Kenya Cyber Security Report 2015 Kenya Cyber Security Report 2015 About the Report The Kenya Cyber Security Report 2015 was researched, analysed, compiled and published by the Serianu Cyber Threat Intelligence Team in partnership with PKF Consulting and the USIU’s Centre for Informatics Research and Innovation (CIRI), at the School of Science and Technology. Data Collection and Analysis The data used to develop this report was obtained from different sources including; surveys and interviews with different stakeholders; several sensors deployed in Kenya and review of previous research reports. The sensors are non-intrusive network monitoring devices that perform the function of monitoring an organisation’s network for malware and cyber threat activities such as bruteforce attacks against the organisation’s servers. In an effort to enrich the data we are collecting, we have partnered with The Honeynet Project ™ and other global cyber intelligence partners to receive regular feeds on malicious activity within the country. Through such collaborative efforts we are able to anticipate, detect and identify new and emerging threats using our intelligent analysis-engine. The analysis-engine assists in identifying new patterns and trends in cyber threat sphere that are unique to Kenya. Partnerships through the Serianu CyberThreat Command Centre (SC3) Initiative are warmly welcomed in an effort to improve the state of cyber security in Kenya and across Africa. This initiative is geared towards collaborative cyber security projects in academia, industry, commercial and government organisations.
