The Tranter IT boss’ passion for the success of Nigeria and the elevation of Nigerians to global leadership positions underscores his vision and mission, characterized by his perennial drive and hard work to contribute meaningfully to society.

With his quest for building sustainable economic growth through manpower development, he asserted that “Nigeria is rich in natural resources, but is also very rich in human resources and technical ability and is more than adequately well-endowed to succeed in the service industry with a boost in discipline-selective manpower development. Given the huge agricultural and natural resources base

Nigeria can also do very well in the manufacturing industry with better R&D and manpower technical development. I need to mention that, in my opinion, the issue of inadequate power supply that has been a millstone around the neck of our manufacturing industry will soon be resolved as technology, knowledge, and the present determination to come out of the ‘darkness’, over-takes, and overcomes, the negative political agendas and economically retrogressive special interests.

The local and international outsourcing industry in Nigeria, regarding technology services, banking and financial services, consulting, medicine, wellness, and caregiving will soon become a major contributor to the GDP of our nation. Our English-speaking local manpower, when well-trained, well-oriented, and given access to affordable financial resources to engage in entrepreneurial activities, will be a major positive and nation-building force to be reckoned with in the modern industrial era.

At the heart of our approach is the recognition that investing in both the development and the deployment of our human capital is paramount.

We understand that the future belongs to those who are not only empowered but are also equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to harness the power of technology and science. That’s why for twenty years now, our organization has been dedicated to the mass development of high-productivity, technical, and science-based manpower equipped with the ability to add significant value locally and internationally. By building and nurturing a skilled workforce, we are laying the foundation for a knowledge-based economy that can thrive across various sectors, including the services, manufacturing, agriculture, and agro-allied industries.

As the CEO of Tranter IT, “I am deeply committed to driving this agenda forward, particularly through the lens of manpower development, the service industry, and local manufacturing. When we look at the great strides and developments that have taken place in certain countries that have focused on the service industry, we must not ignore that industry and the tremendous benefits that can come from it. Some countries in the world have benefitted substantially from just the provision of services even in the absence of natural resources in their territories. They have proven that the service industry can be a great economic force in a country that understands and has the passion for the service industry.”

Speaking further, he noted that “Central to our vision is the integration of technology into every aspect of production, industry and commerce.

We believe that by leveraging modern tech-based productivity tools including smart technology and the brilliant energy-efficient and productivity-boosting smart solutions we offer today, we can add value and unlock new levels of efficiency and innovation. From smart and precision agriculture techniques that optimize crop yields to advanced manufacturing processes that enhance the quality and volume of production, technology, and skilled manpower hold the key to unlocking untapped potential and enabling sustainable economic growth.

Our efforts, however, extend beyond the confines of the factory or technology floors. We recognize the critical role that agriculture plays in driving economic growth, particularly in developing countries. That’s why we are championing initiatives aimed at implementing smart agriculture practices. By harnessing the power of data acquisition using smart (IoT) wireless devices, data analytics, and other cutting-edge technologies, we can boost agricultural productivity, minimize the risks, and hence exponentially increase the number of investors in the sector and ensure a stable and adequate food supply for our growing population. More than ever before food security shall guide the policies of our nation and we shall play our contributory role.

We are keenly focused on the agro-processing sector, which adds the much-needed significant value to raw agricultural produce that makes the agriculture sector more attractive and successful. By establishing agro-processing factories that leverage local raw materials, we can create new economic opportunities while reducing our country’s reliance on economically draining and job-killing imports. We should be a net exporter of value-added agricultural produce since we certainly have all that it takes to achieve that position. This not only enhances our economic resilience but also fosters inclusive growth by empowering local communities and the nation as a whole.”

In conclusion, the path to sustainable economic growth is paved with investments in manpower development, local manufacturing, outsourcing services and technology-driven innovations, agriculture, and value-added agro-allied production. By embracing these principles, we can unlock new opportunities, drive productivity gains, and chart a course toward a brighter future for all. As we celebrate our 20th anniversary this year, we invite you to join us in commemorating this milestone. Be on the lookout for exciting updates and events on our website and social media pages.”

ManageEngine Patch Manager Diaries: Inside the Epic Saga of Software Defense.

