Security is at the apex of human's hierarchy of needs and as such very necessary. At the same time, our daily activities make us vulnerable to insecurity. In this sociology project topic, our attention is drawn to developing Security awareness programmes in Nigeria and its implication on safety. This is in response to the prevailing security issues inherent in our daily activities including the use of the internet.

The virtual world that the Internet creates permits interactivity; it beats time and space. This means that people could easily connect, talk, do business together, learn, earn, and disagree without ever having a physical contact. Whereas this development is very welcome, one of its shortcomings is the vulnerability that comes with connectivity.

Taking back to the sociology project topic, security awareness have not been done enough in this regard. Let's call your attention very quickly to this. When was the last time you read a website's security and privacy policy? Ever read through a security and privacy policy of a website before clicking the "I agree" button? Your answer should determine how security conscious you have been.

Successful online businesses adopt the Internet to facilitate their business needs. One of those is user data which helps a business to secure its users and in the interest of the business as well.   
However the internet creates room for baseless trust and also allows scam businesses to adopt the same method to accumulate users' data. As such users share their private and sometimes sensitive personal information to such sources including the illegitimate businesses.

To curb this situation, programmes such as security awareness programmes can be organised to sensitize participants on the need to be cautious with data sharing over the Internet.

That being established, this sociology project topic provides adequate guidelines on developing security awareness programmes while also providing its implication on safety. see source below for full paper work.
