Abstract: In this paper the Technological threats of Information Security Analysis in Ibrahim Babangida library of Modibbo Adama University of technology, Yola, the data were obtained using structured questionnaire and personal interview. The threats identified were Power surge, Hacking, Computer Viruses and Poor internet Network services. The data were analysed using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The result of the analysis from the standpoint of severity revealed that Network failure which has weight of 0.4560 is the severest threat, next to it is Power surge (0.3470), followed by Computer virus (0.113) and hacking (0.0836) is last. The Consistency Ratio (CR) also was computed to be 0.0992 which indicated that the level of the inconsistency of the judgement was acceptable since CR- 0.1. We have also discovered that virus (0.412) is the most frequent threat, followed by network failure (0.293), power surge (0.187) and hacking (0.108) is last. The management were recommended to use power suppressor, stabilizer and electrician to monitor power supply, use anti-virus, screen system users and obtained authentic internet garget.
