[kictanet] Any law governing CCTV management in Kenya?

[Walubengo J]

 True, the charge sheet is a bit faulty.  Claiming it was un-authorized access, the employer can contradict and claim otherwise i.e the employees had valid access to the footage.
I think the charge sheet could have been framed better under the new Data Protection Act of 2019.
The company & its employees violated the purpose limitation principle which states that data collected and processed for a particular legitimate purpose (e.g security surveillance) cannot be re-purposed and used for another agenda (e.g gossip, lighting up the internet, or reporting my movement to spouse ;-)
A charge sheet based on data protection principle may have a higher chance of success and maybe better penalties.
walu.

 Hello David,
This can be found in the Cyber Crime Act.Unless the charge sheet is amended otherwise. (''An authorized interception of a computer data contrary to section 17(1) of computer misuse and cybercrime act'' )On the contrary, someone said the ''employer'' can move down to the employment contract on the do's and dont's.
