  The World Governments IT systems
 are moving toward cloud
computing and mobile
technologies, with large stores
of government data as a major
strategic asset in collaborative
form among various government
entities. The proposed
Centralised Demographic Database
represents opportunity to make
sense of data available to
government, and an opportunity
for government agencies to seek
to exploit it to enhance the
business of government.

The Telecommunications and
Postal Sectors Reform Project
will assist the government in
developing a legal, regulatory,
and institutional framework for
delivering competitively-priced
and high quality
telecommunications and postal
services.
 Demographic shifts will fuel the
growth of new sectors, markets,
and service lines: The ability
of our diversity to build
strength and unity is the power
that will propel the
organization and consequently,
the Nigerian industry, into new
dimensions of performance.

Big
Data,
Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cyber security, and Cloud
technologies, a new paradigm in
information technology.
As technologies,
governments and businesses shift, the
impact of big data and the impact of
cyber security and defence programs are
often felt long after decisions are
made, technology deployed and end users
and clients have adopted the technology
change. The combinations of big data,
cloud, artificial intelligence (AI) is a
change agent that have altered the
approach that cyber professionals
evaluate, defend and manage in these
integrated ecosystem. This complexity
should not take you away from the big
picture of truly advancing your business
operations and the protection of your
programs.
Data
Monetisation and Sourcing
-
Problem: Data
often needs to be augmented from
other sources, which is hard to
aggregate from different silos but
making and gaining or huge value by
analysing the data. Although, data
monetisation is often held back by
data access and governance concerns.
-
Solution:
Distil out the generalizable signal
into safe synthetic data at the
edge, in each silo.
-
Sell access to
the synthetic data. This allows
insight to be shared without
exposing individuals or real data.
-
Benefits:
Access sensitive data, safely
monetise your data and create
new revenue streams.
Artificial
intelligence (AI) for a smarter kind of
cyber security
AI is changing the game for cyber
security, analyzing massive quantities
of risk data to speed response times and
augment under-resourced security
operations
As cyber attacks
grow in volume and complexity,
artificial intelligence (AI) is helping
under-resourced security operations
analysts stay ahead of threats. Curating
threat intelligence from millions of
research papers, blogs and news stories,
AI provides instant insights to help you
fight through the noise of thousands of
daily alerts, drastically reducing
response times. Strategy and design of
advanced AI can act as an advisor to
analysts, helping them quickly identify
and connect the dots between threats. |

New skills are needed to fully
harness the power of big data.
Though courses are being offered to
prepare a new generation of big data
experts, it will take some time to
get them into the workforce.
Meanwhile, leading organizations are
developing new roles, focusing on
key challenges and creating new
business models to gain the most
from big data.
According to
IBM
While big data can provide
significant value, it also presents
significant risk. Organizations must
be proactive about privacy, security
and governance to ensure all data
and insights are protected and
secure.
Potential of Big Data
 Big data has the potential to
empower you to make better business
decisions, in real time. By
unlocking your organisation’s data,
you can fundamentally change the way
it operates and steer the
transformative, digital journey your
stakeholders expect. Big data also
brings a new breed of security
concerns. It’s precisely the
unstructured nature of big data that
makes it more vulnerable to security
breaches than the corporate
information generated by your usual
applications.
Benefits
-
Dimension Data can assist you
to:
-
move away from tactical
decision-making and make
strategic choices about big data
-
develop roadmaps to achieve your
big data aspirations
-
ensure your network is able to
support increased volumes of
data
-
make optimal use of cloud, where
it makes sense to do so
-
shield your most precious asset,
data, in ways that will allow
you to risk less and achieve
more
 Big data platforms: We can assist you to move ahead on your big data
journey by implementing a low-cost,
simple platform to gather data. From
there you’ll be able to identify
useful patterns that will drive
returns very quickly, if followed up
with proactive activity. A small
investment in such a platform can be
funded from the benefits gained by
its use both in private and
public sector.
Our Solution for Government is to
produce flexible, compliant and
secure outcomes that meet your
policy, compliance and commercial
challenges
as a Government agency adopting
Cloud services.

Big
data is being generated by
everything around us at all times
from every digital process and
social media exchanges. Big data is
changing the way people within
organizations work together. It is
creating a culture in which business
and IT leaders must join forces to
realize value from all data.
