Cyber Security and Protection Bill (Senate) was withdrawn. On Thu, Mar 23, 2017 at 9:50 AM, Odhiambo Washington via kictanet < [email protected]> wrote:
Assuming that Alex Mutuku managed to siphon KES 4B from KRA (and perhaps some from NTSA and any other govt computer system), I am at that point where I have to ask what is the role of the Govt ICT Services (there is a body like that, yes?) or it is that KRA/NTSA/Other govt agencies run their own ICT Services without a central coordinating agency that standardizes on procedures/policies? If it's true that there was this heist at KRA, then I see no reason not to suspect there are (will be) other heists in other govt agencies, hence my question.
Secondly, I remember about the Computers and Cybercrime Bill 2016. I think it was shelved, or maybe just gathering dust somewhere, or was it ultimately signed into an Act? Did it become law and so forms the basis upon which Alex Mutuku is being charged??
During the Ndemo days, I would expect to get a comprehensive response to the two questions above in just a few hours. In this era Sammy Itemere+Victor Kyalo, it's just so silent. Maybe a policy shift in the Ministry.
Okay, what happened to the Computers and Cybercrime Bill? :)
