Inveteck Global, a licensed cybersecurity firm under Ghana’s Cyber Security Authority (CSA), is ramping up its training programs to meet the growing need for skilled cybersecurity professionals as Ghana’s digital landscape rapidly evolves.
Official figures reveal that between January and June of last year, cyber fraud resulted in direct financial losses amounting to GH₵49.5 million, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity measures.
This highlights the increased vulnerability of Ghana’s expanding digital infrastructure, which includes online banking and e-governance systems.
Emmanuel Haizel, Director of Training at Inveteck Global, emphasised the firm’s commitment to enhancing cybersecurity expertise.
“I am always excited to deliver impactful training at Inveteck Global, empowering organisations and individuals to stay ahead in cybersecurity while making the field accessible and enjoyable for everyone,” he said.
Inveteck Global has trained nearly 400 professionals in Ghana in the past year.
The company’s reputation for excellence has attracted international attention. Recent training cohorts have included officials from Ghana and India and professionals from Nigeria.
Over the last two years, Inveteck Global has trained approximately 1,500 individuals in India and 100 from Nigeria and the US.
The firm’s curriculum is efficient, incorporating current technologies and methodologies. Courses cover a broad range of topics, from basic cybersecurity principles to advanced ethical hacking, with a reported 95 per cent of training dedicated to practical application, ensuring that our trainees are well-prepared to tackle real-world cybersecurity challenges.
The cybersecurity market in Ghana is expected to grow by 15 percent annually over the next five years, indicating significant potential for further development in training and services.
Former students have reported transformative experiences. Grady Davis, a mechanical engineer turned cybersecurity professional, praised the program:
“I was blown away by the comprehensive training, which covered both the fundamentals and advanced topics in cybersecurity.”
Godfred Quansah, now a cybersecurity engineer, highlighted the quality of the ethical hacking course: “Inveteck Global’s ethical hacking course is the best in Ghana. It is entirely practical, and the instructors are exceptionally knowledgeable.”
Bernice A. Dulemordzi, a penetration tester, endorsed the firm’s training: “Inveteck Global is your best bet for quality cybersecurity training in Ghana. Their training is 100 percent practical, and they support you beyond the classroom.”
William Boateng, a SOC Analyst, shared his success story: “The hands-on labs and real-world case studies provided by Inveteck Global equipped me with the skills needed to excel in my career.
Today, I work as a Security Operations Centre Analyst for a leading bank in Ghana, and I owe it all to the top-notch training I received, a testament to the transformative power of Inveteck Global’s training programs.
As cyber threats continue to grow, Inveteck Global’s commitment to practical and impactful training remains crucial in strengthening Ghana’s cybersecurity landscape.
