I have read through the bill, and - although I am not a lawyer - it looks like it has been well thought out and makes sense (unlike *another* recent bill!). My main concern, with this (or any other) bill, is where it may be open to abuse, intimidation, and/or corruption. I hope those with 'legal' minds may discover the specific areas which may be open to abuse, and where further clarification within the bill may address those concerns. Specifically, related to those whose work involves the provision, and/or testing of the security of systems to guard against possible cybercrimes. I would like to see a section where specific exemption is allowed where permission by a person in authority over a computer system or telecommunications network is given to a specific person or organisation to conduct testing of a system's security - commonly referred to as 'penetration testing' or 'pentest' My initial thoughts.

1. Re: DVR video issues (Okechukwu) Slave the DVR hard disk on your PC and use any Linux version Live CD to retrieve and transfer the files your PC hard drive. However, you are likely to obtain several useless files as well as some small difference in video quality.

<OT> Note to job/internship applicants
by Peter Karunyu 13 Jul '16

13 Jul '16

Due to my contribution on the "Intern required" thread, I have received two "applications" within a few minutes. Let me offer some unsolicited advise to potential job/internship applicants on this forum 1. Read the instructions in the email carefully regarding how and where you should apply. Ability to follow instructions on email is a key skill in making it in the job market. 2. When applying via email, include a "cover email" A cover email is basically an official job application letter, only typed out on email. Equivalent in stature to cover letter. Do not just attach your CV and expect the employer to know what your are applying for. 3. Coloured and fancy fonts in your cover email might look nice to you, but they might not to the potential employer. Choose wisely.

DVR video issues

12 Jul '16

Hi y'all, I have an interesting problem: I need to copy videos that were recorded on a cctv system. The videos are on two harddisks. Connecting the disks to a pc or via usb with an adapter & casing doesn't work. I was told the only way the videos can be copied is if they are in a DVR machine. The client I got them from is using theirs so I need to get me a temporary one to do the transfer. Can anyone assist? -- Mutinda Kitana P.O. Box 55141-00200 Nairobi. Tel: +254-722944455
