I'm not sure whether how many really understand the threat of cyber security but I can tell you that on an international level it is reaching the stage of a fully fledged war. Just 2 weeks ago, President Obama passed the cyber wars laws with even empower the US Military to take decisive action if the need arises in future. These new laws are stirring the innovation environment with many security companies involved in testing and deploying various technologies to counter, detect and if necessary take the necessary action.

If the virus that disabled the Iranian Nuclear development, then you can imagine at what level security is being looked at. As an example, In Iran, they have even formed their own cyber defense teams as part of national security.

Is the next big war going to start from the internet? A big YES because the primary targets will be to disable say e.g. all command technologies. This will be on a global scale.

Obviously Kenya and the developing world will not be targets in the short term but which ever way the political interests go, unfortunately we become soft targets when such times will arise.

What I'd like to know is what the govt is doing to stir interest and cyber threats as a national agenda by not creating more entreprenuers who import and sell security solutions, but those who know security and can do something about it. I believe @Ty is one person not to mess around with on security issues, why has his level of talent been not provided the opportunity to grow the industry to higher levels.