Welcome to the riveting world of software defense, where every day brings new challenges, unexpected twists, and high-stakes battles against cyber threats.

In this blog article, we embark on a journey through the eyes of a Patch Manager, delving deep into the epic saga of safeguarding digital realms with ManageEngine Patch Manager. Join us as we uncover the trials, triumphs, and invaluable lessons learned in the relentless pursuit of software security.

Chapter 1: The Call to Arms


Our story begins with a humble Patch Manager named Alex, whose unassuming role belied the critical nature of their mission. Tasked with fortifying the organization’s digital infrastructure against ever-evolving threats, Alex embraced their duty with unwavering determination. Armed with ManageEngine Patch Manager, a formidable arsenal of patches, and a keen eye for vulnerabilities, they stood ready to defend their kingdom from the encroaching darkness of cyber attacks.

Chapter 2: The Battle of Zero-Day Exploits


As the digital landscape grew increasingly treacherous, Alex faced their greatest challenge yet: the dreaded zero-day exploits. With no prior warning and no patches readily available, these insidious vulnerabilities threatened to breach the organization’s defenses with devastating consequences. Yet, undeterred by the enormity of the task at hand, Alex rallied their team, leveraged the power of ManageEngine Patch Manager’s vulnerability intelligence, and devised innovative strategies to preemptively thwart potential attacks.

Chapter 3: The Quest for Compliance


In the labyrinthine realm of regulatory compliance, adherence to stringent security standards was paramount. With auditors lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce upon any lapse in defense, Alex embarked on a perilous quest to ensure compliance across the organization’s vast network of endpoints. Through meticulous planning, rigorous testing, and seamless deployment facilitated by ManageEngine Patch Manager, they navigated the maze of regulations with finesse, emerging victorious against the specter of non-compliance.

Chapter 4: Allies in the Cloud


As the organization embraced the cloud with open arms, Alex found themselves confronted with a new frontier in software defense. With assets scattered across virtual realms and perimeter defenses rendered porous by the boundless expanse of cyberspace, traditional security measures proved insufficient. Yet, with ManageEngine Patch Manager’s cloud-native capabilities at their disposal, Alex forged alliances with cloud providers, orchestrated synchronized patching operations, and fortified the organization’s digital citadel against threats from all angles.

Chapter 5: The Legacy of Vigilance


As our epic saga draws to a close, we reflect on the enduring legacy of vigilance, resilience, and innovation embodied by Alex and their tireless efforts in the realm of software defense. Through the trials and tribulations, the victories and setbacks, one truth remained immutable: the fight against cyber threats is a never-ending journey, requiring constant vigilance, unwavering resolve, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

Epilogue: The Patchwork Continues

The saga of software defense is never truly over. New threats emerge new vulnerabilities are discovered. But with ManageEngine Patch Manager as their loyal companion, the IT team at AppCorp faces the future with courage and confidence. They are forever vigilant, ever prepared, and ready to write new chapters in their epic saga of software defense.

Love in the Digital Age: How IT Support Keeps Relationships Thriving

In today’s world, where technology is like a close friend, it can also become a bit of a pain sometimes, especially in relationships. Imagine missing a video call with your long-distance love because of a Wi-Fi crash, or losing those precious memories on your phone. That’s where the unsung heroes step in – the IT support specialists.

However, the digital world can also be a source of frustration and misunderstandings. A forgotten password, a misinterpreted text, or a glitching video chat can quickly turn a sweet exchange sour. It’s in these moments that IT support steps up, not just fixing technical issues but also acting as a communication facilitator.

Think of them as tech knights in shining armor. They swoop in to fix those frozen laptops holding your anniversary plans or recover that sweet text you accidentally deleted.

They become the bridge for couples with different levels of tech knowledge, explaining things clearly and patiently. They’re also like digital bodyguards, keeping your photos, videos, and important documents safe from harm.

This isn’t to say technology replaces genuine effort or emotional connection, but rather that it’s become an integral part of the modern love terrain. From video calls bridging geographical distances to shared music playlists setting the mood for a romantic evening, technology offers unique tools for connection and expression.

