South Africa ranked 68th out of 110 countries, but placed first among the 18 African countries surveyed.
Denmark took the top position in the index for the second year in a row, and the new overall top ten has changed considerably, with a new entrant, South Korea, taking the second spot, ahead of Finland and Israel . The United States jumped to the 5th position from the 22nd spot the year before, with significant improvements in internet quality and e-infrastructure.
“Digital opportunities have proved to be more important than ever during the COVID-19 crisis, stressing the importance for every country to ensure fully remote operational capacities for their economies,” Vytautas Kaziukonis, CEO of Surfshark, says.
