SayPro Quarterly Information & Targets (Q2: April–June)
Detailed Report: Respond to 100% of Flagged Malware Within 48 Hours

Objective

Target Goal:
Ensure 100% response rate to all flagged malware incidents within 48 hours of detection across all SayPro digital systems and platforms. This target is a key component of SayPro’s Q2 cybersecurity posture, designed to minimize threat exposure time and prevent escalation or data compromise.

Strategic Importance

Responding swiftly and decisively to malware threats is essential for:

  • Protecting user data from compromise or theft.
  • Maintaining system integrity and uninterrupted service.
  • Ensuring compliance with cybersecurity and data protection regulations (GDPR, POPIA, ISO 27001).
  • Preserving the trust of SayPro stakeholders and platform users.
  • Reducing remediation costs and resource waste caused by delayed actions.

Scope of Application

This response protocol applies to:

  • SayPro Public Website and Client Portals
  • SayPro Mobile Apps (iOS and Android)
  • SayPro Learning Portal (LMS)
  • SayPro Staff Intranet and Admin Dashboards
  • SayPro API Endpoints and Database Servers
  • Cloud-hosted environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)

Detection and Alerting System

Malware is detected through:

  • Scheduled malware scans (daily, weekly, and monthly)
  • Real-time alerts via integrated antivirus software (Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, etc.)
  • Threat intelligence feeds and SIEM logs
  • Reports from staff or automated system behavior monitoring

Each flagged malware instance is automatically logged into the SayPro Threat Detection Summary Log and assigned a severity level (Low, Medium, High, Critical).
