A Vision of a Smarter Nairobi
by Marie-Ann Kinyanjui 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Listers, Alert! Shameless plug follows... but I hope it will be of genuine interest :-) Yesterday IBM launched a white paper titled "A Vision of a Smarter City - How Nairobi can lead the way to a prosperous and sustainable future" - while it does not claim to hold all the answers for Nairobi, I think its a nice starting point for more discussion on how technology can resolve some of Nairobi issues. I particularly liked one suggestion in the white paper - using mobile signal density to track traffic flow. You can download it here: http://www-05.ibm.com/za/office/pdf/IBM_-_A_Vision_of_a_Smarter_City_-_Nair… Hope you find it useful. Kui.

Fw: [AfrICANN-discuss] Internet security demands a Europe-wide strategy, says Neelie Kroes
by alice＠apc.org 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

More on cybersecurity/cybercrime, approaches really must be global and multi-stakeholder. Best Alice Internet security demands a Europe-wide strategy, says Neelie Kroes http://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/view/24744/internet-security-demands-a… 23 March 2012 Internet security cannot be confined to national security agencies because cyber threats come from around the world and readily cross borders, according to European Commission vice-president Neelie Kroes. That is why there is a need for a Europe-wide strategy to provide a comprehensive response to address the specific requirements of security in cyberspace, she said in Brussels. Internet security is not a problem that is going to go away, but a safer internet can be achieved with an approach that is built on the single market, gives the right incentives to the private sector, invests in supply, and has an international outlook, said Kroes. The strategy will "enable a step-change in how we ensure internet security. It will be embedded in our principles for internet governance," she said. The Commission is due to present its plan for a "European strategy for internet security" in the third quarter of this year, which will ask EU member states to guarantee minimum capabilities to respond adequately to threats and share critical information in a secure and confidential manner. Member states will be required to establish competent authorities to centralize information to enable the creation of a regional forum for collaboration with the private sector, support a European cyber incident contingency plan, and exchange best practices. Kroes also wants to expand data breach notification obligations from the telecoms sector to other sectors that rely on critical information infrastructure, such as energy, water, finance and transport. She pointed out that the recent World Economic Forum<http://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/view/23201/cyber-risk-now-in-the-top-f…>estimated that there is a one in 10 chance of a major breakdown of critical information infrastructure in the next decade. "Prompt reporting means competent national authorities can react quickly to incidents and minimize their impact," she said. Kroes also called for investment in innovation for security technologies, including through the EU budget. "We have called for proposals on how to fight botnets. But research alone isn't enough. We need to fill the gaps in the value chain, and seamlessly bring bright ideas to the market," she said. *This story was first published by **Computer Weekly*<http://www.computerweekly.com/news/2240147311/Internet-security-demands-a-E…> -----Original Message----- From: Anne-Rachel Inné <annerachel(a)gmail.com> Sender: africann-bounces(a)afrinic.net Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2012 09:02:04 To: <africann(a)afrinic.net> Reply-To: africann(a)afrinic.net Subject: [AfrICANN-discuss] Internet security demands a Europe-wide strategy, says Neelie Kroes _______________________________________________ AfrICANN mailing list AfrICANN(a)afrinic.net https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/africann

POPULAR BLOGGER DENNIS ITUMBI ARRESTED
by Grace Mutung'u (Bomu) 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

