ISO/IEC 27032 addresses, defined “Cybersecurity” or “the Cyberspace security” as the “preservation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information in the Cyberspace”. In turn “Cyberspace” is defined as “the complex environment resulting from the interaction of people, software and services on the Internet by means of technology devices and networks connected to it, which does not exist in any physical form”.
Cybersecurity is becoming a critical issue as most businesses now use computers in their day-to-day operations. The use of computers for the storage of the most sensitive data of most businesses presents its own risk and threat to business continuity.

In recent times the world is grappling with and chronic deadly diseases; the destruction of aquatic life (both flora and fauna) has damaged the natural habitat of man and some precious irreplaceable wildlife as the world keeps getting warmer and hotter, continuous depletion of soil quality has greatly altered food production (quality and quantity), depletion of earth resources has resulted to deterioration of life cycle and expectancy and opened the door for other calamities like earthquakes, cyclones, flooding to wreck our world. Evidently, all of these have caused irreplaceable damage to humankind.
Owing to the increasing cases of catastrophic and deadly events across the world, there is the need to change the narrative;
Process safety among many other values sustains economic prosperity and environmental sustainability. This is through periodic assessment and instalment of prevention equipment and personnel.

It also strengthens inter- sectoral harmony. As a multi-disciplinary approach, it brings professionals of different fields and synergizes a union dedicated safety and technical performance. This collaborative potential enhances a fusion of safety excellence and bond of technical excellence within stakeholders (Shariff, 2017) .
Technical process safety hinders major catastrophes from happenings (injuries and fatalities) and promote safe workforce (people and equipment). The entire process seeks to attain safety and loss of viable economic and productivity resources.
