Abstract

There is a widespread misconception that only huge organizations require cyber security because they run the danger of cyber-attacks and data breaches. We erroneously believe that because we are merely low profile individuals or modestly sized businesses, we are protected. This is totally untrue because everybody with internet access is vulnerable to a cyber-attack. Whether large, medium, or small, all organizations and businesses are susceptible to cyber dangers. In Nigeria Cyber security is covered majorly by the Cybercrimes Act 20152 and NITDA regulations.
