The strategy, prepared by the Ministry of ICT will address loopholes in
Information Security. It is aimed at providing the Government with the
implementation plans to protect Kenya's ICT cyber assets.

*Why should you do so?*

Even with current investments in ICT by the government, banking and
telecommunications sectors, there are still serious security loopholes and
most organizations do not factor the possible risks while setting up
systems. With evidence of increasing online vulnerabilities, the Government
of Kenya (GoK) and leaders in the private sector need to make improvements
to their Cybersecurity infrastructure. Private and public organizations are
required to invest in information security systems to prevent hackers from
accessing their networks, systems and data.

*Outcome:* Comprehensive new strategy document that will guide the
management of Cybersecurity issues in the country.
