Okay so what is the next step now to secure the data and where is the prove sef. AWS has a lot of authentication for people using it personally , how much more a government agency ...show me prove or I don't believe ... I want to believe the government opted for a private cloud .From my little research it is very possible and it is a know Hack, anyway Government can recruit pen testers help them check for loop holes ....

I won't be surprised if it's usual fake news from the same unpatriotic quarter that couldn't get Prof. Pantami sacked last year.

aws S3 buckets nah just araha...and if you look hard enough you'd see things
I thought they wanted on premise servers. Despite the billions. S3 is not that bad but for things like this they need to take extra precautions.

Main-one has data centres here in Nigeria but no, oga Pantami carried our data to the US for storage. This Nigeria is not a country really. I can't imagine the US storing sensitive data on Azure servers located in Germany. Anybody can get hacked, but it shouldn't be script kiddies or individuals... I hope that Sam of a guy doesn't get hacked by NKorea or China for the data. Maybe they might as well have a go at our servers grin

Most Nigerian .gov sites are easy to hack, you need is basic hacking skills.

I am not talking about pro skills, but basic amateur skills. Skills that have been rendered obsolete by top foreign websites will still penetrate the best .gov site in Nigeria.

Naija na cruise na.


Analog leaders leading a digital populace . That is why they are frighteningly clueless about a lot of things . It’s also why they are trying to control the tech space with idiotic policies . They are annoyed that young tech guys and ladies in their 20s and 30s are becoming billionaires. They don’t understand it so they are attacking it . Banned crypto , then Created e-naira for control . Ordinary Identity card , they can’t print . Ordinary passport , they are importing .
Useless , analog , egotistical, nepotistic leaders .

He claimed S3, so they are on AWS Servers.

It shouldn't matter if they are on premise or in the cloud.

If the right protocols are followed, access should only be top-level.

I knew this will happen someday sooner.

Am not surprised at all.
I have been very reluctant all this while, I don't trust this government and his minions, especially that ISA PATA-NLA ( BIG PANTS).

Pantami is innocent, not the first time in 9ja,not the last.[sub][/sub]

At least you should know ALL 9ja websites with .gov.ng are hackable within 2 hrs

Data base is different from website.

For instance,you cannot get a bank customers details or data base by just hacking the bank's website.

Op you don't need to be a Pro hacker to hack my School website..

Just understand basic HTML codes..

Those dumb ICT directors will be chanting our school files is secure and saved in the Cloud ..

I go just dey laugh...

I am waiting for this day.. when someone will hack S3 bucket of my school files and delete whatever they found there..

If this story is true... Then Nothing is left again in this country Nigeria..

How can Nigeria pay billions of Naira to host NIMC on Public Cloud Service..

God will punish all you illiterates making us elites look stupid in our own country..

I may be wrong but I smell mischief and lies behind this story.
