Download or read book Cybersecurity in Nigeria written by Aamo Iorliam and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the use of digital surveillance for detecting, investigating and interpreting fraud associated with critical cyberinfrastructures in Nigeria, as it is well known that the country’s cyberspace and cyberinfrastructures are very porous, leaving too much room for cyber-attackers to freely operate. In 2017, there were 3,500 successful cyber-attacks on Nigerian cyberspace, which led to the country losing an estimated 450 million dollars. These cybercrimes are hampering Nigeria’s digital economy, and also help to explain why many Nigerians remain skeptical about Internet marketing and online transactions. If sensitive conversations using digital devices are not well monitored, Nigeria will be vulnerable to cyber-warfare, and its digital economy, military intelligence, and related sensitive industries will also suffer. The Nigerian Army Cyber Warfare Command was established in 2018 in order to combat terrorism, banditry, and other attacks by criminal groups in Nigeria. However, there remains an urgent need to produce digital surveillance software to help law enforcement agencies in Nigeria to detect and prevent these digitally facilitated crimes. The monitoring of Nigeria’s cyberspace and cyberinfrastructure has become imperative, given that the rate of criminal activities using technology has increased tremendously. In this regard, digital surveillance includes both passive forensic investigations (where an attack has already occurred) and active forensic investigations (real-time investigations that track attackers). In addition to reviewing the latest mobile device forensics, this book covers natural laws (Benford’s Law and Zipf’s Law) for network traffic analysis, mobile forensic tools, and digital surveillance software (e.g., A-BOT). It offers valuable insights into how digital surveillance software can be used to detect and prevent digitally facilitated crimes in Nigeria, and highlights the benefits of adopting digital surveillance software in Nigeria and other countries facing the same issues.
Download or read book The Rule of Law Collective Security and Governance in Nigeria written by Hassan Omolowo and published by Volume. This book was released on 2019-05-17 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "THE RULE OF LAW AND COLLECTIVE SECURITY IN NIGERIA" is in two volumes. Volume one focuses attention on collective physical security and various crimes while volume two highlights the modalities for attaining collective democratic, political, socio-economic, environmental, familiar, international and Spiritual security; and collective governance in the country. The book generally considers the role of the Rule of Law as the engine room of participatory democracy and collective governance in Nigeria. Collective governance constitutes the driving force of Collective Security that encompasses physical, legal, political, democratic, social, environmental, informational, familiar, and global forms of security. This book highlights the importance of collective involvement in governance by all Nigerians under an atmosphere of unity in diversity as the pre-requisite to the attainment of world-power status by the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is hoped that the book will awaken in every Nigerian the consciousness of patriotism, volunteer service, and inner Spiritual awakening that serves as the basis for the attainment of successful collective governance and security in Nigeria.

Download or read book Towards Reforming the Legal Framework for Secured Transactions in Nigeria written by Chima Williams Iheme and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a valuable guide to one of the most challenging areas of commercial law, now frequently referred to as secured transactions, with a focus on Nigerian, Canadian and United States perspectives. A debtor’s ability to provide collateral influences not only the cost of the money borrowed, but also in many cases, whether secured lenders are willing to offer credit at all. The book proposes that increasing access to, and indeed, lowering the cost of credit could tremendously boost economic development, while at the same time arguing that this would best be achieved if the legal framework for secured transactions in Nigeria, and of course, any other country with similar experiences, were designed to allow the use of personal property and fixtures to secure credit. Similarly, the creation, priority, perfection, and enforcement of security interests in personal property should be simplified and supported by a framework that ensures that neither the interests of secured lenders nor debtors are hampered, so as to guarantee the continuous availability of affordable credit as well as debtors’ willingness to borrow and do business. The book further argues that in addition to the obvious preference for real property over personal property by secured lenders due to the unreformed secured-transactions legal framework in Nigeria, its compartmentalized nature has also resulted in unpredictability in commerce and the concomitant effects of poor access to credit. Through the comparative research conducted in this book utilizing the UCC Article 9 and Ontario PPSA as benchmarks, the author provides reformers with a repository of tested secured-transactions law solutions, which law reformers in the Commonwealth countries in Africa and beyond, as well as the business community will find valuable in dealing with issues that stem from secured transactions.

