Communication Genetics, a pioneer in Customer Communication Management, software intelligence and document management, today announced a strategic partnership with Veracode, a global leader in application risk management. The collaboration will deliver a new generation of solutions that align secure software development with the customer communication management, secure data storage, and workflows. The partnership will see Veracode continue to expand its existing presence in South Africa.

This partnership unites Communication Genetics’ technology-backed models of customer interaction with Veracode’s advanced platform for securing applications at every stage of the development lifecycle. Together, the companies will help organisations reduce human-driven vulnerabilities, enhance secure team communication, and foster cyber-resilient cultures.

“This partnership reflects a critical evolution in cybersecurity,” said Frank Heitmuller, Managing Director of Communication Genetics. “Organisations no longer just need secure information; they need secure people and processes. By integrating communication requirements and technology with Veracode’s application risk management platform, we’re empowering teams to think, act, and communicate more securely.”

Veracode’s mission has long been to secure the world’s software through automation, analytics, and developer-first tools. With this partnership, the company extends that mission into the human layer of cybersecurity, recognising that human performance is often the first line of defence and the greatest vulnerability.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Communication Genetics to secure customer communication and data,” said Michael Steinmetz, Senior Vice President of EMEA & APAC at Veracode. “Together, we’re enabling organisations to not only secure their applications, but also build a more resilient, cyber-aware workforce and way of communicating.”

Veracode’s partner programme provides solutions and services to get partners up and running straight away, with minimal impact to their existing business. The joint offering will focus initially on sectors where secure communication and secure data-sharing is mission-critical, including finance, government, and healthcare.
