Liquid’s Secure360: From Reactive To Predictive

By Ross Moyo

Liquid Intelligent Technologies is revitalising access to cloud and cybersecurity services in support of improved national digital resilience.

For years, Zimbabwean businesses treated cybersecurity as an afterthought — buy antivirus after an attack, call IT after data leaks. Liquid’s Secure360 flips that.

The model, already deployed in Botswana where Liquid has laid 1,174km of fibre and a 730km backbone along the A1, combines local delivery with continental-scale infrastructure and global partnerships.

In Zimbabwe, that means integrating the same stack that protects pan-African telecoms, fintechs and governments, into an SME in Harare, Bulawayo or Mutare.

With the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe flagging vulnerabilities in third-party providers and payment channels, and with POTRAZ’s CIRT handling unauthorized access, malware and system intrusions, businesses need layered defence: not just a firewall, but identity, cloud, data, people.

That’s why Sophos matters. Sophos protects against email attachments, identity fraud, ransomware — the exact threats ICT Minister Tatenda Mavetera says are exploding.

Liquid Zimbabwe Vice President and CEO Lorreta Songola, who is driving an AI-powered strategy with Microsoft Copilot and Cassava AI, has positioned Liquid not just as a connectivity provider, but as the enterprise security partner. The company also signed an MOU with the Ministry of Skills Audit to train youth in AI, cybersecurity and cloud.
