Zoho Nigeria's Kehinde Ogundare Advocates Data Control

Mr. Kehinde Ogundare, the Country Head of Zoho Nigeria, advised Nigerian businesses to adopt a proactive stance in understanding and controlling their data in light of the increasing adoption of cloud technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI). This advice was shared during a fireside chat with Joan Aimuengheuwa, the Managing Editor of Techeconomy, at the inaugural GrowthX event held in Lagos.

Ogundare stressed the need for businesses to go beyond mere regulatory compliance and to consider critical aspects such as the storage location of their data, who has access to it, how it is utilized, and the level of control they maintain over their information. He posed several questions to business owners regarding their understanding of data sovereignty, urging them to reflect on their knowledge of data storage, usage, processing, and access.
