Last year we issued a call asking “Can we help you move your data sets?” to find potential use cases for our new data transfer service (see flyer).
We have since set up three Data Transfer Nodes (DTNs) in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria that are now available to the South African Research and Education community to assist in data transfer movement nationally and internationally as a pilot project on a trial basis.
If you would like to know more about this project, make use of these DTNs to transfer large datasets to and from your institution or know of a project that could benefit from utilising this service, please email engage@sanren.ac.za
For those that already completed our investigation survey, thank you for doing so, as this helped us motivate for the pilot project. Please do reach out to us again if you are still interested.

During 2017 the South African National Research Network (SANReN) initiated the Cyber Security Games project which was aimed at establishing the hosting of an information security student competition with an emphasis on network security. This resulted in the first Cyber Security Challenge 2017 being hosted at the CHPC National Conference 2017.
Building on the success and high interest of the Cyber Security Challenge 2017, SANReN is preparing to host the Cyber Security Challenge 2018 at the CHPC National Conference 2018.