Download or read book Security and Law written by Charlotte Ducuing and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Security and law against the backdrop of technological development.Few people doubt the importance of the security of a state, its society and its organizations, institutions and individuals, as an unconditional basis for personal and societal flourishing. Equally, few people would deny being concerned by the often occurring conflicts between security and other values and fundamental freedoms and rights, such as individual autonomy or privacy for example. While the search for a balance between these public values is far from new, ICT and data-driven technologies have undoubtedly given it a new impulse. These technologies have a complicated and multifarious relationship with security.This book combines theoretical discussions of the concepts at stake and case studies following the relevant developments of ICT and data-driven technologies. Part I sets the scene by considering definitions of security. Part II questions whether and, if so, to what extent the law has been able to regulate the use of ICT and datadriven technologies as a means to maintain, protect or raise security, in search of a balance between security and other public values, such as privacy and equality. Part III investigates the regulatory means that can be leveraged by the law-maker in attempts to secure products, organizations or entities in a technological and multiactor environment. Lastly, Part IV, discusses typical international and national aspects of ICT, security and the law.

Download or read book Law and Creditor Protection in Nigeria written by Onamson, Friday Okafor and published by Malthouse Press. This book was released on 2017-08-08 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examined here are the legal and practical reasons for the inefficiency of the legal framework of creditor protection in Nigeria. This is amply justified considering the critical role of credit in the promotion of economic growth and development and also bearing in mind the near calamitous consequences the 2009 financial crisis unleashed not only among Nigerian banks and financial institutions, and in the international financial system. The latter nearly led to socioeconomic catastrophe in Nigeria, as well as globally. It is hoped that book is found useful by government, policy makers, academics, corporate financial experts, investment bankers and other stakeholders to initiate and implement efficient policy actions to protect creditors in order to sustain the flow of credit, the engine of any economy.
Download or read book The Nigerian Internet Law written by Akinkunmi Akinwunmi and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet has transformed the world as we know it. It has permeated virtually all aspect of human actions. It has made it easier to communicate, network, share contents and close transactions globally. The legal system is not left out, as the law must now take into consideration online activities which have real-world consequences. The Nigerian Internet Law is a ground-breaking work, exploring what is mostly uncharted territory in the Nigerian legal system. It provides a legal perspective on internet activities based on laws, regulations, judicial decisions, and global development.This book considers the history of the internet, its usage and penetration in Nigeria. It examines internet-related issues such as; cyberattacks, fraud, bullying, stalking, squatting, racism, terrorism, electronic signature, identity theft, data protection, net neutrality, and social media. It contains a comprehensive discussion on civil and criminal liabilities for online activities.Besides, it captures the role of key government personnel and agencies such as; the Attorney General of the Federation, Office of the National Security Adviser, Central Bank of Nigeria, National Information Technology Development Agency, and Nigerian Communications Commission in ensuring cybersecurity.This book elaborates on intellectual property viz-a-viz the protection of internet and software elements. For investors, it provides a guide to investing in eCommerce, FinTech and internet services in Nigeria.REVIEWSThis is a very important project. The book should be a very valuable resource for lawyers, policymakers, internet investors and entrepreneurs - Professor James Dempsey, Executive Director, Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, UC Berkeley School of Law. There is something in this book for everyone. It is well written, detailed, easy to understand, adequately organised, and immensely practical. I congratulate Akinkunmi on this giant stride - Adédèjì Ọlọ́wẹ̀, CEO, Trium Networks LimitedThe Nigerian Internet Law couldn't have been written at a better time. At a time where the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is aggressively prosecuting several internet scams perpetrated by Nigerians including Business Email Compromise (BEC) and romance scams, it is of great benefit to have a Nigerian legal resource that can be referenced. The book sheds light on Nigeria's position on cybercrimes, and