Let’s face it. As the Internet continues to fragment, many organizations operating transnationally are confronting the same growing challenge: how to keep the full spectrum of organizational sensors, devices, data, applications and systems online and working in environments experiencing censorship, surveillance, and degraded infrastructure. From embedded sensors in contested regions, to logistics systems interrupted by DNS filtering, to applications throttled during unrest, the risks to operational continuity are increasingly challenging, distributed, and hard to predict. The result is a fragile, brittle ecosystem, where even minor disruptions can cascade into major failures. And failure means the potential for revenue, operational and reputational loss.

Across Africa, digital access is increasingly unpredictable. With 21 shutdowns in 15 countries in 2024 alone, governments are using internet shutdowns and social media blocking to control communication flows during elections, protests, and political unrest. Under these conditions, organizations face fragile and shifting network infrastructures, leaving fewer reliable channels for coordination and information sharing. The Psiphon Forge API is specifically designed to help organizations maintain connectivity even when networks are restricted.

In today’s fragmented and heterogeneous digital world, network continuity can no longer be taken for granted. From geopolitical tensions to the growing use of regional Internet shutdowns, network security threats and unpredictable disruptions pose a significant challenge to any organization providing transnational services across Eurasia, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. As access conditions shift without warning, organizations need infrastructure that can withstand volatility while preserving operational integrity.
