about technova
Software and security shouldn't be two different vendors.
Technova Kenya was founded on a simple frustration: development teams ship fast, security teams find problems late, and the gap between them is where breaches happen. We closed that gap by building both disciplines into one team.
our approach
Secure by design, not by accident
Security reviews don't happen after launch — they happen during design, during code review, and again before every release. It's slower in week one and far faster by month six, because we're not retrofitting fixes into production code.
who we work with
Businesses that can't afford downtime
From fintechs and SACCOs to e-commerce platforms and NGOs handling sensitive data, we work with organisations across Kenya and East Africa for whom a breach or an outage isn't just embarrassing — it's existential.
what we value
Three principles behind every engagement.
Transparency over theatre
No padded reports. You get the real findings, prioritised by actual risk, with plain explanations of impact.
Ownership, not handoffs
The engineers who build your system are the same ones who secure and support it. Nothing gets lost in translation.
Built for the long run
We write code and architecture we're willing to maintain in three years, not just demo today.