an opportunity to question if our laws regulating internet scams are sufficient, or what we need is a more diligent prosecution and execution of the extant laws to address the rise in internet scams. Akinkunmi has written the book needed for the times we live in - Odunoluwa Longe, Co-founder, The Longe Practice. In Nigeria, addressing legal and practical issues in a largely uncharted, fastchanging and complicated subject as Internet law could be overwhelming. Hence, this outstanding effort by Akinkunmi Akinwunmi is a timely step in the right direction, bringing clarity to Nigeria's Internet law. I am glad that Akinkunmi has written this book, drawing on his vast knowledge and diverse experience. For many, I have no doubt that reading this book will be a great resource in understanding the rudiments of Internet Law in Nigeria and in proffering solutions to the many attendant challenges - Rotimi Ogunyemi, 1st Vice - Chairman, Nigerian Bar Association - Section on Business Law ICT Committee. In my opinion, this book is readily the most authoritative and instructive resource on internet law in Nigeria. It displays a powerful combination of the thoughtfulness, clarity, and scholarship in discussing the complexities of internet law. I am absolutely excited about the monumental contribution this book will make to legal education and the body of knowledge in Nigeria. This invaluable resource should have a place of honour in every library - Dayo Ogunyemi, Fellow, Canadian Institute of Resources Law.
Download or read book Security Challenges and Management in Modern Nigeria written by Abimbola Adesoji and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays explores the critical and fluid nature of security challenges that have plagued Nigeria since colonial times. Insecurity in diverse forms remains the bane of growth and progressive development in the country, and has the capability to derail a society no matter how sophisticated. What has generated insecurity at the macro- and micro-levels? How has insecurity been tackled? Why have security challenges escalated particularly in the post-independence period? What lessons could be learnt from the way security matters have been (mis)handled in the past? This volume presents chapters on the historical roots and antecedents of security challenges, and considers the nexus between the economy, political leadership and development, and its impacts on security in modern Nigeria. It also explores the effectiveness of the strategies employed to address security challenges, and discusses why some security challenges have lingered.
Download or read book Nigeria written by John Campbell and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigeria, the United States’ most important strategic partner in West Africa, is in grave trouble. While Nigerians often claim they are masters of dancing on the brink without falling off, the disastrous administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, the radical Islamic insurrection Boko Haram, and escalating violence in the delta and the north may finally provide the impetus that pushes it into the abyss of state failure. In this thoroughly updated edition, John Campbellexplores Nigeria’s post-colonial history and presents a nuanced explanation of the events and conditions that have carried this complex, dynamic, and very troubled giant to the edge. Central to his analysis are the oil wealth, endemic corruption, and elite competition that have undermined Nigeria’s nascent democratic institutions and alienated an increasingly impoverished population. However, state failure is not inevitable, nor is it in the interest of the United States. Campbell provides concrete new policy options that would not only allow the United States to help Nigeria avoid state failure but also to play a positive role in Nigeria’s political, social, and economic development.
Download or read book Colonial Systems of Control written by Viviane Saleh-Hanna and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2008-04-18 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering book on prisons in West Africa, Colonial Systems of Control: Criminal Justice in Nigeria is the first comprehensive presentation of life inside a West African prison. Chapters by prisoners inside Kirikiri maximum security prison in Lagos, Nigeria are published alongside chapters by scholars and activists. While prisoners document the daily realities and struggles of life inside a Nigerian prison, scholar and human rights activist Viviane Saleh-Hanna provides historical, political, and academic contexts and analyses of the penal system in Nigeria. The European penal models and institutions imported to Nigeria during colonialism are exposed as intrinsically incoherent with the community-based conflict-resolution principles of most African social structures and justice models. This book presents the realities of imprisonment in Nigeria while contextualizing the colonial legacies that have resulted in the inhumane brutalities that are endured on a daily basis. Keywords: Nigeria, West Africa, penal system, maximum-security prison. Published in English.
