Across Africa, small and mid-sized businesses are entering a pivotal phase of digital growth. Cloud adoption is increasing, remote work is expanding, and MSPs are becoming critical partners in helping organizations stay connected and secure. Yet cyberattacks are rising just as fast, often targeting businesses that lack the resources, tools, and time to defend themselves.
Guardz and Frampol Africa are joining forces to make a change. Together, we are delivering cybersecurity that is smarter, simpler, and accessible to every business, no matter its size, location, or level of technical expertise.
A Partnership Built for Africa’s Realities
For many Zimbabwean and African businesses, cybersecurity has long felt out of reach. Solutions were either too expensive, too complicated, or simply not designed for the way local companies operate. Frampol Africa has seen these challenges firsthand, supporting organizations that want to grow digitally but struggle to stay secure in an increasingly hostile threat landscape.
By partnering with Guardz, Frampol is now able to offer a unified security platform that fits the day-to-day workflows of MSPs and SMEs. The platform provides a single place to manage email, endpoint, identity, cloud, and web protection, paired with automated responses to common threats and pricing that makes sense for local markets.
Neil Padmore, CEO of Frampol Africa, explained why this partnership matters so much to local businesses:
“Zimbabwe’s digital landscape is changing fast. Most attacks today target SMEs, not large corporations, and many local businesses lack the necessary tools or resources to protect themselves. Bringing Guardz to Zimbabwe gives MSPs and SMEs one simple dashboard to see threats, attacks, and fixes in real time. It’s affordable, comprehensive, and fits perfectly alongside the services we already provide. Guardz is a game-changer for African businesses.”
What Frampol Partners and Customers Gain
With this partnership, African MSPs and SMEs will now have access to:
- A unified dashboard that simplifies security management
- Automated remediation that reduces manual effort
- Fast onboarding and deployment
- Pricing designed for African business environments
- Local training and hands-on support from the Frampol team
The goal is simple: remove complexity, strengthen protection, and help businesses operate with confidence.
Aligned Missions, Shared Momentum
From early conversations, it was clear that Guardz and Frampol share the same belief: that strong cybersecurity should empower businesses, not burden them. As Zimbabwe’s digital economy expands, this partnership arrives at the perfect moment to support MSPs as they modernize their offerings and SMEs as they take their next steps into digital transformation.
Here’s how Itay Evron, Director of Partner Success at Guardz, described the collaboration:
“From the very beginning, our partnership with Frampol was driven by a powerful alignment of purpose. We share the same relentless drive to grow and the same uncompromising focus on the customer. Our leadership teams have been hands-on since day one because this mission matters deeply to us. We are not just offering technology; we are building a future where top-tier security is within reach for African businesses.”
Looking Ahead: Empowering the Region Together
Guardz and Frampol are already working on several initiatives to support the region’s service providers and business communities, including:
- Training programs tailored for African MSPs
- Co-branded cybersecurity awareness campaigns
- New security bundles created specifically for Zimbabwean SMEs
These efforts will help build a stronger, safer foundation for the businesses that drive Africa’s growth.
A New Era of Protection for African Businesses
The collaboration between Guardz and Frampol Africa represents more than a technology partnership. It is a commitment to creating a cybersecurity landscape where every business, regardless of size or resources, has access to intelligent, unified, and reliable protection.
Together, we are paving the way for a more secure digital future across the continent. And this is only the beginning.
