ICT Authority, KeNIC Sign MoU To Enhance Adoption Of ICT Standards And .ke Domains In Kenya
By MKT Reporter
The ICT Authority has signed a MoU with the Kenya Network Information Centre (KeNIC) to enhance the adoption of ICT standards, facilitate knowledge and skills transfer, and enhance the use of.ke domains.
The three-year collaboration aims to foster public trust in government digital initiatives and leverage the expertise and resources of both organisations to achieve a digitally transformed country.
One of the obligations of the MoU requires KeNIC to promote awareness on the importance and benefits of using .go.ke email addresses and domains, while the ICT Authority will promote the adoption of .go.ke email use in government Ministries and State Corporations to increase uptake and compliance.
ICT Authority CEO Stanley Kamanguya emphasised the importance of building a safe online environment as digital development continues to rise.
βWe shall also be looking at how we address the issue of digital governance. We believe we can then work together with Kenic to realise this,β said Kamanguya.
βWe have carefully looked at the security issue, and we shall work together to ensure these domains are secure so that businesses can also register this.
We believe that this collaboration will go a long way not only to support government institutions but also the private sector for them to be able to register on the .ke domain,β he added.
The partnership will help address strategic issues and provide more value to the Kenyan people, such as providing entrepreneurs with an online identity through .ke domains.
