“Ayyikliz Team promises that they will visit your areas too…”
No one really knows what that meant, but whether it was just a bad joke or not, the issue needs to be addressed. The State House Director of Digital Innovation and Diaspora, Dennis Itumbi said that the security of all government websites needed to be fastened.
“Most of the government websites are not interactive, and are outdated; it’s a high time we work on this issue as its not the first time this (hacking) has happened,” he stated.“It can only take one weekend to work on these websites, we will look for young Kenyan digital creatives that can come up with creative websites, we need to give them a chance.”
Back in 2012, more than 100 government websites were hacked by an Indonesian hacker.
