Yahoo! Email Address Subscribers
by Odhiambo Washington 07 Sep '17

07 Sep '17

Hello Listers, If you are a user of @yahoo.SOMETHING e-mail address or anything that is related to Yahoo (there are a number), then please note that someone using Yahoo or it's affiliates decided to flag mails from this mailing list as spam. I woke up this morning to hundreds of bounces from Yahoo. You might NOT be able to see mail from this list for some time. Unfortunately, as one of the List Administrators, I am not so keen on resolving this, because I think people are supposed to have stopped using Yahoo anyway. Hopefully it resolves itself. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 "Oh, the cruft."

ISACA The State of Cybersecurity 2016 Report - 6 out of 10 Do Not Believe
by WANGARI KABIRU 06 Sep '17

http://www.isaca.org/cyber/Documents/State-of-Cybersecurity-infographic.pdf "...6 out of 10 do not believe that their staff can handle anything beyond simple cybersecurity incidents...'' For organisation wide vulnerability reduction, and especially with SMEs for whom minor shocks may be catastrophic, the skills and know-how must be organisation wide, not just resident with the tech teams and increasingly with the Boards who determine the investment direction. Be blessed. Regards/Wangari--- Pray God Bless. 2013Wangari circa - "Being of the Light, We are Restored Through Faith in Mind, Body and Spirit; We Manifest The Kingdom of God on Earth".

[OPINION] - Whitehat Thinking – a necessity to confirm and protect integrity of election systems
by Mbugua Njihia 04 Sep '17

04 Sep '17

I have always assumed that as a default, any political party or coalition will have an in-house team of greyhats, owing to the fact that the IEBC did not make a call for engagement at the time of going live with the Kenya Integrated Election Management System and it modules. Neither do they have an active or publicly known bug bounty program - http://www.mbuguanjihia.com/business/whitehat-thinking-necessity-confirm-pr… *Regards,* Mbugua Njihia ᐧ
