\n The Lagos State Security Trust Fund\u2019s Campaign Against Crime, Cultism and Other Vices (LSSTF-CACCOV) has warned that cybercrime continues to pose a serious threat, resulting in devastating financial losses, phishing attacks, cyberbullying, misinformation, identity theft and other forms of online criminality.
\nThe organisation noted that as technology continues to drive commerce, education, governance and social interaction, digital security has become one of the defining challenges of the 21st century.
\nIn response to these growing challenges, LSSTF-CACCOV has unveiled the July 2026 edition of its Cybersecurity Campaign, scheduled to hold virtually on Saturday, July 18, 2026, to educate Nigerians on how to stay safe in the digital age.
\nAccording to the organisers, \u201cAs technology continues to govern the modern world of commerce, education, governance and social interaction, digital security has become a defining challenge for 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 cybercrime.
\n\u201cAddressing these threats in a digitally driven economy like Lagos demands sustained public awareness, digital literacy, technological solutions and collective responsibility. It is against this backdrop that LSSTF-CACCOV has unveiled its July 2026 Cybersecurity Campaign, themed \u2018Staying Safe in a Digital World.\u2019
\n\u201cScheduled to hold virtually on Saturday, July 18, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. (WAT), the campaign will bring together cybersecurity experts, technology professionals, policy advocates, youths and members of the general public to deepen conversations around online safety and responsible digital citizenship. The event will be streamed live on YouTube.
\n\u201cThe organisers also announced that active participants during the event will receive over one terabyte of internet data to support their continued digital learning.
\n\u201cThe event will be hosted by the State Coordinator of the LSSTF-CACCOV initiative, Dr. Moses Oladimeji.\u201d
\nSpeaking on the programme, Dr. Oladimeji said: \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, therefore, an essential life skill that provides a critical hedge against cyber threats.\u201d
\nThe event will feature Oluwabamise Soile, Lead, Security Governance and Risk at Payaza, alongside Meshole Emmanuel, Head of Programmes and Outreaches, LSSTF-CACCOV, as keynote speakers.
\nParticipants are expected to benefit from expert presentations on emerging cyber threats, practical demonstrations of online safety practices, interactive question-and-answer sessions, networking opportunities, as well as access to cybersecurity resources, guides and digital tools.
\nThe LSSTF-CACCOV initiative is championed by the Executive Secretary\/Chief Executive Officer of the Lagos State Security Trust Fund (LSSTF), Dr. Ayodele Ogunsan, who serves as its Grand Patron.
\nThe 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 promoting cyber resilience.
\nThe organisers said the cybersecurity programme 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.
\nFrom anti-cultism campaigns in tertiary institutions to community sensitisation against drug abuse and other crimes, the initiative continues to broaden its scope in response to emerging security realities.
\nAccording to the organisers, the LSSTF-CACCOV Cybersecurity Campaign is aimed at raising an informed, vigilant and digitally responsible citizenry.<\/p>\n
