What is Lead Cybersecurity Manager?
The PECB Lead Cybersecurity Manager programme trains the people who run security programmes: setting strategy and policy, managing cyber risk, standing up controls and incident capability, and reporting to boards and regulators in language they can act on.
Why it matters in Nigeria
Every sizable Nigerian organisation now owns cyber risk at board level — and the shortage is not tooling but leadership: managers who can convert threat into programme, programme into metrics, and metrics into board confidence. The Lead Cybersecurity Manager credential targets exactly that gap.
