class=664134008-05052009>Its only when we have something valuable exposed that
we move to secure it. I think that the move toward securing the Kenyan netspace
will only take off once we have important content online such as financial
history, credit card information, address information and so on. This requires
legislation. The FOI act should be speeded up to 'force' government to avail
data online. The recently signed (then unsigned?) law on communications has some
enabling legislation for e-commerce. Not sure it takes into account
security but government should be clear on who the onus to secure data on
one's network is. I think more a problem for industry players than
'Wanjiku'...If you create a site where you require my credit card details then
by all means you should take the blow if someone steals the info and misuses my
card!</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

many other Kenyans, we frequently register to use various online services
provided by the government and businesses. The registration process
requires that we provide personal information including physical, postal
address, telephone numbers, credit card numbers, etc. The younger
generation and the young-at-heart are readily sharing “personally identifiable
information” including photos and events through social networking sites
including facebook, youtube, myspace, flickr, twitter, etc. </SPAN><SPAN

information collected and made available in the public domain such as the
electoral register, telephone directory can be combined with information for
example from supermarkets loyalty cards to create valuable market
information to track individual preferences and purchase
profiles. This information may unfortunately be subject to abuse and
theft. Consequently, ‘trust’ in policies and the security measures
that the government and businesses establish to protect user information is
therefore an essential element for the success of e-transactions (both
e-government and e-commerce)</SPAN><SPAN
