Ncc discovers 41 illegal internet service providers
That's a significant discovery!
According to reports, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has discovered 41 illegal Internet Service Providers (ISPs) operating in the country. This is a major breakthrough in the fight against cybercrime and illegal activities in the telecommunications sector.
The discovery was made during a recent audit of the country's telecommunications infrastructure, which aimed to identify and shut down illegal ISPs that were providing substandard services to unsuspecting subscribers.
The NCC has since taken steps to shut down these illegal ISPs, which were allegedly operating without the necessary licenses and permits. This move is expected to improve the quality of services provided by legitimate ISPs and reduce the risk of cyber attacks and other illegal activities.
The discovery and shutdown of these illegal ISPs is a significant achievement for the NCC and a major victory in the fight against cybercrime. It demonstrates the commission's commitment to ensuring the security and integrity of the country's telecommunications infrastructure.
It's also a reminder to consumers to be cautious when selecting an ISP and to verify the legitimacy of any provider before signing up for their services.
