Henry’s assurance is coming following concerns about the security of the commission’s database.
Uche in a statement by the centre on Wednesday said the NPF-NCCC following the speculation swiftly conducted a forensic analysis on the database and found out that it was secure.
The NPF-NCCC boss was said to have stated this when the Director General/CEO of NIMC, Abisoye Coker-Odusote visited him in his office.
“We swiftly conducted profiling and analysis upon hearing concerns about the security of NIMC’s database. Our forensic analysis confirmed that the database is indeed secure,” Uche was quoted as saying.
Uche although said NIMC has a strong cyber security, he noted that his centre was ready to help strengthen the commission’s security.
He said, “Although NIMC’s protection is strong, we seek to provide an additional layer of security, which is the responsibility of the Nigeria Police Force to protect lives and properties, including our digital information infrastructure and that of the Federal Government and NIMC.”
Uche then urged Nigerians to report any cybercrime cases and related offences through the NPF-NCCC’s E-reporting portal, which provides a secure and convenient platform for citizens to report incidents and support the fight against cybercriminals.
The Director also extends his gratitude to the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun for his unwavering passion, resilience, and dedication to creating an enabling environment for the Cyber Hawks to effectively combat cybercriminals in Nigeria.
During the visit, the Director of NPF-NCCC showcased the Center’s state-of-the-art facilities, such as the OSINT Lab, Threat Response Lab, Network Analysis Lab, and Forensics Lab.
