The Nigeria Cybersecurity Summit is now Fortify Nigeria

Building a Secure Digital Future

Lagos, Nigeria 12–13 April 2027

Join us to hear the global leaders of cybersecurity speak about the best strategies for a secure digital future.

Event Overview

Fortify Nigeria (previously the Nigeria Cybersecurity Summit) is a gathering of CISOs from leading enterprises, cybersecurity experts and elite ethical hackers from across the West African region. We aim to enable the region to strengthen its defences and strategies against the sea of cyber attacks. With billions of dollars lost to cybercrime every year, resilience in cybersecurity strategy is imperative.

As the world shifts to digital, organisations face countless new threats. Our expert speakers and panellists will discuss every aspect of information security and the threats we face in an evolving landscape.

Fortify Nigeria is a C-level platform focused on global trends and disruptions, and on how organisations can respond: from AI and agentic AI security, identity, and cloud and supply chain security to ransomware, cyber-enabled fraud, data privacy, critical infrastructure and leadership.

Let's not just talk about change; let's make it happen!
