Ceravoid

From 23rd December to 6th January, the Ceravoid office will be locked up tight 🔒 – not for security reasons (we’ve got that covered), but because we’ll be fully committed to the serious business of festive cheer (and perfecting the fine art of “out of office” mode). 🍧 While our doors may be shut, our commitment to delivering unmatched intelligence and insights will pick up right where we left off in 2025. Wishing all our clients, partners, and friends a joyful holiday season and a prosperous New Year! 🍾 🥂 We’ll be back in 2025, recharged, refocused, and ready to tackle the new year with the same precision and dedication you’ve come to expect. #GoneFishing #OutOfOffice #HappyHolidays #SeeYouIn2025 #FestiveSeason

From the Field to the Boardroom: Careers that Lead to Corporate Security/Intelligence 🛡️ Corporate security is an exciting and rewarding sector where professionals from diverse backgrounds converge to safeguard businesses, people, and assets. Many who enter this field bring valuable skills honed in traditional security roles. Here's how their expertise translates into corporate security- Key pathways into corporate security: 1️⃣ Law Enforcement -Former police officers excel in corporate security roles thanks to their investigative expertise, knowledge of criminal behaviour, and ability to manage crises. -Skills like conducting background checks, interviewing, and assessing threats align seamlessly with corporate risk management and internal investigations. 2️⃣ Military/Defence -Veterans of the armed forces bring leadership, strategic thinking, and experience managing high-stakes operations. -Their discipline and ability to adapt to evolving threats make them ideal for roles like security directors, risk consultants, or crisis management specialists. 3️⃣ Intelligence Agencies -Intelligence operatives and analysts transition smoothly into roles requiring discretion, analytical thinking, and a deep understanding of threat landscapes. -Corporate security benefits from their skills in data gathering, pattern recognition, and anticipating risks before they materialise. 4️⃣ Cybersecurity Professionals -Cybersecurity experts bring critical technical skills that help safeguard corporate systems from digital threats. -Whether their experience is from private tech roles, independent consultancy, or self-taught expertise, they contribute to corporate security by fortifying digital infrastructure, mitigating risks, and ensuring compliance. 5️⃣ Emergency Services -Paramedics, firefighters, and emergency planners possess invaluable crisis management experience and the ability to remain calm under pressure. -These skills translate to roles in corporate emergency response planning, safety training, and disaster recovery coordination. 6️⃣ Private Security Contractors -Those with experience in executive protection or high-risk assignments bring a unique understanding of safeguarding individuals and assets. -In corporate settings, they often oversee access control, physical security, and VIP protection.

Honouring the Day of Reconciliation Today, South Africa observes the Day of Reconciliation, a day deeply rooted in our nation’s history and a cornerstone of our democratic journey. This public holiday was introduced in 1995 to foster unity and healing in a country once divided by apartheid. The date, 16 December, holds historical significance for multiple communities: ▪️ For Afrikaners, it marks the anniversary of the Battle of Blood River in 1838, where the Voortrekkers pledged a vow to God and secured victory. ▪️ For liberation movements, it honours Umkhonto we Sizwe’s founding in 1961, the armed wing of the ANC, which symbolised the fight against oppression. The Day of Reconciliation serves as a reminder of our progress toward a more inclusive and united South Africa. It encourages us to reflect on our shared past and embrace a future where reconciliation and respect guide us forward. As we celebrate this day, let us continue to nurture the values of understanding, compassion, and unity that bring us closer as a nation. 🌟 #DayOfReconciliation #SouthAfrica

📢 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence South Africa faces a staggering epidemic of gender-based violence (GBV). Here are some critical insights: 🔴 5 times the global average: South Africa's GBV rate far exceeds international norms. (UNICEF) 🔴 Every 3 hours: A woman is murdered in South Africa, often by someone she knows. (Human Rights Watch) 🔴 Reported sexual assault cases: Over 41,000 cases were reported between April 2022 and March 2023. Yet, many more remain unreported due to stigma and fear. (SAPS) Despite these grim figures, organisations and activists are working tirelessly to support survivors and prevent violence. Initiatives such as the National Strategic Plan on Gender-Based Violence and Femicide aim to improve legal protections, expand shelters, and address systemic issues We at C2 Capabilities stand in solidarity with survivors and advocates. Join us in driving awareness, supporting meaningful action, and saying no to GBV. #16DaysOfActivism #EndGBV #StopViolence #NoToGBV #HumanRightsForAll #ProtectWomen #SupportSurvivors #SafeSouthAfrica
