About the Founder
Gabriel Odusanya
Founder & CEO, OffShield Security
Gabriel Odusanya is a seasoned Application Security Engineer, Penetration Tester, and passionate Cybersecurity Educator. With years of experience helping fintechs, startups, and growing companies build secure applications and infrastructures, he founded OffShield Security to solve a critical problem in Africa: the massive shortage of practical, job-ready cybersecurity talent.
Driven by rising cyber threats across the continent and limited access to quality training, Gabriel created OffShield as Africa’s Premier Cybersecurity Academy & Services Firm. His vision is clear: to train, intern, and equip the next generation of cyber professionals and engineers who can defend organizations, governments, and critical systems.
Through OffShield, Gabriel combines deep industry expertise with a strong commitment to accessibility. The academy offers hands-on programs, real-world internships, and professional services while running a robust scholarship initiative so talented individuals can learn regardless of their financial situation.
Gabriel is also an active tech advocate, speaker, and content creator dedicated to demystifying cybersecurity and helping Africans build rewarding careers in the field.
