| Background: Nigeria's rapid digital transformation has led to increased cyber risks, endangering the country's security and stability. Although various policies and guidelines have been developed on cybersecurity, it is not yet clear how effective they are when compared to global benchmarks. Aims: This literature survey compares cybersecurity governance in Nigeria with developed countries, identifies shortcomings and offers recommendations for improvement. Methodology: Through qualitative data analysis, the study highlights weaknesses in laws and regulations, lack of cybersecurity awareness and training, corruption issues, infrastructure, housing shortages and poor economic integration. Comparing global practices with countries such as the UK, the US and Estonia, the study reveals that Nigeria lags behind in key areas such as law enforcement and the concept of work. Finding: The recommendations include reforming the regulatory framework to respond to emerging threats, promoting stronger public-private partnerships, expanding awareness and training, and adopting Recognize global best practices in cybersecurity governance. Conclusion: Improving these aspects will help Nigeria strengthen its ability to defend itself against evolving cyber threats and better align with global standards. | ||
