With the current cybersecurity posture in Nigeria, the conference will foster conversations about the current state of cybersecurity in the country(efraud, digital reforms, internet/mobile penetration within the country etc.) and ways to move forward.

Rotimi says the NaijaSecCon2019 will also help Nigerians and the country understand the need for cybersecurity education and awareness and professionals in the country.It will also educate Nigerians on the cyber security dangers lurking which can potentially cripple the economy and in turn affect key sectors in the country. NaijaSecCon2019 is set to educate and equip attendees with the necessary tools to building careers in cyber security and also to use this opportunity to put Nigeria on the cyber security map.

“This year, we also want to educate and equip attendees with the necessary tool to building careers in cybersecurity and we are using this opportunity to put Nigeria on the cybersecurity map”.

The children are also not left out as the NaijaSecCon team is ready to have some children attend the conference in a bid to expose them to the world of cybersecurity.

When asked what the attendee’s should look out for, Rotimi said “The attendee’s should look out for the technical demos, ethical hacking contest, lockpicking and crypto village, booze and bytes networking event, mentorship and collaboration, NaijaSecCon hiring list(job plugs) and of course the food.

The conference is set to have about 300 attendees this year and it is promises to be an informative and educative one.
