Every board loves to talk about “digitisation” and “firewalls.” But here’s the truth: the easiest way to hack a ministry, bank, or NGO is not through code, it’s through ghosts on payroll.
When HR fraud meets weak IT, cybercrime becomes institutionalized. That’s why I designed the Boardroom Payroll Integrity Tool, a no-excuses dashboard for leaders who want to know if their payroll is a fortress or a fraud pipeline.
Ask yourself:
a) Can you prove every person on payroll exists?
b) Who controls the power to add or remove names?
c) Are payroll anomalies linked to IT audit trails—or are you blind?
If your board is not asking these questions, you are not just paying ghosts and funding hackers.
“A ghost on payroll is not just stealing a salary. They are stealing your cyber defense.” – Mr. Strategy
This October, as part of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, I will be sharing 30 tools for boards, CEOs, and EXCOs, one every day. Tools that expose silent risks and give leaders weapons to fight back.
You and your team can now register for a free virtual Cybersecurity Awareness Session worth UGX 5 million, offered at no cost. Simply visit https://event.forensicsinstitute.org/cyber-security-awareness-month-2025/
