Africa's digital economy is growing rapidly — but so is the cyber threat landscape targeting African businesses.

TACGauge provides African businesses and their IT consultants with structured, AI-powered technology maturity assessments that are practical and affordable — delivering the same quality of insight as large consulting firms, in 10 minutes, at a fraction of the cost.

TACGauge is an AI-powered technology maturity assessment platform available to businesses and IT consultants across Africa, including South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Egypt, and other African markets. It offers 15 assessment types covering cyber security, cloud migration, AI readiness, data governance, FinOps, M365 security, Zero Trust, and more.

POPIA (Protection of Personal Information Act) is South Africa's data protection legislation, which became fully enforceable in July 2021. It establishes eight conditions for lawful processing of personal information, covering collection limitation, purpose specification, information quality, openness, security safeguards, data subject participation, and more. TACGauge's Data Governance & Privacy assessment benchmarks South African organisations against data protection maturity controls directly relevant to POPIA compliance, including security safeguards, breach notification processes, and data subject rights.
The Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) issued by NITDA (National Information Technology Development Agency) establishes data protection requirements for Nigerian organisations. It covers lawful basis for processing, data subject rights, data transfer restrictions, breach reporting, and mandatory data protection audits for organisations processing personal data of more than 1,000 data subjects per year. TACGauge's Data Governance & Privacy assessment helps Nigerian organisations benchmark their data protection maturity against NDPR requirements.
Kenya's Data Protection Act 2019, administered by the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC), established a comprehensive data protection framework for Kenyan organisations. It covers registration requirements for data controllers and processors, lawful basis for processing, data subject rights, cross-border transfer restrictions, and security obligations. TACGauge assessments help Kenyan businesses understand their data protection and cyber security maturity baseline.
For African businesses, the most commonly used TACGauge assessments are: Cyber Security Posture (relevant across all African markets given rising cyber threat levels), Data Governance & Privacy (POPIA, NDPR, Kenya DPA compliance), Cloud Migration Readiness (as African enterprises accelerate cloud adoption), AI Readiness (as African organisations evaluate AI adoption opportunities), and M365 Security Posture (widely used across African enterprise). All 15 assessments are available.
Yes. The TACGauge Partner Programme is open to IT consultants, MSPs, and technology advisory firms across Africa.
