LAUTECH Has Highest Concentration Of Cyber Criminals, Says DSS (33847 Views)

​A dearth of experts in cybersecurity and technology is leaving Nigeria vulnerable to cybercrimes, warns the Department for State Security Service (DSS).

DSS says internet fraud is more prevalent in the south west, especially Lagos, Ogun and Oyo.

Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) is considered to have the highest concentration of cyber criminals and in the country.

Deputy-Director of the DSS in-charge of Security in Anambra state, Mr.Yekini Ishola, made the disclosure while presenting a paper on cyber crimes and the way out at a two-day annual security seminar organised by the Security Department of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, tagged "Developing Technological Strategy Towards Crime Reduction In Tertiary Institution."

He said cyber crimes were not committed by an individual, but a network of criminal activities perpetrated by syndicates using what he referred to as identity theft, hacking, stocking, malicious software and other dubious means to gain access into personal information and details.

"As a result of dearth of hitech cyber security apparatus in the country, it could be rather difficult to fight cyber crimes to a standstill. Collective responsibility is therefore required to track cyber fraudsters and their cronies," he stressed.

Identifying investigation and intelligence gathering as ways perpetrators of cyber crimes could be nailed, the security expert however cautioned the public to desist from disclosing sensitive personal information like Bank Verification Numbers, ATM pin numbers, s and phone numbers to unknown persons.

That lautech is not a university at all. They lead the way in prostitution and 419. To cap it up, they have a very slow calendar and can go on strike at anytime. If you have any child, ward or sibling applying for that school please tell him not to because their students are always very dull too. They don't know anything.

It is quite pathetic that students don't read their books these days.



Visit campuses across the country..... Most of the students are into cyber crimes, invading banks for money transfer slips daily.

Lautech Students are far technologically ahead of our security agencies.

The problem is that the security agencies are not equipped with the right personnel and intelligence to nip crimes like this in the bud. Hence, their investigations are Kickstarted by petitions and not discoveries.

The security agencies are reactionary and not precautionary but I don't blame them.

The cyber crime problem is way beyond LAUTECH

Also, strikes in LAUTECH have more to do with funding, made difficult by the refusal to increase fees. Education is not cheap.
