Our Cybersecurity Services Include:

1. NDPR Compliance

With the Nigerian Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) in place, ensuring the security of your customers’ personal data has become a regulatory requirement. NDPR compliance protects your institution from potential data breaches and hefty fines while fostering customer trust.

Why It Matters:

Microfinance banks process and store sensitive customer data regularly.

Non-compliance with NDPR can result in severe penalties and damage to your reputation.

Let us help you align with NDPR guidelines, guaranteeing the confidentiality, integrity, and security of all customer information under your care.

2. Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT)

Cybercriminals are always on the lookout for weaknesses in IT systems. VAPT helps you stay one step ahead by identifying vulnerabilities and simulating potential attacks to test your system’s resilience.

Why It Matters:

Financial institutions are among the top targets for cyberattacks globally.

VAPT allows your bank to proactively address security gaps, reducing the risk of breaches that could disrupt operations or compromise customer data.

With VAPT, you can fortify your defenses and protect your institution from external and internal threats.

3. Cybersecurity Assessment and Reporting

Understanding your current cybersecurity posture is critical for making informed decisions about the safety of your IT infrastructure. Our cybersecurity assessment provides a detailed evaluation of your systems, while the reporting phase offers clear, actionable insights to strengthen your security framework.

Why It Matters:

A robust cybersecurity assessment ensures that your institution is protected against emerging threats.

It helps your bank remain compliant with regulatory expectations for proactive risk management.

By leveraging our expertise, your bank will gain a clear roadmap to enhanced cybersecurity readiness and resilience.

4. Cybersecurity Awareness Training Program

Human error remains one of the leading causes of security breaches. Equip your team with the knowledge to identify and respond to potential threats through our comprehensive cybersecurity awareness training program.

Why It Matters:

Employees are the first line of defense against cyber threats.

A well-trained workforce significantly reduces the risk of breaches caused by negligence or ignorance.

Our training program is designed to empower your team with practical knowledge, fostering a security-conscious culture within your institution.
