Spirion LLC, a U.S.-based company specialising in data discovery, classification, and remediation, announced the opening of its first data centre in South Africa on January 8, 2025.

This facility in Cape Town signifies Spirion’s commitment to enhancing data protection measures as organisations increasingly rely on sensitive information.

CEO Kevin Coppins expressed his enthusiasm about the launch, “Protecting what matters most—sensitive data—requires accurate data discovery and classification.” 

The Cape Town facility will support local businesses in complying with South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) while transitioning to Spirion’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform.

The demand for robust data security solutions is rising as Africa experiences rapid digital adoption. Spirion aims to meet this need by providing advanced tools for uncovering and managing sensitive data.

The new centre is strategically positioned to serve the growing local market, offering enhanced capabilities for data analysis at the petabyte scale.

Meeting local market needs

As South Africa’s data centre colocation market is projected to grow significantly, Spirion’s investment reflects a broader trend of increasing demand for digital infrastructure.

Research indicates that the market was valued at $330 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $780 million by 2029. This growth highlights the region’s critical need for secure data storage solutions.

Spirion’s advanced Sensitive Data Platform (SDP) allows organisations to manage their data more effectively while ensuring compliance with various regulations. 

Coppins emphasised, “Spirion now offers this critical capability for any sensitive data-related initiative regardless of industry and geographic location.” 

By establishing a local presence, Spirion enhances its service offerings and reinforces its dedication to supporting customers with tailored solutions that address specific regulatory requirements.
