Kenya and the United Kingdom
are exploring deeper cooperation on cybersecurity, with the Communications
Authority of Kenya (CA) hosting Mr Ollie Whitehouse, Chief Technology Officer
at the United Kingdom’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), for a courtesy
meeting.
The engagement focused on
strengthening the longstanding UK–Kenya cybersecurity partnership and
exchanging insights on the evolving cyber threat landscape.
Discussions also covered
approaches to enhancing cyber resilience across government systems and critical
digital infrastructure, as well as opportunities to deepen collaboration
between the NCSC and CA.
The meeting provides a
platform for the two institutions to strengthen information exchange and
cooperation as governments and critical infrastructure operators respond to
increasingly complex cybersecurity threats.
The engagement forms part of
ongoing efforts by Kenya and the UK to reinforce cybersecurity collaboration
and improve resilience across critical digital systems.
