\t\t\t\t\tThe Lagos State Security Trust Fund\u2019s Campaign Against Crime, Cultism and Other Vices (LSSTF-CACCOV) has stressed the importance of staying safe in the digital age as it unveiled the July 2026 edition of its Cybersecurity Campaign, themed \u201cStaying Safe in a Digital World.\u201d\u00a0Scheduled to hold virtually on Saturday, July 18, 2026, at 7:00 p.m., the campaign will bring together cybersecurity experts, technology professionals, policy advocates, youths and members of the public to deepen conversations on online safety and responsible digital citizenship.
\n\u00a0The event, which will be streamed live on YouTube, aims to equip participants with practical knowledge and skills to navigate the increasingly complex digital environment safely.\u00a0As technology continues to shape commerce, education, governance and social interaction, digital security has become one of the defining challenges of the 21st century. A single careless click can expose individuals, businesses and even governments to devastating financial losses, phishing attacks, cyberbullying, misinformation, identity theft and other forms of cybercrime.
\nOrganisers noted that addressing these threats in a digitally driven economy such as Lagos requires sustained public awareness, improved digital literacy, innovative technological solutions and collective responsibility.\u00a0To encourage participation, organisers announced that active participants during the virtual event will receive over 1 terabyte of internet data to support their continued digital learning.
\nThe programme will be hosted by the State Coordinator of the LSSTF-CACCOV initiative, Dr Moses Oladimeji, who emphasised the growing importance of cybersecurity.\u201cIn today\u2019s interconnected world, security no longer begins and ends within a physical location. It extends into cyberspace, where billions of digital interactions occur every day. The ability to navigate the online space safely is now an essential life skill that serves as a critical safeguard,\u201d he said.
\nThe event will feature Oluwabamise Soile, Lead, Security Governance and Risk at Payaza, and Meshole Emmanuel, Head of Programmes and Outreaches, LSSTF-CACCOV, as keynote speakers.Participants are expected to benefit from expert presentations on emerging cyber threats, practical demonstrations of online safety practices, interactive question-and-answer sessions, networking opportunities, and access to cybersecurity resources, guides and digital tools.\u00a0The LSSTF-CACCOV initiative is championed by the Executive Secretary\/Chief Executive Officer of the Lagos State Security Trust Fund, Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan, who serves as its Grand Patron.\u00a0The campaign also enjoys the support of strategic partners, including the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), Executive Hotel & Suites, Aethelgard Global Limited, AccompliTech and Tormer, reflecting growing collaboration between the public and private sectors in strengthening cyber resilience.\u00a0The cybersecurity campaign represents another milestone in LSSTF-CACCOV\u2019s expanding preventive security strategy, which focuses on addressing the root causes of crime through education, advocacy and youth engagement.From anti-cultism campaigns in tertiary institutions to community sensitisation against drug abuse and crime, the initiative continues to broaden its interventions in response to emerging security challenges.\u00a0According to the organisers, the campaign is designed to raise an informed, vigilant and digitally responsible citizenry capable of navigating today\u2019s evolving digital landscape safely and responsibly.<\/p>\n
