[Mercy Njue]

As the government automates there is need to look into business continuity.
For example, when sending emails to some of the government bodies you find
that the mailbox is full, or mail server is down for quite some time.
During peak times when returning tax returns, website accessibility becomes
as an issue. As it(Government) automates, there is need for compliance in
business continuity.
