South African compliance at a glance

POPIA requires responsible parties to notify the Information Regulator and affected data subjects of breaches without unreasonable delay. The Cybercrimes Act criminalises cyber offences and creates SAPS reporting obligations. The FSCA and SARB have issued cybersecurity guidance for financial institutions.

Detect, respond, remediate

01

Detect

Our global SOC monitors your environment 24/7. AI-powered correlation and certified analysts surface real threats, not noise. Every confirmed alert is reviewed by a human expert.

02

Respond

Within 15 minutes of a confirmed incident, your team receives clear, actionable guidance, or our SOC acts directly on your behalf, depending on the service level you've selected.

03

Remediate

We contain the threat, produce compliance-ready incident documentation and keep your business running without disruption.

Frequently asked questions

Is Vijilan ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certified?

Yes. Both certifications are current and audited annually.

How does Vijilan help South African businesses comply with POPIA?

Each incident is documented per POPIA standard. We retain records and produce Information Regulator notification packets within the required timeframe.

Does Vijilan cover financial institutions under SARB and FSCA guidance?

Yes. Our service is used by South African financial institutions and aligns with SARB Directive 8 and FSCA cybersecurity guidance.

Where is South African client data stored, and is the SOC available during SAST hours?

Data residency and retention are mapped to POPIA obligations during onboarding, with regional cloud options available through Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. The SOC is 24/7, so SAST business hours and out-of-hours are covered identically, and reporting is aligned to your business day.
