According to Ethnos, “in an age when digital governance is becoming increasingly prevalent, cybersecurity emerges as a critical concern for governments worldwide, including Nigeria.”
“The incorporation of modern technologies has clearly increased the efficiency of government operations, but it has also introduced new dangers such as identity theft and phishing. As a result, there is an urgent need for comprehensive cybersecurity education and preparation.
It went on to say, “The Ethnos Cybersecurity Erudition Series aims to address these critical concerns by offering a forum for security experts and public-sector players to engage in instructive discussions and knowledge sharing.
“With the theme ‘Navigating Cybersecurity Risks: Strategies for Securing Your Digital Perimeters’, the event emphasized the importance of proactive measures in safeguarding against evolving cyber threats.”
