The dearth of impregnable cybersecurity is now weighing heavily on Nigeria’s progressive growth. Despite being Africa’s largest economy and one of the continent’s most connected populations, majority of the nation is not equipped to handle large-scale cyber-attacks.
Ranked among the top African countries for cybercrime and fifth globally, Nigeria in 2026 is witnessing an unprecedented surge in cyber threats targeting financial services, government infrastructure, telecom, and digital identity ecosystems. However, while bleeding as much as $500 million annually to cybercrime, the nation is making a swift transition towards integrating robust security measures which have led to a $1.2 billion cybersecurity and cloud protection market. Furthermore, the advent of improved cybersecurity regulations and the strengthening of Nigeria’s Cybercrime Act and Data Protection frameworks have given additional boost to the market.
Organised by Tradepass, the 3rd Edition of CyFrica will be one of the most important cybersecurity events in Nigeria in 2026, convening Nigeria’s cybersecurity community at Eko Convention Centre in Lagos on 8th October 2026. The event will welcome 350+ pre-qualified cybersecurity experts including Heads of Information Security, Risk, Compliance, Forensics and Cyber Law from top public and private companies.
Being one of the foremost cybersecurity conferences in Nigeria, CyFrica provides a platform for cybersecurity professionals, government representatives, C-suite executives and technology providers to exchange ideas, intel and solutions about the ever-changing threat landscape affecting Nigeria's future.