Here’s how IT support keeps Relationships Thriving in the digital age:

  • Maintaining the communication lifeline: In a world where distance is no longer a barrier to love, video calls and online messaging are crucial for maintaining connection. IT support ensures these vital communication channels stay open, allowing couples to overcome geographical barriers and stay connected despite physical separation. Imagine a romantic surprise video call interrupted by a frozen screen – an IT supporter can prevent such disasters!

  • Protecting your digital love nest: The digital world can be a dangerous place, filled with viruses and malware that can wreak havoc on your devices and potentially expose personal information. IT support acts as the digital knight, safeguarding your online haven and ensuring your private messages and love letters remain secure from prying eyes.

  • Facilitating digital date nights: Gone are the days of solely relying on candlelit dinners. The digital age offers a plethora of ways to spend quality time together online, from virtual tours of museums to co-op gaming sessions. IT support ensures these digital dates run smoothly, preventing technical glitches from turning a romantic evening into a frustrating struggle.

  • Rescuing lost memories: Technology can be a treasure trove of memories, capturing special moments through photos, videos, and messages. IT support acts as the digital archivist, helping retrieve lost data and ensuring cherished memories don’t disappear into the abyss of the internet. Imagine the heartbreak of losing photos from your anniversary trip – an IT supporter can be the hero who saves the day.

 

While technology may not be the sole foundation of a strong relationship, it undeniably plays a significant role in our modern lives. By ensuring these tools function smoothly, IT support plays a supportive role in the background, allowing couples to focus on what truly matters – fostering their connection and nurturing their love.

AI and the IT Support Skills of Tomorrow

The IT landscape is evolving at warp speed, and the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is at the forefront of this transformation. As organizations continue to adopt advanced technologies to enhance their operations, the skills required for IT support are also evolving. In this article, we will explore the intersection of AI and the IT support skills of tomorrow, shedding light on the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

The Rise of AI in IT Support:

AI has become a game-changer in the realm of IT support. From automating routine tasks to providing predictive analysis and proactive troubleshooting, AI technologies are reshaping how support teams operate. Machine learning algorithms, natural language processing, and automation tools are enabling IT professionals to deliver more efficient and effective support services.

Key AI-driven Advancements in IT Support.

  • Automation of Repetitive Tasks:

AI-powered bots can handle routine tasks like password resets, system updates, and software installations, allowing IT support teams to focus on more complex issues.

Chatbots equipped with natural language processing can provide instant assistance to users, improving response times and user satisfaction.

  • Predictive Analytics:

AI algorithms analyze historical data to predict potential issues before they occur. This proactive approach minimizes downtime and enhances the overall reliability of IT systems.

Predictive analytics also help plan and optimize IT infrastructure by identifying trends and patterns.

  • Self-Healing Systems:

AI-driven systems can identify and resolve certain issues automatically without human intervention. This self-healing capability ensures continuous system functionality and reduces the workload on IT support teams.

The Cool Stuffs AI Brings To IT Support

As AI becomes an integral part of IT support, the skills required for professionals in this field are evolving. While traditional technical expertise remains crucial, there is a growing demand for a combination of technical and soft skills that complement AI-driven support systems.

  • Technical Proficiency:

IT support professionals must stay updated on the latest AI technologies and tools. Understanding how to integrate and leverage AI solutions is essential for optimizing support processes.

Proficiency in scripting languages and the ability to work with APIs are becoming increasingly important as AI-driven automation becomes more prevalent.

  • Adaptability and Continuous Learning:

The fast-paced nature of technological advancements demands a commitment to continuous learning. IT support professionals should be adaptable and willing to acquire new skills to keep up with evolving AI technologies.

Familiarity with cloud computing, cybersecurity, and data analytics is becoming a standard part of the IT support skill set.

  • Communication and Collaboration:

Effective communication skills are critical as IT support professionals interact with both technical and non-technical users. The ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and understandably is invaluable.

Collaboration skills are essential for working alongside AI systems, understanding their outputs, and making informed decisions based on AI-driven insights.

As AI continues to reshape the IT support landscape, the future belongs to professionals who embrace the symbiotic relationship between human expertise and artificial intelligence. The IT support skills of tomorrow require a balance of technical proficiency, adaptability, and effective communication.

