Thank you Paul Roy for your positive outlook. Indeed Kictanet has proven itself as being able to work with government and achieve tangible objectives in creating solutions that benefit out society. Your 10 points action plan is something that can be discussed on the list and hand over to the policy makers. The CS of ICT, and the Permanent Secretaries have shown commitment and goodwill in working with the community.
What would a draft action plan look like?
Regards
This is really sad, I know govt has been trying to put in some effort. It seems good is not good enough. Instead of criticizing could we turn this forum using this new revelation to propose solutions?Can we develop a 10-point action plan to present to the government on the way forward to ensure such breaches are minimized? I know it cannot be 100% eliminated, however we can minimize the risk significantly.Over to you Ali, Grace, Walu..et alOn Thu, Apr 28, 2016 at 4:40 PM, Ahmed Mohamed Maawy via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:Unsubscribe or change your options at https://lists.kictanet.or.ke/mailman/options/kictanet/roykoikai%40gmail.comThe more reason ICT should be handled by competent and trained professionals in our public institutions.The fact no government is immune (wikileaks etc..) means that we really need to be serious about our ICT investments in our own institutions.On Thu, Apr 28, 2016 at 4:35 PM, Mwendwa Kivuva via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:_______________________________________________GoK seem to have been found sleeping by Anonmouse.
