South Africa’s MyBitSecure Launches Smart, Secure IoT Farming System to Protect Africa’s Digital Farms
The company’s solution equips farmers with connected sensors, flow meters, and data dashboards that can be integrated into existing irrigation systems, helping them monitor water and soil conditions more efficiently.
By making its hardware retrofittable, MyBitSecure enables farms to modernise without overhauling their existing infrastructure.
Alongside improving productivity, the startup is tackling a growing concern—cyber threats targeting digital farms.
As agriculture becomes more connected, farm systems and data are increasingly at risk.
MyBitSecure’s platform includes built-in cybersecurity features designed to keep agricultural operations safe from digital intrusions.
“The future of African agriculture must be both smart and secure,” said founder Trevor Murimba. “We’re giving farmers the tools to make data-driven decisions about water and soil while ensuring their systems remain protected.”
MyBitSecure’s innovation places it at the intersection of agritech and cybersecurity, offering a model for how African farms can embrace digital transformation safely and sustainably.
