Academic project: Enhancing Third-Party Access for Nigerian National Identification Number (NIN) using One-Time Password-Based Authentication.

Academic project: Design and Implementation of LAN Within the Offices of the Computer Science Department.

Academic relevance: communication, technical writing, instructional practice and professional documentation.

Explored one-time-password-based authentication as an approach to strengthening controlled third-party access to Nigerian National Identification Number information.

Designed and documented a local-area-network implementation for departmental office connectivity as part of the National Diploma programme.

Defensive security research submitted through responsible disclosure; confirmed, fixed and rewarded.

• Phishing risk quantification: simulated organisational assessment translating phishing-behaviour data into measurable organisational and financial risk using structured GRC analysis.
• Risk assessment methodology: structured assessment covering service discovery, vulnerability identification, prioritisation, financial risk analysis, business impact, treatment and control mapping. Tools and frameworks included Nmap, Nikto, Nuclei, NIST CSF, NIST SP 800-53, CIS Controls, PCI DSS and OWASP Top 10.
• SecureMobile: simulated mobile-banking case study applying SLE, ARO, ALE, cost-benefit analysis and security-investment prioritisation to cybersecurity risk.
• Wazuh FIM: implemented File Integrity Monitoring across Ubuntu/Windows lab systems to detect file changes and validate detective controls using audit-oriented evidence.

Designed a reusable structured-data and template workflow using Google Apps Script, Google Sheets, Google Slides and Google Workspace for ICDFA Cybersecurity Festival 2026 and the InnoHealth maternal-health dialogue.
