Cameroon

Why Cameroon?

Cameroon occupies a strategic position in Central Africa, with a dense and diversified industrial base encompassing the cement, energy, agribusiness, oil & gas, metallurgy, mining, and critical infrastructure sectors.

The country boasts:

• Major, highly automated industrial sites,
• Strategic infrastructure (ports, airports, power plants, pipelines),
• Accelerated industrial digitalization, exposing OT environments to new cybersecurity risks.

In this context, local decision-makers are expressing a growing need for awareness, experience sharing, and concrete solutions tailored to local realities.
It is therefore natural that Cameroon is the first stop on the Africa OT Security Experience roadshow.
