Case Study: Kalahari Resorts & Conventions achieves centralized, streamlined cybersecurity and privacy compliance with Apptega

How Apptega Transforms Cybersecurity & Privacy Compliance Management for Internal & External Protections

Kalahari Resorts & Conventions, a full‑service vacation destination company, was struggling to manage multiple cybersecurity, privacy, and financial compliance frameworks (PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, etc.) across its properties with a very small security team relying on spreadsheets and manual processes. The organization selected Apptega’s cybersecurity and compliance management platform to centralize visibility, reduce manual overhead, and better protect both company and guest data.

Apptega delivered a single dashboard, document repository, task automation, cross‑mapping (Harmony) and a custom framework for financial audits, enabling Kalahari to assign remediation tasks, produce executive reports, and set clear vendor requirements. The outcome: faster, simpler audits and vendor management, elimination of duplicate work (harmonizing HIPAA and PCI reduced subcontrols from 322 to 263 — an 18% overhead reduction), shortened audit cycles, and measurable time savings for the security team.
