Re: [kictanet] Levels of Big Data Maturity
*Levels of Big Data Maturity* *Level 1: Infancy* Thinking about it, There is an initial Big Data Environment in place. Current in the proof of concept / pilot stage. *Level 2: Technical Adoption* Organisations using Big Data Mostly for storage or to transform. Usage primarily by IT industry. Some Big Data exploratory analytics. *Level 3: Business Adoption* Leveraging discrete LOB use cases, structured and unstructured analysis. Using predictive analytics applied to Big Data. *Level 4: Enterprise Adoption* Leveraging use cases for multiple LOBs. Integrated metadata, quality, and governance across Big Data. Predictive insights integrated into business operations. *Level 5: DAaaS (Data Analytics as a Service)* Operating as a data service provider, self-serve data. Collaboration and sharing analytics across the enterprise. As the data discourse is enhanced, the above outlines different levels of adoption in Big data that puts a sharp focus of where are and what we need to do. Would be interesting to hear view points that would argue against that we are in the Infancy stage.

Kenya registered about 19,700,000 [1] voters to participate in the 2017 elections. As part of the registration, all voters gave their biometrics [2], which included all fingerprints, and facial features. All this data will be preloaded on the voting devices that will be distributed in over 45,000 polling stations. Assuming two devices per polling station, that is 90,000 devices in the hands of 90,000 different people with access to biometric data of 19.7 million Kenyans.
IEBC gave a contract to a French firm to implement the different aspects of electronic voting. Is the 18m biometric information now in the hands of foreign agents? Are there any data protection mechanisms to secure biometric data of the citizenry?
This is why Data protection and privacy laws should be a big debate going forward. The MAG can find a proper way of framing these concerns.

Dear Victor, It would be very interesting to get it from IEBC on the reliability/security/robustness/usability of their systems. Taking
note that
it is quite hard for kenyans to use the IEBC website perform basic functions like applying for the recently advertised vacancies. Are we expecting a repeat of 2013 elections where the VBR kits kept failing? What measures have they put in place? I would also like to to hear from social network reps e.g Facebook/Whatsapp on the issue of fake news in the Kenyan elections. Regards, R.Ojino

Hi Victor, I would very much be interested in a discussion on Internet shutdown(s) in Kenya in the upcoming election- their possibility, legal basis,
actors
etc. I would hope to hear from the regulator, NCIC, Safaricom, LSK and users on their view about shutdowns. It would also be great to hear from the Af* community on the outcome of the anti-shutdown proposal that was considered during the recently concluded Africa Internet Summit. Looking forward,

Greetings Listers,
The Kenya Internet Governance Forum (KIGF) is an annual meeting that brings together various stakeholder groups to dialogue on ICT and
Internet
policy. While the discussions give soft policy outcomes, KIGF is a knowledge sharing platform that informs and inspires policy actors in both the
and private sectors. The national forum also feeds into the regional and global IGFs through a chain of reporting and representation to the regional and global IGFs to ensure a bottom up Internet policy development
and a strong link between global internet policies and the national one. This year, the meeting shall be held on the 6 July 2017 at the Laico Hotel, Nairobi.
On behalf of the local Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG), we'd be interested to hear your views on the topics that you think ought to be discussed during this year's KIGF17.
To enable us track them, kindly share them in the format below:
a) Proposed topic(s):
E.g. Positive Social media use during elections
b) Why the topic is important or relevant:
E.g. We have the general election in August and since social media is playing a key role in public engagement and expression during the elections, it would be important to discuss the potential risk for abuse or shutdowns and make recommendations to encourage positive social media use.
c) Proposed speakers (if any):
E.g. Would wish to hear from an MP, NCIC, BAKE, or Facebook
We are working on a tight schedule, but we'll be happy to receive your feedback by the 14 June 2017.
We shall then compile your input and prepare the topics for the
online discussion scheduled for 19 - 23 June and the final IGF Programme. We'll also get in touch with the proposed speakers to bring them into the room.
Here's the Kenya IGF 2016 Report for your review.
