All State-owned websites will be hosted locally in order to curb rising cases of cyber security attacks. This was a key resolution at a crisis meeting held on Thursday between top security officials and the Ministry of ICT. Held at Communication Authority of Kenya (CAK), the meeting was called to discuss the safety preparedness of the government to handle cyber attacks. It comes just days after hacking of the Kenya Defence Forces' social media accounts including the official email account of the military spokesperson Emmanuel Chirchir. In attendance were ICT principal secretary Joseph Tiampati, representatives of the National Intelligence Service, Kenya Defence Forces, CID, CAK director-general Francis Wangusi and ICT Authority chief executive. http://www.nation.co.ke/business/Cyber-Security-Attacks-ICT-Ministry/-/996/2... ______________________ Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya twitter.com/lordmwesh "There are some men who lift the age they inhabit, till all men walk on higher ground in that lifetime." - Maxwell Anderson
