Genians Expands NAC-Driven ZTNA Footprint in Africa, Addressing Kenya's Growing Cyber Threat

Genians, a pioneer in NAC-driven Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solutions, announced significant growth in its African market, driven by a strategic partnership with RASInfotech. Since entering the region in 2022, Genians has rapidly gained traction, particularly in Kenya, where the demand for robust cybersecurity solutions is escalating.

Kenya, while making strides in cybersecurity legislation with the Kenya Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act, continues to grapple with sophisticated cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure, including its financial sector and energy grids. To counter these risks, a fundamental shift towards advanced security architectures is imperative.

Genians’ NAC-driven ZTNA solution, known as Universal ZTNA, offers a comprehensive approach to safeguarding networks. By combining Network Access Control with Zero Trust principles, organizations can establish a multi-layered defense against cyberattacks. This solution provides:

  • Enhanced Visibility: Provides comprehensive network observability through device platform intelligence and traffic flow analysis using non-disruptive network sensing technology.
  • Microsegmentation: Divides a network into secure segments, enforcing granular security policies for access control.
  • Multi-layered Policy Enforcement: Utilizes ARP, 802.1X (RADIUS), Cloud Gateway, and agent-based enforcement.
  • Context-based Least Privilege Access: Grants minimum network access necessary based on device & user’s context (role, location, security posture).
  • Various Authentication Methods: Supports AD, SSO, RADIUS, MFA, and Biometric (FIDO).
  • Secure Remote Access: Provides secure access from anywhere, anytime.
  • Application Control: Offers visibility and control over applications and services.
  • Compliance Assurance: Aligns with industry standards (PCI, HIPAA, NIST, ISO 27002) and continuously monitors compliance.
  • Security Service Edge (SSE): Augments SSE to provide secure access to various IT assets, protecting users and data in a distributed network environment.
  • White-labeled SASE Solution: Available for MSSPs.