This may be of interest from a freedom of information and national security balance perspective... http://thejackalnews.com/media-news/news-media/1755-police-arrest-journalis… *JACKAL NEWS -* Journalist and blogger Dennis Itumbi has been arrested by the Kenya police investigating the origin of a document claiming that the British government was pushing for the indictment of President Kibaki by the International Criminal Court. The Jackal News sources said they understood that, besides the ''UK document'' issue, his detention is also part of police investigation into the claims by the ICC prosecutor that some witnesses in the case against four Kenyans had been threatened. Itumbi was arrested by the Criminal Investigations Department officers in Embu Thursday evening and brought to Nairobi for questioning, several sources told Jackal News. He is being held at the Muthaiga Police Station, where he spoke to reporters who visited him early this morning (Friday). It was not immediately clear the nature of evidence that police may have against him over the document tabled in parliament on March 8. Speculation on Twitter suggested that police had been arrested him for having access to ‘‘classified documents’’, whatever that means. His arrest came amid a move by the journalst last week that he had given a notice to sue a blogger who allegedly linked him to the writing of the document, which also claimed that the British government was seeking the detention, by ICC of MPs William Ruto and Uhuru Kenyatta. ‘‘Media freedom is under threat in this country. The new constitution, even if it was voted on overwhelmingly is not working,’’ Itumbu told reporters from Muthaiga Police station early Friday. ‘‘No matter the nature of intimidation, I will not reveal the sources of the information I have. It is suicidal. I will die for it,’’ he said, suggesting that police may be seeking to question him about what he knows about the controversial document. A friend, Martin Gitau, posted on Twitter overnight: ‘‘Intimidation as blogger Dennis Itumbi arrested by CID officers in Embu.’’ The police had not issued any statement by 2am Friday. Last week, Itumbi, through his lawyer, issued a formal complaint against Robert Alai, asking him to apologize for allegedly linking him to the ‘‘British government’’ document or, failure to which, he would institute legal proceedings. Itumbi has said he is not the source of the document in question. Meanwhile, Attorney General Githu Muigai has ordered police to investigate claims by the ICC prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, of email hacking and intimidation of witnesses. Muigai said that he had received a complaint from Ocampo that there was “hacking of email accounts of a person of interest” to his office. -- Grace L.N.

Fw: [AfrICANN-discuss] US ISPs commit to new cybersecurity measures

FYI Best Alice US ISPs commit to new cybersecurity measures The recommendations from an FCC advisory committee target botnets, domain name fraud and Internet route hijacking <http://www.csoonline.com/article/702666/us-isps-commit-to-new-cybersecurit= y-measures#disqus_thread> By Grant Gross http://www.csoonline.com/article/702666/us-isps-commit-to-new-cybersecurity= -measures March 22, 2012 =97 IDG News Service =97 A group of U.S. Internet service providers, including the four largest, have committed to taking new steps to combat three major cybersecurity threats, based on recommendations from a U.S. Federal Communications Commission advisory committee. The ISPs, including AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Verizon Communications, committed Thursday to implement measures to fight botnets, domain name fraud and Internet route hijacking. The FCC's Communications, Security, Reliability, and Interoperability Council (CSRIC) adopted the recommendations for voluntary action by ISPs the same day. Eight wired and wireless ISPs, representing about 80 percent of the broadband subscribers in the U.S., are members of CSRIC<http://transition.fcc.gov/pshs/advisory/csric/members.html>and signed on to the recommendations. "These actions will have a significant positive impact on Internet security," FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said. "If you own a PC, you'll be significantly better protected against your computer [being] taken over by a bad actor, who could destroy your private files or steal your personal information. If you shop or bank online, you'll be significantly better protected against being directed to an illegitimate website and having your credit card number stolen." The recommendations preserve the open architecture of the Internet and protect Internet users' privacy, Genachowski said. The CSRIC recommendations embraced by the ISPs include an antibot code of conduct. ISPs agreed to educate customers about botnets and to take steps to identify botnet activity on their networks. ISPs will also warn customers about botnet infections on their computers and offer assistance to customers with compromised computers, under the code of conduct. The ISPs also committed to implement a set of best practices to secure the Internet's Domain Name System by implementing DNSSEC, a set of secure protocol extensions designed to prevent DNS spoofing. CSRIC also recommended that the Internet industry develop an Internet Protocol-route highjacking framework, including new technologies and practices to limit the number of times that Internet traffic is misdirected= . T-Mobile USA, one of the ISPs signing on to the recommendations, called cybersecurity an "extremely important issue." The company supports voluntary, industrywide deployment of DNSSEC, T-Mobile said in a statement. ISPs will need help from other Internet companies to implement the security measures, said Bob Quinn, AT&T's senior vice president for federal regulatory affairs. "DNSSEC is predicated upon a chain of trust across the Internet," he wrote in a blog post<http://attpublicpolicy.com/cybersecurity/cybersecurity-and-t= he-fccs-csric-recommendations/>. "[CSRIC] recommends that key industry segments such as banking, healthcare and others sign their respective domains and that software developers, such as web-browser developers, study how and when to incorporate DNSSEC validation functions into their software." The botnet recommendations see a "significant role" for other companies, including security software vendors and operating system developers, he added. "Keeping the Internet safe for consumers to browse, transact business and communicate is an important objective not only for AT&T but any other business that operates online," he wrote. *Grant Gross covers technology and telecom policy in the U.S. government for *The IDG News Service*.
