The Security Incident Management Audit Program is designed to provide organizations operating in Nigeria with a structured approach to evaluating and improving their security incident management capabilities. This document becomes necessary when organizations need to establish systematic audit procedures to assess their incident management processes, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain effective security controls. The program incorporates requirements from Nigerian legislation including the Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) 2019, Cybercrimes Act 2015, and relevant sector-specific regulations. It outlines detailed procedures for conducting audits, collecting evidence, assessing compliance, and reporting findings. The document is particularly important given Nigeria's evolving cybersecurity landscape and increasing regulatory focus on data protection and security incident management. It serves as a critical tool for organizations to demonstrate due diligence and regulatory compliance while continuously improving their security posture.
