It has now emerged that over 2.5 billion cyber-attacks targeting various systems in the country were carried out between January and March of 2025.
The shocking details are contained in the Cyber Shujaa Industry Report 2025, which further reveals a dangerous shortage of trained experts to defend the country's systems.
According to the report, universities in the country are only producing an average of 1,500 graduates in the cybersecurity space against 45,000 jobs available.
Even more worrying, the report shows, is that most university graduates in the sector lack the skills demanded by industry.
