committee for cyber security be converted to a Working Group
(WG) to keep the momentum of the cyber security agenda to
ensure a quick implementation of the policy and strategy.
Description of Program/Initiative
The National Cyber Security Policy WG (NSCPWG) will be
made up of current policy drafting Adhoc technical committee
which composition represent a public private collaboration and
by virtue of the selection of the members, also represent a
bottom-up approach. New members may be added to
overcome any shortfall in skill such as legal expertise in the
conversion from the Adhoc Technical Committee to the
Working Group. The NCSPWG will assist the Ministry of
Communication to establish recommended specific programs
that require immediate attention such as the awareness
campaign for the first year of the policy.
Program/Initiative Implementation
Rationale
The rationale for the setting up of WG is to avoid any vacuum
between the adoption of the policy and the implementation of
the long term structures of the policy as well as begin a process
of awareness creation.
