Brian, you have pointed out issues that we need to consider at a national level with the increased use of the internet; What are the stakeholders initiatives are there in the area of promoting cyber-security and trust? For example is the Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT-KENYA: http://www.csirt.or.ke/) active? Do the provisions of the Draft ICT bill 2008 (Part IV – Electronic Transactions and Cybercrime) adequately address your concerns?
Just to add on to this - this past weekend, Georgia Government websites were hit with Denial of Service attacks (DOS) and claims are that it was done prior to the armed attack over the weekend. So while reviewing our policies we need to take into consideration that the Internet is a potential battleground with equally devastating effects.
