Nigeria Cybersecurity Industry Overview
The Nigerian cybersecurity market is semi-consolidated as several key players and new entrants form a competitive landscape, accounting for a substantial market share. In addition, strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and new launches of products/technologies are increasing rivalry in the market.
- June 2024: Flutterwave, Africa's premier payments technology firm, announced a collaboration with Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to spearhead the creation of a cutting-edge Cybercrime Research Center. This joint effort is designed to bolster the nation's cybersecurity, combat online crimes, and offer valuable opportunities to Nigeria's youth.
- April 2024: SHELT, a prominent cybersecurity solutions provider, unveiled its latest business unit in Nigeria—SHELT System Integration (SHELT SI). With a robust track record of six years, particularly in bolstering Nigeria's financial, telecom, and governmental sectors, SHELT is poised to spearhead Nigeria's digital evolution. This new business unit will operate under Cyber Immune Limited, a subsidiary of SHELT.
