Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Minister of Social Development Sisisi Tolashe said she is confident in the fraud and corruption prevention systems of the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA).<\/p>\n

The agency has added several security measures to ensure all rightful beneficiaries receive their financial grant.<\/p>\n

Tolashe said recipients must enrol in their biometric systems, which form part of their flagship initiatives.<\/p>\n

Earlier in 2025, SASSA was under fire over a chaotic grant verification process that left many frustrated.<\/p>\n

The agency has been attempting to implement security measures to prevent fraudulent activities.<\/p>\n

This follows the discovery made by two Stellenbosch students who had taken note of major vulnerabilities in the system.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Tolashe said she is aware of the agency\u2019s tainted image, but they are working on addressing the myriad of issues.<\/p>\n
