The available discussion centers on SITA’s proposed five-year networking tender, covering LAN, wireless, WAN, SD-WAN, backhaul, structured cabling, network management and related services. In that context, POPIA, data masking, governance, risk and compliance are part of the wider issues infrastructure teams may need to consider alongside Windows environments, licensing and backups. This page is most relevant to readers following how government networking procurements connect operational technology decisions with privacy and information-management concerns. The popia data masking archive will grow as related discussions are published.
