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
