risk, legacy platforms, constrained budgets and scarce specialist skills. This session will explore how universities can connect cybersecurity, modernisation and digital transformation into one practical agenda. Using iGuardSA’s Secure, Modernise, Transform framework, we will show how cyber resilience enables trusted digital learning, secure research, cloud adoption, AI readiness, data protection and operational continuity. The session will give CIOs, IT directors and ICT managers a practical view of what to prioritise, how to reduce exposure, and how to brief leadership with facts rather than hope.
