Infrastructure

Cybersecurity Services

Defensive engineering for serious workloads.

We deliver application security, infrastructure hardening, identity, and incident response services for institutions that cannot afford downtime.

The practice

Defensive engineering for serious workloads.

PANEOTECH delivers application security, infrastructure hardening, identity and access management, and incident response for institutional clients. The cybersecurity practice combines technical depth with the institutional governance frameworks that public-sector and multilateral clients require, including ISO 27001 alignment and the audit obligations donor-funded programmes operate within.

Capabilities

Across the cybersecurity lifecycle.

Application security

Threat modelling, secure code review, SAST and DAST integration, dependency scanning, and the engineering practices that prevent vulnerability classes rather than chasing them.

Infrastructure hardening

Network segmentation, host hardening, encryption at rest and in transit, key management, and the configuration baselines that close the most common attack vectors.

Identity and access

Single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, role-based access control, privilege access management, and the identity architecture that institutional environments require.

Vulnerability management

Continuous scanning, prioritisation by exploitability and exposure, remediation tracking, and the operational discipline that turns vulnerability data into vulnerability action.

Incident response

Detection engineering, runbooks, tabletop exercises, and the live incident response capability institutional clients need when something has gone wrong.

Compliance and audit

ISO 27001 alignment, donor security requirements, regulator-specific frameworks, and the documentation that makes audits a confirmation rather than a discovery exercise.

At a glance

Engineered for institutional accountability.

ISO 27001Aligned controls across institutional engagements
MFAAnd SSO mandatory across every platform we ship
AuditTrail and access logs built in, not bolted on
IRRunbooks and tabletop exercises shipped on every major engagement
Why it matters

Security is an engineering practice.

Most security failures are engineering failures: a misconfigured access policy, a dependency that should have been patched, a credential that should never have been in the codebase. Our practice exists because the institutions we serve cannot afford the cost of those failures, and our cybersecurity work is engineered into the platforms we build rather than reviewed onto them at the end.

In the field

Where we apply this expertise.

A selection of PANEOTECH projects that draw on this area of expertise.

Mauritania

HydroMet AI, AI-Powered Early Warning System for Hydrometeorological Hazards in the Senegal River Valley

A national early warning system delivered by PANEOTECH for UNDP Mauritania, in joint venture with Effica SYS Co SARL, to anticipate hydrometeorological hazards in the Senegal River Valley. The system combines a stacked LSTM neural network with the SWAT hydrological model and ingests data from seven complementary global sources, including Open-Meteo, NASA POWER, GloFAS via Copernicus, and CHIRPS and SMAP via Google Earth Engine. Alerts are validated by institutional operators before diffusion across SMS, WhatsApp, email, web, mobile, radio, and television channels.

Continental

DiraCore, Pan-African Agricultural Data Infrastructure

A Pan-African agricultural data infrastructure that turns fragmented smallholder data into structured digital assets, supporting financial analysis, EUDR deforestation compliance, voluntary carbon market certification, and credit scoring. Designed for Pan-African Management Services with operations across East and West Africa.

Continental

Anti-Illicit Financial Flows Policy Tracker

A continental analytical platform tracking anti-illicit-financial-flows policies across more than fifty African countries. Built for Tax Justice Network Africa, the African Union and ATAF to support implementation of the Mbeki Report recommendations on illicit financial flows from Africa.

Continental

All Business Africa, Pan-African Business Intelligence and Deal Platform

A pan-African business intelligence and deal platform delivered by PANEOTECH for POLIWATCH AFRICA, covering all fifty-four African Union member states. The platform consolidates verified company directories, investment deal flow, funding and tender opportunities, and market intelligence into a single environment for entrepreneurs, investors, development finance institutions, corporates, and policymakers. The platform is co-owned and jointly operated by POLIWATCH AFRICA and PANEOTECH going forward.

Burundi

Plateforme numerique du PFCIGL (Burundi)

A national digital platform for the Great Lakes Trade Facilitation and Integration Project in Burundi, presenting the four strategic axes of the programme, geolocated intervention sites across border posts, lake ports, access roads and cross-border markets, with an integrated GIS, results indicators, geolocated data stories, and a custom CMS for the Project Management Unit at the Ministry of Commerce.

Southern Africa

Digital Platform and Regulatory Information-Sharing System for CRASA

A regional digital platform and regulatory information-sharing system for the Communications Regulators' Association of Southern Africa, delivered by PANEOTECH under the EU-funded EGEE-ICT programme led by COMESA. The system modernises CRASA's digital presence, integrates its existing operational tools, and adds a structured information-sharing platform with database backbone, role-based access, and advanced regulatory search across the fourteen SADC member states the association harmonises.
