Aisha Buhari seeks Nigerians’ forgiveness over insecurity in the country

How a Data Breach Could Sink an SME

Sourced from CSO. When it comes to reporting on cybercrime, we tend to only come across stories impacting major companies or industries. Apart from the obvious reputational damage, we don’t really grasp the consequences of something like a data breach on a company and its customers. There are no headline articles about the troubles that emerge in the wake of a data breach, some of which literally grind small and medium enterprises (SMEs) into the ground. The media focuses on corporate giants as the only victims of cybercrime and lulls us into a false reality where data breaches seem to happen mostly to corporate behemoths but not the small or medium size business owners. Cybercriminals, who are often well-organised and well-resourced, launch constant attacks on data targets, probing for th...

PDP Confirms Payment of Millions to NWC Members

Tweet Tweet Share Whatsapp reddit The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has confirmed the payment of money to some members of its National Working Committee (NWC). The party, however, said it was not a bribe to the members. This was made known in a statement by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, on Thursday. The statement is in reaction to the refund of over N120 million by four members of the NWC. PREMIUM TIMES reported how the members in a letter to the national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, returned different sums ranging from N28 million to N36 million. They said it became necessary to return the money after a backlash from the media accusing them of taking bribes. .ue9d89bca8d238b26f1b9532ceb3265da { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; padding-bottom:1em!...

Reno Omokri reveal Peter Obi Greatest Mistake

Tweet Tweet Share Whatsapp reddit He said The greatest mistake Peter Obi made was getting high on app based polls that predict victory for him. In case you do not know what app based means, it simply means the pollsters behind the poll did it on an app, like Twitter or survey monkey. Why does this matter? Because, Nigeria has a disproportionately higher number of Southerners than Northerners on social media. Remember that English is used for most apps, which favours Southerners. That is why Northern Nigerian participation on Facebook was minimal, until Facebook integrated Hausa into its app in September of 2016, after Mark Zuckerberg’s August 2016 visit to Nigeria. Other apps have yet to follow suit. .ud2c6247b7d43f6579b82d9a67ff299d1 { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; pa...
