The Katsina command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps has engaged its personnel in two-day cyber security and digital literacy training.

Its commandant, Jamilu Indabawa, said the aim was to enhance their performance, especially in cyber resilience.

Mr Indabawa said the training came at the right time. He said the training was organised when the command redoubled its commitment to ensuring the state’s safety and security.

Mr Indabawa, who expressed the belief that all the resource persons were very good at the job, therefore, called on the personnel to pay attention to learn more.

He expressed confidence that whatever the resource persons would dish out would be useful to them, and in the end, the command would have every reason to celebrate.

The commandant expressed hope that, in the end, the beneficiaries would step down the training to their colleagues at various levels.

Mr Indabawa said that the exercise was part of his engagement and collaboration towards enhancing the capacity of the personnel in the state in terms of cyber awareness.
