In recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Digicel Business and Symptai are offering a complimentary dark web scan to Caribbean businesses. Until November 21, 2025, businesses can take advantage of this free offer to uncover any data that may already be at risk and act before it’s too late.
Cybercrime is a growing threat, and the Caribbean is often seen as an easy target due to a shortage of local expertise and less focus on proactive protection. As the region rapidly embraces digital transformation, from online banking and e-government services to remote work and e-learning, it faces both tremendous opportunities and heightened risks.
Data breaches now cost an average of US$4.88 million globally, often involving customer data and human errors such as phishing, misconfigured devices or compromised credentials. By detecting exposure early, businesses can take proactive steps to protect customer trust, secure critical systems, and reduce the impact of cyber threats before they escalate.
Against this backdrop, this initiative asks a critical question: “What if your organisation’s data is already on the dark web—how would you know?”
“No organisation can compete or achieve sustained growth if it cannot protect its data,” said Marlon Cooper, CEO of Symptai. “Cybersecurity is now inseparable from business strategy. When executives put security at the core of their plans, they’re safeguarding trust, strengthening competitiveness, and securing the region’s long-term economic future.”
“At Digicel Business, we are committed to empowering organizations to stay resilient, protect their data, while continuing to operate safely,” said Liam Donnelly, Chief Business Officer at Digicel. “With our team of experts, supported by local knowledge and global partners, we bring world-class cybersecurity and data protection services to the region.”
“Cybersecurity can no longer be treated as an afterthought,” said Gerardo Rivera Menjivar, General Manager of Digicel Business at Digicel (T&T) Ltd. “With the average cost of a cyberattack reaching US$4.88 million, just twenty attacks in a year could move nearly US$100 million that could have been invested into expansion efforts and technological advancement into recovery undertakings. That’s not just a company problem—it’s a national and economic one. When businesses invest in protection, they’re safeguarding growth, jobs, and the digital future of the country and by extension, the region.”
With the recent partnership between Digicel Business and Symptai, organizations across the region now benefit from a single, unified team — making it easier than ever to access a comprehensive suite of ICT, cybersecurity, data privacy, and protection services. From 24/7/365 SOC monitoring and endpoint protection to managed firewalls, consultancy, and penetration testing, this partnership delivers the trusted solutions businesses of every size need to safeguard their data, systems, and operations.