By staying abreast of AI developments and honing a diverse skill set, IT support professionals can not only navigate the evolving landscape but also contribute significantly to the efficiency and success of organizations in the digital era.

The Human Advantage.

In an AI-powered landscape, the human touch becomes even more vital. Creativity, critical thinking, complex problem-solving, and the ability to navigate ambiguity will remain unmatched by machines. These uniquely human skills will be the true differentiators for IT support professionals, allowing them to guide AI, interpret nuances, and ensure technology serves the needs of individuals and organizations.

The Future is Collaborative.

The future of IT support is not about humans versus AI, but about humans and AI working in concert. By embracing the power of AI and honing the skills that only humans possess, we can create a hybrid support model that is more efficient, effective, and ultimately, more human-centered than ever before.

So, are you ready to join the collaborative future of IT support? Start learning about AI, embrace your inner data detective, and hone your uniquely human skills – the future of technology needs both brilliant machines and brilliant humans working together.

This is just the beginning of the conversation. What skills do you think will be most important for IT support professionals in the age of AI? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

The Exciting Partnership of Humans and AI (Artificial Intelligence) in IT Support

In the heart of Atlanta, one of the biggest tech hubs in the United States of America, according to TechPoint stands TitanTechHub. A tech hub where everything related to technology thrives, especially IT support.

 

Let’s meet Ade, a skilled IT expert with loads of experience, the go-to guy for fixing complex issues in TitanTechHub’s vast network.

However, with technology always changing, the city’s IT department introduced an AI (Artificial Intelligence) assistant named Robert to work alongside Ade.

The Emergence of AI in IT Support:

At first, people were unsure about this mix of humans and AI. Ade, proud of his skills, wondered if AI was here to replace human expertise with lines of code. On the flip side, Robert, the AI assistant, was eager to show that it could enhance human efforts instead of taking over completely.

A Day in the Life of Ade and Robert:

One day, TitanTechHub faced a major internet problem, and chaos ensued. Ade and Robert solved it by combining their human and artificial intelligence. Ade‘s expertise helped figure out tricky parts, while Robert, the AI, quickly sifted through tons of information to find solutions. Together, they made a great team and got everything back to normal.

Augmented Intelligence:

Their success changed how people saw AI in IT support. Ade and Robert’s partnership became a symbol of the future – a future where humans and AI work together, bringing out the best in each other. It wasn’t about replacing one with the other but creating a connection that made both stronger.

Boosting Efficiency with AI Automation:

As weeks passed, Ade and Robert became good friends. Ade focused on creative problem-solving and helping upset users, while Robert handled the repetitive tasks. It learned from Ade’s choices, getting better at solving problems over time. This success story sparked a revolution worldwide, with organizations adopting similar models, understanding that the future of IT support is a collaboration, not a competition.

Personalized User Experiences:

The benefits were clear – IT specialists didn’t have to do boring tasks, and AI systems became better at understanding people’s needs. Ade and Robert’s story became a symbol of hope, proving that amazing things happen when people and AI work together to improve IT support.

Training and Upskilling:

As AI becomes a big part of IT support, it’s crucial to invest in continuous training for human agents. IT professionals need to adapt to these changes, gaining the skills to work effectively with AI tools. This evolution in skills is vital for a workforce that can handle the evolving demands of IT support.

The future of IT support looks promising, driven by the seamless integration of human intelligence and AI capabilities. Embracing AI as a collaborator, not a replacement, is key for organizations to stay ahead in this ever-changing landscape.

Artificial Intelligence: A Plus or Minus for Cybersecurity

In an era dominated by digital advancements, the role and importance of cybersecurity cannot be overemphasized. As businesses, governments, and individuals increasingly rely on digital platforms and technologies, the risk of cyber threats continues to escalate.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has proven to be a crucial asset in tackling cybersecurity concerns, offering the development of Intelligent Agents to address specific security challenges effectively.

In the tech space, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a critical component in fortifying cybersecurity defenses.

This article explores the evolving role of AI in cybersecurity, examining its benefits, capabilities, and the transformative impact it brings to the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape.

