As a recent article in Africa Cybersecurity Magazine points out, Africa loses an average of $3.5 billions to cybercrime. Africa is particularly affected by cyber threats, highly vulnerable to cyberattacks, and further weakened by a lack of skilled cybersecurity resources. Events like #EOCON are therefore key to motivating and encouraging talent! 💪 🚀

📆 Open to all, EOCON will take place from October 20-28 and will consist of three events :
• October 20-22 : 🚩 EyesOpen CTF - online - solo participation or teams of 2
• October 23-25 :⚙ EOWORKSHOP training workshops - online
• October 26-28 : 🗣 Digital Security Conference and Expert Panels - online. The EOCON conference will bring together business leaders, organizations and professionals from multiple locations.
