@destino24 thanks, I appreciate your advice


You're welcome man.
About that impressive resumé, how did you achieve that? How were you able to acquire all that certification?

Fellow Hat,

We are all learners... Even the elites ain't gods yet

I will like to know when you will be coming to lagos.

I am both a programmer and Information Systems Security Nerd but I major in the later.

Maybe we could deck together...

I wrote the online exams and after I pass the exams, I was certified.

@VirusInjector

You sound like you do not live in Nigeria. Yes, Lagos will be a great place for you to start but I think you need more information about who your market will be before making the decision to move to Lagos.

I will advice that you continue to do your extensive research and planning first.

I have an MSc in IT Security from the UK, have not had time to pursue any certifications or even the motivation in Nigeria. My current job is very far away from my love IT security and I am very interested in such a business in Lagos. My end game is to be like you, but I may not be able to achieve that here.

Just though I might add that the Nigerian banks will be interested in such a business. But the Nigerian Law is not ready for IT Security.

Thanks for your advise. What is the best approach to Nigeria banks?

I have not been in that circle for about 3 years now, maybe things have changed a bit. The banks normally host this conference/monthly meetings to discuss IT security. I do not know if they still do this. My contact then has left the banking sector.

You may have to explore this yourself. Ask the IT professionals in the bank head offices.

^ Yes I paid a huge sacrifice in getting my certifications.

Apology accepted and thanks for your comment.

Do you know of any whitehat that make a living from information security here in Nigeria?
