PSKorner, a security knowledge platform, launched in Nigeria to get businesses to treat security as part of risk management and business continuity rather than a physical protection function.
Buduka Addey, its founder and national general secretary of the Association of Licensed Private Security Practitioners of Nigeria (ALPSPN), said the platform will bring security professionals, business executives, policymakers, researchers and facility managers into discussions around emerging risks, technology, governance and professional practice.
Addey said organisations often approach security through measures such as guards, access control and surveillance, without sufficiently connecting those investments to wider business risks.
‘If people have the right information, they will take rational, informed decisions, transforming how individuals, organisations, and industries think about security,’ she said.
According to her, the platform will use interviews, case studies and practice to help organisations identify security risks and make better decisions about their security investments. ‘Better security begins with better thinking,’ Addey said.
PSKorner is also using international industry events to build its network and broaden its coverage. It took its platform to the 2026 ASIS Sub-Saharan Africa Security Conference in Cape Town, South Africa, where it interviewed security professionals on leadership, risk management, professional development and the changing security environment.
Among those featured was Eddie Sorrells, president of ASIS International, who spoke about his career progression from working as a security officer on the midnight shift while attending college to eventually moving into senior leadership.
‘People need to hear our story, not so we can build ourselves up, but so we can build up other people through our story,’ Sorrells said.
PSKorner also recorded interviews with Evan Steinberg, Eva Nolle, Tobias See, Sienna Dutkowski and Capt. Joe Awuni during the Cape Town conference. The interviews are expected to be released as individual episodes.
Addey said the international engagement was intended to connect African security professionals with wider global discussions and create a platform for sharing experience across the profession.
PSKorner plans to cover security intelligence, technology, risk governance, leadership, resilience, professional standards and the evolving relationship between public and private security.
