Chuks Udensi, MD/CEO Infodata,Nigeria stated this at ‘the human point story: Reinventing Cybersecurity conference’ organized by Infodata and Forcepoint held in Lagos.

According to him, “Infodata is partnering with Forcepoint to provide IT solutions to all types of industries in the country, like financial services providers, telecommunications, oil and gas and so on.

“So the solutions are quite broad and they consolidate these solutions to be able to provide cybersecurity solutions for web, emails, DLP and so on.

“So what Infodata has done is to partner with them to deliver these solutions to the local market.”

Udensi emphasized that we can check the prevalence of cyber security challenges as being witnessed in Nigeria today by deploying solutions like Forcepoint to enable us identify and proactively mitigate some of these incidences.

He further revealed that Ransomeware is expected to evolve in 2018 and beyond more than it already has now.

He added that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will take a bit of the cybersecurity burden and that the IoT and Serverless apps will increase consumer vulnerability.
