Bobanex Assure Ltd delivers elite penetration testing, GRC advisory, digital forensics, and cybersecurity education — built for Africa's threat landscape, trusted across 20+ countries.
All assessments mapped to the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, giving Nigerian organisations audit-ready deliverables.
Our findings are enriched with contextual African threat intelligence — from fintech fraud rings to healthcare data breaches.
Every engagement delivers CVSS-scored, OWASP-mapped, executive-ready reports your board can act on.
Unique in Africa — Bobanex Assure secures organisations while BBCLEM builds the next generation of defenders.
Too many organisations in Nigeria and across Africa receive generic reports written for Western contexts that miss the actual threat landscape — unregulated fintech channels, healthcare data aggregators, and government infrastructure with legacy exposure.
Bobanex Assure bridges this gap. Founded by Bolaji Bankole, a certified practitioner with hands-on experience across VAPT, GRC, OSINT, and digital forensics, we deliver rigorous, locally-contextualised security services that meet international standards.

The VAPT course completely changed how I approach security. Real Nigerian scenarios, real tools, real methodology. I passed my OSCP within 3 months of completing the programme.
The GRC programme was the most thorough I've attended. The NDPA 2023 module alone saved our organisation from a potential regulatory fine. Absolutely recommend to every compliance officer in Nigeria.
BB personally mentored our entire security team through cloud hardening. The depth of knowledge and the way he connects international frameworks to African context is unmatched on this continent.
We bring sector-specific threat modelling and regulatory knowledge to every engagement.
PCI DSS assessments, mobile banking VAPT, SWIFT security reviews, and anti-fraud control testing for CBN-regulated institutions.
EHR platform testing, telemedicine API security, and NDPA-aligned patient data protection for digital health and health tech platforms across Nigeria.
OT/ICS security assessments, SCADA network hardening, and resilience planning for oil & gas and utility operators.
Classified infrastructure assessments, national ID system security reviews, and capacity building for government cybersecurity teams.
Payment gateway security, customer data protection, and PCI DSS gap assessments for Nigeria's fast-growing retail and logistics platforms.

Bobanex Assure's VAPT report was the most thorough and actionable we've ever received. They found issues our previous vendor missed, and the remediation support was exceptional.
Their GRC advisory transformed how we approach compliance. The ISO 27001 implementation roadmap was practical, phased, and perfectly calibrated to our organisation's capacity. Highly recommend.
When we had a suspected data breach, Bobanex Assure contained the incident in under 4 hours and delivered a full forensic report within the week. Their DFIR team is elite.

Yes. We serve clients in 20+ countries across Africa, the UK, the US, and the Middle East. Most engagements are conducted remotely, though we offer on-site assessments for clients who require physical access testing or executive training.
Our GRC practice covers ISO/IEC 27001:2022, NIST CSF 2.0, PCI DSS v4.0, GDPR, and the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA 2023). We can tailor assessments to any combination of these frameworks, or help you build an integrated compliance programme.
Absolutely. All BBCLEM courses are available as corporate group bookings, either at your premises or in our training facility. We also develop bespoke curricula aligned to your organisation's specific tools, threat landscape, and compliance requirements.

Bobanex Assure Ltd was founded by Bolaji Bankole with a clear mission: to raise the bar for cybersecurity practice across Africa. Too many security firms sell expertise they don't have, producing reports that look good but protect nothing.
We operate differently. Every engagement is led by a certified practitioner with real hands-on experience. Every report is structured for action, not filing. And through BBCLEM, every engagement contributes to a wider mission — building a generation of African cybersecurity professionals who can defend their continent's digital future.
