MINISTRY OF INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY
CONCLUSION
As Kenya’s remarkable ICT growth continues, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of public
and private sector information across Kenya’s ICT infrastructure is of significant importance. Kenya’s
National Cybersecurity Strategy serves to demonstrate the government’s commitment to improving Kenya’s
cybersecurity posture and share overarching vision, goals, and objectives. Implementation of the strategy
is supported by an evolving national Cybersecurity Master Plan, which has been developed to define (and
ultimately govern) a prioritized roadmap of discreet cybersecurity projects.
Both the strategy and master plan are critical to securing the online environment for citizens, industry,
and foreign partners; increasing the Kenyan people’s confidence in online transactions, data security, fraud
protection, and privacy; encouraging greater foreign investment and enhancing trade opportunities; and
enabling Kenya’s broader economic and societal goals.
