Una no want dem to show say dem dey work? Besides, this might be one of Prof.Pantanmi's discoveries as a cyber expert... abi wetin be that hin degree again.

All nigerian universities with NUC sponsored networks wireless and wired for free wifi and staff database should take note as they alone in this country use majority microtik routers.
.
They'll be affected more

Just to look like they are working, they gave a trojan a new name!

Una dey anti-useful.

Hahahaha

I just learnt a new word

Anti-useful

The want to be relevant too

The statement read: “The first cyber threat is a ransomware known as ‘Lokilocker’, which is capable of wiping data from all version of Windows systems or platforms. It causes data loss, and denial of service (DoS), which reduces user’s productivity.

“‘Lokilocker’ is a relatively new ransomware that has been discovered by security researchers and belonging to the ransomware family. Lokilocker operates by encrypting user files and renders the compromised system useless if the victim does not pay the demanded ransom in time.

“To hide the malicious activity, the ransomware displays a fake window update screen, cancel specific processes and services, and completely disables the task manager, windows error reporting, machine firewall and windows defender of the compromised system.

“Sadly, it also has in-built processes that prevent data recovery as it deletes backup files, shadow copies, and removes system restore points. It also overwrites the user login note and modifies original equipment manufacturer (OEM) information in the registry of the compromised system.”


Suggesting possible protection against LokiLocker, the statement quoted the NCC CSIRT as saying: “To protect against infections by LokiLocker and similar ransomware, the best rule is to always have a backup copy of your data, which should be stored offline.”

This is complete bullshit

We pay the most stupid incompetent people to manage our assets

Even a novice who just entered the field of cyberattacks can’t vomit this trash.

Even the advise on how to mitigate it is utter and complete trash

Anytime Nigeria release this kinda warning, I always hide my head in shame

This one is not about Buhari, it’s a national curse

No need to quote me with insults, I will not even respond cos I will be mourning NCC by then

See u.. Facebook was hacked. A site protected by expert that Nigerian government cannot employ talk less of this.

Buhari, give them a medal

The next they will say is that they need 3billion naira to purchase antivirus detector machine and since mumu Buhari don't know anything them just dey cash out for him head

This ones want to be relevant

Copy and Paste.

ObiOkpor:
Na nonsense them go dey uncover..
But to uncover threats to National Security remains a mileage to them..
Useless fools

Oga get it right, a cyberthreat is different from a national security. A cyberthreat that is found and is not disclosed can be damaging to the economy if eventually exploited..The fact that Nigeria has a computer emergency response team (CERT) in the NCC we are moving forward in terms of information security. But Nigerians need more of cybersecurity education, in order to protect our data and communicate securely.

Too much Tech jargons I'm lost

That's why you need cybersecurity security education.

DJGiore:
why do i find this funny, NCC did what ??

Do you care that there are seasoned software developers and cyber security experts in the employ of NCC? Yes, there are, and if they say there is a threat, it's worth looking into.

Lokilocker was discovered by BlackBerry. not the useless NCC

How NCC wan take discover am?

Shut up

You know absolute nothing about this

Who the Bleep is NCC when matters of cyber security is concerned. Literally no one cares about their opinion.
