Search for firm to host sensitive State data on cloud begins
Kenya’s approach follows a model already used by governments that have sought to move away from ageing government infrastructure while retaining control over sensitive workloads.
The government has kicked off the search for a technology firm that will host its top secret information online as it shifts public sector systems away from fragmented physical server rooms and agency-owned data centres in a bid to cut maintenance costs.
Disclosures in the implementation guidelines of the 2025 Kenya Cloud Policy show the State has opened applications for interested providers to seek accreditation from a soon-to-be-established Cloud Adoption Committee (CAC).
