The real digital risks

Small businesses face real digital risks every day

A stolen password, fake payment message, compromised WhatsApp account or employee mistake can disrupt operations, expose customer information and damage trust.

Account takeover

Protect business email, WhatsApp and social-media accounts from unauthorised access.

Payment fraud

Reduce exposure to fake transfers, invoice manipulation and impersonation.

Phishing and scams

Help employees recognise suspicious messages, links and requests.

Weak internal processes

Create practical security habits even without a dedicated IT team.

Why it exists

Designed with small-business realities in mind

Most cybersecurity tools are built for enterprise IT teams. Shield360 was built for the way African SMEs actually operate — mobile-first, communication-heavy and often without a dedicated IT specialist.

For non-technical teams

Plain English, short assessments and actionable next steps that anyone in the business can follow.

Measurable improvement

Track your score and category ratings over time so security progress is visible, not abstract.

Practical, not theoretical

Guidance focused on the accounts, tools and payment channels African SMEs actually use every day.

Your trust matters

  • Encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Role-based access control