 

Roles of Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity

AI’s role in cybersecurity extends beyond traditional methods, revolutionizing how organizations safeguard their systems and data. By harnessing the power of AI and cybersecurity, security professionals gain access to enhanced detection, proactive threat mitigation, and intelligent automation, allowing them to stay one step ahead of cyber threats in an ever-evolving landscape.

The role of AI in cyber security has become essential in bolstering human efforts in information security. As the enterprise attack surface expands, AI aids in identifying and analyzing threats, reducing breach risk, and enhancing security posture. It excels in risk prioritization, malware detection, incident response guidance, and intrusion detection.

 

What are the Advantages of AI in Enhancing Cybersecurity?

A self-learning AI-based cybersecurity posture management system proves indispensable in overcoming these challenges. By continuously and autonomously collecting data from an organization’s information systems, this system can analyze and correlate patterns across millions or billions of signals relevant to the enterprise’s attack surface.

This innovative approach provides enhanced intelligence to human teams across various cybersecurity domains, including:

  • IT Asset Inventory: Achieving a comprehensive and accurate inventory of all devices, users, and applications with access to information systems while categorizing and assessing business criticality.

  • Threat Exposure: Staying up to date with global and industry-specific threats, empowering organizations to prioritize security measures based on likelihood and potential impact.

  • Controls Effectiveness: Assessing the impact and efficacy of existing security tools and processes to strengthen security posture.

  • Breach Risk Prediction: Predicting vulnerability and potential breaches by considering IT asset inventory, threat exposure, and control effectiveness, enabling proactive resource allocation for mitigation.

  • Incident Response: Providing contextual insights to prioritize and respond swiftly to security alerts, identify causes, and improve incident management processes.

  • Transparent solutions: Ensuring that AI recommendations and analyses are transparent and understandable, fostering collaboration and support from stakeholders at all levels of the organization, including end users, security operations, management, and auditors.

How Does Artificial Intelligence (AI) Affect Cybersecurity Negatively?

While artificial intelligence (AI) has brought numerous advancements to cybersecurity, it is important to recognize that, like any technology, it can also pose certain challenges and risks. Here are some ways in which AI can negatively affect cybersecurity:

  • Adversarial Attacks: AI systems, particularly machine learning models, can be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Malicious actors may manipulate or trick AI algorithms by introducing subtle changes to input data, leading the system to make incorrect predictions or classifications.

  • Increased Sophistication of Cyber Threats: As AI is employed for cybersecurity, cybercriminals may leverage the same technology to enhance the sophistication of their attacks. AI-powered malware and hacking tools can adapt and evolve, making it more challenging for traditional cybersecurity measures to detect and mitigate these threats.

  • Privacy Concerns: AI often relies on vast amounts of data for training and improvement. In the context of cybersecurity, this could involve sensitive information. The collection, storage, and processing of such data raise privacy concerns, especially if not adequately protected, leading to potential misuse or unauthorized access.

  • False Positives and Negatives: AI systems are not infallible, and false positives or negatives can occur. False positives may result in legitimate activities being flagged as threats, leading to unnecessary actions. On the other hand, false negatives may allow actual threats to go undetected, compromising cybersecurity defenses.

  • Bias in AI Algorithms: Bias in AI algorithms can be a significant concern. If training data used to develop AI models is biased, the system may inadvertently discriminate against certain groups or fail to recognize specific types of threats, leading to an incomplete or unfair cybersecurity posture.

  • Dependency and Overreliance: Overreliance on AI for cybersecurity without proper human oversight can be risky. Cybersecurity professionals must understand the limitations of AI and be prepared to intervene in situations where AI may fall short or produce unexpected outcomes.

  • Limited Explainability: Some advanced AI models, especially deep learning networks, lack transparency in decision-making processes. The “black box” nature of these models makes it challenging to understand how they reach specific conclusions, hindering the ability to explain and justify cybersecurity-related decisions.

To mitigate these challenges, it is crucial to approach AI in cybersecurity with a comprehensive understanding of both its capabilities and limitations. A balanced approach that combines AI with human expertise and traditional cybersecurity measures can enhance overall defense strategies. Regular monitoring, updates, and ethical considerations are essential for ensuring that AI contributes positively to cybersecurity efforts.
