Potential --- The internet does have the potential to empower and meaningfully contribute to sustainable development. However, there are still many persons globally who do not have access to technology and unfortunately who do not enjoy their human rights. In addition, the internet is not only used for good but to undertake activities that have serious negative consequences. Therefore, the internet can only be transformational if accessibility and awareness goes hand in hand. Hence, just as governments and other stakeholders are committed and advocate for digital transformation for the ease of doing business and to facilitate our development, they must be equally committed to developing and implementing cybersecurity infrastructure.
