More than 40 security officials across 15 Nigerian Security Agencies gathered under one roof in Abuja last week, for the Global Accelerex Cyber Crime Seminar for Nigeria’s Security Agencies.

The seminar, which was hailed by delegates as impactful in terms of the relevant sessions and quality of the presentations, provided an unparalleled platform for participants to share knowledge on current trends in Cyber Crime and proactive ways to combat them.

From the Nigerian Armed Forces to the Department of Space Administration, from the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency to the Nigerian Police, delegates exchanged experiences and gained further insight into tackling online crime.

The seminar afforded attendees an opportunity to learn the latest in Cyber Crime Trends and Mitigation Techniques, Cyber Security Art and Science, Defensive Strategies, Security Operations Centre (SOC), Risk Management and Penetration Testing.

Indeed, the skill of officials was enhanced.

In attendance were top ranking officials, including Commodore Hamza Ibrahim, who represented the Nigerian Navy.

He commented that, “Cyber Security is about process, technology and people.

The human element must be constantly strengthened and nurtured through continuous training and education.

This seminar is therefore an avenue to build capacity and create awareness, which is critical to the improvement of security operations”.
