The South African Cyber Treaty Series 
By Arnold Pronto. It aims to provide a comprehensive, and up to date, list of treaties South Africa has entered into, with, where possible, links to full text versions placed on the internet, as well as to ratification information. It makes no attempt at covering bilateral agreements, focusing, instead, on multilateral conventions. The treaty series is based primarily on the United Nations Multilateral Treaties Deposited with the Secretary-General, and is arranged according to the categories found in the United Nations Treaty Series. Several additional topics, e.g. intellectual property and civil aviation, for which the United Nations does not act as depositary, have also been included.
