The Regulatory Landscape

Compliance Has Changed.

Regulators no longer ask only whether organisations have policies. They expect evidence of operational capability: DPIA, RoPA, breach response, audit trail, governance reporting, and accountability.

NDPA 2023
Evidence of Compliance
The NDPC now inspects for documented processing records, filed DPIAs, and operational DPO functions — not just policy documents.
Board Accountability
Governance Responsibility
Boards carry personal accountability for NDPA compliance and digital trust governance under Nigerian regulatory frameworks.
ISACA DTEF
Measurable Digital Trust
Digital trust must be assessed, structured, and board-reported across seven governance domains — not merely asserted.
CAR Filing
Annual Audit Returns
Compliance Audit Returns must be filed with the NDPC annually by licensed DPCOs on behalf of data controllers and processors.

The gap between appearing compliant and being defensibly compliant is where NDPC enforcement happens. Controls designed for internal review fail under regulatory inspection, litigation scrutiny, and board accountability challenge.

Integrated Advisory

Integrated Advisory for Trust, Compliance, Assurance and Institutional Confidence.

SAC operates at the convergence of five disciplines — not as a collection of separate services, but as a coordinated model where each discipline reinforces the others. The integration is structural, not aspirational.

01

Privacy & Data Protection

End-to-end NDPA compliance: DCPMI registration, RoPA, DPIA, DPO enablement, and annual CAR filing — as a licensed NDPC DPCO.

Explore
02

Digital Trust & Cybersecurity

ISACA DTEF maturity assessments, board digital trust governance, and cybersecurity resilience frameworks across all seven DTEF domains.

Explore
03

Independent Assurance

Credible, objective assurance over governance, privacy, cybersecurity, risk, and financial controls — structured for external scrutiny, not internal comfort.

Explore
04

Financial Advisory

FCA-credentialled principals delivering accounting, capital structuring, transaction advisory, and financial governance to investor, lender, and regulator standards.

Integration is not a claim. It is the structure.

Core Services

What SAC Delivers.

Six service areas — each with a specific problem it resolves, a specific credential that authorises the delivery, and a specific link to go deeper.

NDPC-Licensed DPCO · NDPC/DCP/01784

Privacy & Data Protection Compliance

Problem: Organisations face NDPC enforcement risk with no documented processing records or operational DPO function.

SAC designs and implements end-to-end NDPA compliance programmes — including RoPA, DPIA execution, DPO enablement, and annual CAR filing as a licensed DPCO.

Explore service
NDPC Licensed · Annual Filing

NDPC Compliance Audit Returns

Problem: CAR filing is mandatory annually for DCPMI-classified organisations — most have not filed.

As a licensed DPCO, SAC prepares, certifies, and files Compliance Audit Returns with the NDPC on behalf of data controllers and processors.

Explore service
NDPA Section 30 · GAID Compliant

DCPMI Registration Advisory

Problem: Data Controllers and Processors of Major Importance are required to register with the NDPC — most have not confirmed their threshold status.

SAC assesses DCPMI classification thresholds, prepares and submits NDPC registration applications, and manages the annual renewal cycle.

Explore service
ISACA DTEF Certified Facilitator

Digital Trust & Cybersecurity

Problem: Boards acknowledge digital trust accountability under NDPA and CBN guidelines but have no governance framework to discharge it.

SAC conducts DTEF maturity assessments across all seven trust domains and builds the board governance structures, KPIs, and reporting dashboards required.

CISA · CRISC · CDPSE

Independent Assurance

Problem: Internal assurance functions lack the independence, objectivity, or multi-discipline scope that regulators and boards require.

SAC provides independent assurance over governance, privacy, cybersecurity, risk, and financial controls — co-sourced internal audit, forensic investigations, and governance reviews.

Explore service
Dual FCA Principals · FRCN Registered

Financial Advisory

Problem: Financial governance decisions require FCA-credentialled oversight to satisfy investor, lender, and regulatory scrutiny.

SAC delivers capital structuring, transaction due diligence, accounting systems advisory, and financial governance frameworks led by dual FCA-credentialled principals.
