Director General of the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) Isa Pantami has said the 2019 general elections may be disrupted if adequate information technology security measures were not put in place.

He raised the alarm at the 10th annual conference organised by Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA), Abuja Chapter, yesterday.

Dr. Pantami said terrorists may disrupt the national elections by hacking into the voter registration database of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

“If proper IT security measures are not put in place, terrorists may disrupt the national elections by hacking into the INEC voter register database; they can disrupt the banking system by hacking into and taking over the Bank Verification Number (BVN) platform.
“They can critically disrupt the national economy by cyber-jacking the Treasury Single Account (TSA) software, and so on,” he said.
He, however, said the agency was developing a Nigerian government enterprise architecture dedicated to securing the country’s information technology systems.

“NITDA is developing a Nigerian Government Enterprise Architecture and a critical part of it was dedicated to the security of Information Technology systems.
“This section specifies what security measures should be in place while deploying IT systems in Public Institutions,” he added.

Those are political terrorists and we know who they are...

Thanks for the heads up though....

Enjoy my siggy

Thanks for the info.. Now submit the info to security agencies and feed us back on how security agencies will stop them.

Lemme go and pick my own nomination form also

Same way they were going to kill mesi in Russia 2018

Someone needs to tell this clown that the only election related terrorism Nigeria has ever experienced were the mass killings that happened after the 2011 elections when a certain dulllard wanted to make this country ungovernable simply because he was soundly dusted by a more popular candidate.

Stop distracting us with tales by moonlight as if you're competing with LIE MADhaMAD.

My mind flashing back to how much bubu budgeted for security officials for the 2019 elections..

BUBu must be amonq 'em oo

If you claim it can be done then, what stops them from doing it now?

I suspect they are just seeking software development contract.

Nigeria was ranked the Third most terrorised country in the world For a reason.

The man keep saying, THEY CAN THEY CAN...
Is it THEY CAN or THEY WILL?
He should choose one and stop confusing us.

I see death around the corner

They are busy shopping for the excuse they will use to keep bubu in power.

The topic should be
How Buhari blood sucking terrorists plan to disrupt election

The election is not just as easy as people thought and some canal are planning it doesn't hold.
Some men are fearing.

This is laughable, see them using cyber terrorist as an excuse for their impending defeat. Keep the excuses coming, but none is gonna stop the dude returning to Daura by 2019

Are these things not supposed to have been discussed and done with?

How can you people be telling us that if?

whst is if?

Are you not supposed to be telling the INEC via FG and not the massess..

Seems you guys have perfected how to rig the election.

Which enterprise architeture? anoda means of stealing?

How the Present caliber of retired politicians that are in government will believe and understand the capabilities of technology in this 21st century .
Gone are the days a wife is confined in other room for breedings !

Ok

Abeg

Even if all the terrorism in this world was concentrated on next year’s elections, it can never measure up to the amount of rigging (and its effects) being currently planned by the powers that be.

Another mugu want chop him own share of 2019 government money.So it is only now that you remember that the insecurity in Nigeria will affect 2019 elections which we need technology to overcome
This will be an indictment on a government that have scored itself so high that it feel security is no longer a problem in Nigeria today.

Na today....the one wey dem say dem wan disrupt in 2015 we are still waiting. God pass dem

APC done dey plan future excuses for there potential rigging

Russians please come and temper like you did with US own

Good one there Sir! Well Wailers will never understand.

No. This should be "How Buhari Plans to disrupt 2019 Elections"

Because that is the only way his got to borrow more time to remain in power. Else, he will be ousted.

Disrupt wetin?
Is that lifeless terrorist at Aso Rock not their patron?
Terrorist and their Afonja slaves are currently turning NiPoorgeria to a laughing stock.
