MyBitSecure launches at Agri5 Expo: Pioneering Smart AgriTech + Cybersecurity for African Farms

Durban, KwaZulu-Natal - Emerging at the intersection of agriculture, technology and security, MyBitSecure today introduces its flagship offering to the Southern African market at Agri5 Expo 2025. With the theme “Smart Farms. Secured Futures.”, MyBitSecure positions itself as one of the first smart agritech companies in South Africa and in Africa to deliver a fully integrated solution that combines IoT-enabled irrigation & soil-monitoring systems and enterprise-grade cybersecurity for farm data.

Why this matters

African agriculture is undergoing a transformation from manual, legacy systems to data-driven, connected farms. MyBitSecure’s recent field visit revealed many farms still operate with human-manipulated valves, high-pressure lines and no sensor infrastructure, a key reason transformation has stalled.

By designing retro-fittable sensors, flow-meters and dashboards that integrate into existing irrigation systems, MyBitSecure bridges the gap between traditional infrastructure and the digital future.

In addition to smart hardware and data analytics, MyBitSecure emphasizes cybersecurity, recognising that as farms become connected, their data, water systems and soil systems become vulnerable. This dual focus positions MyBitSecure as a first-mover in combining smart agritech with “cyber-resilient” agriculture in the region.

What we’re launching at Agri5 Expo

• A live demonstration of its soil-moisture sensor network, flow-meter and cloud dashboard, showing real-time irrigation and soil data across a demo zone
• A secondary demonstration of its cybersecurity layer: monitoring connected farm devices, alerting on unusual behaviour, and providing a “farm telemetry security” dashboard.
• Information on modular “plug-in” solutions that enable farmers to upgrade existing irrigation systems in phases, without full system replacement.
• Launch of the commercial offering targeting small to medium scale commercial farms, agribusinesses and cooperatives in South Africa and neighbouring countries.

Leadership quote

“At MyBitSecure we believe the future of African Agriculture is as smart as it is secure, said Trevor Murimba, Founder & Agri-Cybersecurity Advisor, MyBitSecure. “Our unique value is offering farms the data-driven tools they need to optimise water and soil usage as well as the cybersecurity they deserve in an era of connected agri-systems. We’re proud to be launching in KZN this week at Agri5 Expo, and invite farmers, agribusiness leaders and partners to join the journey.”

Why “first”/ “leading” claims

MyBitSecure is the first South African agritech firm to deliver a combined “smart irrigation + soil sensing + enterprise-grade cybersecurity” stack (hardware + analytics + security) packaged for farms.

We are among the leading companies in Southern Africa driving the shift from legacy farming infrastructure into digital, network-connected farms especially emphasising retrofit rather than full rebuild.

With our solution designed specifically for the African farming context (focus on legacy infrastructure, affordability, modular adoption), we are establishing thought-leadership in “smart agritech for Africa” and not just importing models from Europe/North America but building for African farms.
