Upgraded Era has officially launched Hack365 Global, a groundbreaking cybersecurity initiative set to transform the digital security landscape in West Africa and beyond. As the first of its kind in the region, Hack365 Global offers a fully immersive, 360-degree cybersecurity learning experience that combines live hacking labs, a Capture The Flag (CTF) platform, and hands-on virtual training sessions tailored to individuals, organizations, and government agencies.
This innovative platform sets a new benchmark for cybersecurity education, delivering real-world, practical exposure in ethical hacking, vulnerability assessment, digital forensics, red, blue, and purple team operations, secure software development, open-source intelligence, and more. It is designed for students, beginners, professionals, and enthusiasts eager to acquire in-demand cybersecurity skills applicable on a global scale.
At the heart of the program is the Hack365 Virtual Hacking Cyber Labs—a secure, virtualized environment that replicates real-world enterprise networks. These labs provide users with a safe space to learn, test, and perfect both offensive and defensive cyber techniques, equipping them with industry-ready skills and practical experience.
“Hack365 Global is more than a platform—it’s a movement,” said Victor PHIKPAROBO Idonor, Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director of Upgraded Era Solutions Ltd. “Through our cyber labs and hands-on sessions, we’re equipping a new generation of cybersecurity professionals and ensuring that Africans become a force in global cyber resilience, forming a base for developing and hiring information security skills for organizations and governments.”
To further enhance learning, Hack365Global.com hosts weekly hybrid instructor-led sessions featuring interactive labs, live demonstrations, and industry-specific scenarios—all designed to reinforce hands-on experience and professional development.

With operational footprints in the United Kingdom and the United States, the company is extending this vision to the international community.
In addition, Hack365 Global is open to partnerships and collaborations with organizations, academic institutions, and government agencies, integrating its practical labs into institutional learning and workforce development programs.
