“Securing Your Most Vulnerable and Valuable Personal Digital Assets”
The webinar brought together ICT professionals, academics, students, business owners, and technology enthusiasts to discuss practical strategies for protecting personal digital assets against the increasing wave of cyber threats and online attacks.

During the presentation, participants were introduced to the concept of Cyber First Aid, a practical, industry-based approach that empowers individuals to secure their digital identities, online accounts, financial information, and personal data before cyber incidents occur.
Key discussion areas included:

Speaking after the event, C.itp Anjorin, Ishaq O. Muhsin emphasized that:
“Cybersecurity is no longer the responsibility of IT professionals alone. Every individual who owns a smartphone, email account, social media profile, or online banking application has a responsibility to protect their digital assets. Awareness remains the first and strongest line of defence against cybercrime.”
The event reflects the Nigeria Computer Society’s continued commitment to promoting digital literacy, cybersecurity awareness, and professional development across Nigeria.
Special appreciation goes to the leadership of the Nigeria Computer Society (NCS), Ebonyi State Chapter, particularly the Chairman, Executive Committee, webinar organisers, moderators, and every participant whose active engagement contributed to the success of the programme.
