    (International Journal of Advances in Engineering and Management, 2024-04-24) Aliyu Musa Bade; Abdullahi, Adamu Garba
    The Internet has become a medium of transaction in the global economy, prompting many companies to employ it in their daily operations. As a result, there is an urgent demand for cybersecurity understanding as well as the ability to defend key assets. The purpose of this article is to investigate the level of cybersecurity awareness among students in Northeastern Nigeria regarding internet addiction. Data were collected using a quantitative approach. For the initial result findings, descriptive analysis was performed utilizing OriginPro's graphical design. The preliminary results reveal that students have some moderate understanding of internet addiction however, this is a need for urgent awareness training on how to balance life with and without the internet. Based on responders, Male students account for 77.1% (N=340), while females account for 22.9% (N=101). Future studies would focus on developing awareness initiatives to raise students' awareness, particularly in Nigeria's northeast.

    Cybersecurity capability maturity models review and application domain
    (International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2020-09-02) Abdullahi, Adamu Garba; Aliyu Musa Bade; Muktar Yahuza; Ya'u Nuhu
    Cybersecurity is a way of protecting organization critical assets, through the identification of cyber threats that can compromise the information stored, it involves the protection, identification, and responding to threats. The main aim of this article is to conduct an ample review of the published cybersecurity capability maturity models using a systematic review of published articles from 2014 to 2019. Features of Hal- vorsen and Conradi’s taxonomy were adopted to explain the models identified. The results indicated adopting a model to a certain organization is not feasible. However, modification is required before implementation, as the cost of implementation is not available when conducting this research.
