LAGOS, NIGERIA — ESET Nigeria joined the Lagos State Civil Service Commission Career Week 2026 to advance the conversation around cybersecurity, digital transformation and the resilience of public-sector institutions. The Career Week, organized around the theme of driving business process automation in Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) within the Lagos State public service, provided a platform for conversations around the changing nature of work and the importanc

AI scams are now hyper-realistic. But there’s one simple way to see through them. AI voice scams are no longer as niche as they once were. The technology is both cheap and convincing: a worrying combination that has lowered the barrier to entry for would-be scammers. According to a Hiya report from March, one-in-four Americans say they’ve received a deepfake voice call in the past 12 months. A further quarter (24%) say they can’t tell the difference. The same study reveals th

LAGOS, NIGERIA — 8 September 2026 A recently reported incident involving rogue AI agents taking control of a German programming website highlights a growing cybersecurity concern: AI systems are moving beyond generating information and increasingly have the ability to act, coordinate and adapt with limited human oversight. According to research reported by Reuters, a swarm of AI agents hijacked DseWiki, a German-language programming wiki, in May and carried out more than 15,0

In the era of instant communication and remote approvals, business email compromise shows how quickly routine processes can become attack paths. With Business Email Compromise (BEC), attackers impersonate or take over a trusted identity to trick victims into sending money, credentials, or sensitive information to an unauthorized recipient. It can be especially difficult to detect, as attackers can compromise legitimate inboxes or phone numbers, spoof addresses, identities, or

AI gives security teams more speed and scale, but not a free pass on the basics. Security teams use artificial intelligence (AI) to sift through huge volumes of telemetry, spot activity that deserves attention, and make investigations more efficient. At the same time, cybercriminals are experimenting with many of the same technologies to improve phishing campaigns, automate fraud, and increase the scale of their operations. That creates a lot of confusion. Some headlines por

Don't panic if you spot an illegally created image or video of you online – there are ways to request its removal Tackling deepfakes has become something of a common cause across the political spectrum, in America and elsewhere. That's down in part to the fact these fabricated videos and images are becoming both more commonplace and realistic. Thanks to generative AI (GenAI) tools, it's extremely quick, cheap and easy to make fake media impersonating a real person. While some

Don’t panic, chances are that you will restore your account. But be aware of account recovery scams. If your account has been hacked, go to instagram.com/hacked, enter your details and request a login or security code sent to your email address or phone number. As soon as you’re logged in, change your password, secure your linked Facebook account, and don’t pay anyone promising instant account recovery. We live so much of our lives online these days that our social media prof

It’s getting cheaper and easier for cybercriminals to research potential victims. Here’s what’s still in your control. AI is changing the threat landscape, one model at a time. The pace at which the technology is evolving means activities that once took a skilled cybercriminal several hours or even days to achieve can now be done in a fraction of that time by someone with little or no prior knowledge. This matters, because it’s lowering the barrier to entry for cybercriminals

Network security forms the bedrock of strong cybersecurity. The traditional network perimeter is gone. As organizations embrace cloud services, hybrid work and connected devices, network security has evolved from protecting a fixed boundary to securing connections everywhere. Network security protects the infrastructure, services and data that move across a network. It works alongside endpoint, identity and application security to defend the systems connected to that network.
