ok... i'm "retracting my request" to read the file for many reasons, such as respecting people's privacy. i can only hope iebc has learnt to be more stringent over the physical security of their data (i got it very easily, and many people have it). passwords and encryption is not good enough alone. i haven't "analysed" the file per say. just tried to open it in a nice, viewable format. barely gave it 10 minutes... its in an 'inconvenient' format only iebc tech understands. and from the reactions here, it'll probably stay that way. i guess curiosity did indeed kill the cat. ..... as you were.

what? is your ID data public, or passport or nssf or NHIF? why is it that IEBC for some reason that i seem to have an idea of (I really do, i just find it hard to accept) cant seem to secure my data? would I be right today if I sued them for serious breach of contract, which contract? should COFEK look into this..yes and yes....I have a tacit covenant that they would secure my data. I think you also need an education in privacy/laws

+1 Your in campus and analyzing data, that's great for your career Kudos man. -1 Your analyzing sensitive and potentially in possession of the same. Bad move. -1 Distributing the said data. -1 Using your an account that identifies you...
IEBC data is public property, so are police guns and military tanks... To be used with authority from the governing body.

@John Doe,
Why are you so interested in accessing this data? The data is the property of IEBC, and as such, you should not be even in possession of the file.
Your friends/crew who copied the data should not have done so. The fact that someone has given you a job to do, doesn't mean you take off with their data, even if they had not take precautions to protect it.
You need to tread carefully with this, seeing there is the case of an election dispute in court touching on the integrity of the whole election exercise.
I would advice your to remove the file you have uploaded online and stop trying to decrypt and read the information. I know some of you college type feel young and invincible but where unauthorized access to information is involved, you should always be careful.
