Protect the digital services people depend on, and the lives behind their data.

Behind every system is someone who needs it to work.

When a digital service fails, people can lose more than access to a website. Their information, trust and ability to use an essential service can be at stake.

Rift Weld helps organisations find and fix the weaknesses that put those things at risk. Its paid security work combines testing, engineering and retesting. Through the Safeguarding Infrastructure Program, it also offers free reviews and remediation support to African government and parastatal services.

Why we’re building it.

A public service going online should make life easier. When it is compromised, the cost lands on the people waiting for that service and the people whose information it holds. INTERPOL’s 2025 assessment reported that cybercrime accounted for more than 30 per cent of reported crime in Western and Eastern Africa, according to member countries surveyed.

Freereview and help fixing exposed public services through the Safeguarding Infrastructure Program

Rift Weld combines security testing with the engineering needed to put things right. Its Safeguarding Infrastructure Program offers free reviews and help fixing publicly reachable government and parastatal services across Africa. The work is judged by what is fixed and retested, not by the length of a report.

Protection that ends with a verified fix.

Turn security findings into safer services, including for institutions that cannot fund a commercial engagement.

Keep essential services available

Find the weaknesses that could interrupt services or expose people’s information. Make the risks clear enough for the organisation to act.

Stay through the repair

Work with the organisation’s engineers to make and retest the fix. The useful outcome is a safer service, not a finding left in a document.

Reach institutions without a security budget

The Safeguarding Infrastructure Program makes review and remediation support available to public institutions free of charge.
