INEC, responsible for conducting elections in Nigeria, experienced a data breach where voter registration data was compromised. This incident raised concerns about the security of sensitive voter information.

Nigerian Navy Website Defacement:

The official website of the Nigerian Navy was defaced by hackers who replaced the original content with unauthorized messages. This incident highlighted the need for robust security measures to protect critical government websites from unauthorized access.

Return on Investment

Here’s why our exclusive program with Christian Junior, the international cybersecurity strategist, is imperative for every modern Nigerian CEO, C-Suite or Senior Management:

Improved Reputation

Good cybersecurity strategies can promote customer trust, enhance the reputation of a business and open up new commercial opportunities.

Improved Competitive Advantage

Gain competitive advantage by planning ahead for all possible scenarios to ensure your business can withstand or recover from any cyber attack. Good security can be an enabler for a thriving business: you will be protecting your assets, your reputation, your customers, and your peace of mind.

Reduced costs

The world lost $945bn to Cybercrime in 2020. Businesses can save money by adopting an efficient risk management “preventive” approach – plan, implement and review rather than a more expensive “reactive” approach in the aftermath of an attack.

Tailored to Nigeria’s Unique Landscape

While global insights are essential, understanding how they map onto our unique Nigerian context is crucial. Our programme delves into both global and local cyber threats, ensuring you’re equipped to protect your enterprise on all fronts.

Comprehensive Approach

From identifying digital assets to understanding the ROI of risk management, our agenda ensures that you’re not just aware, but prepared and proactive in all areas of digital risk management.

Engage with an International Expert

Christian Junior brings a wealth of global knowledge and experience. Benefit from his insights tailored to the Nigerian context, ensuring your strategies are both globally informed and locally relevant.

Networking with Peers

Share experiences, concerns, and solutions with fellow CEOs and top-tier leaders. This event is a rare confluence of Nigeria’s business leadership, offering invaluable networking opportunities.

Governance, Risk, & Compliance (GRC)

Seamlessly weave risk management into your governance fabric. The stakes have never been higher. Ensure that you, as a modern Nigerian CEO, are not just part of the conversation but leading it.

Interactive Q&A
