The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) has lifted the lid on the extent of data breaches Kenyans are dealing with.

By September 2022, just months into the operationalisation of new data laws, the ODPC had received 1,030 complaints and had admitted 555 of the cases, representing more than half of them. It is not surprising that 54 percent of the cases admitted were complaints against digital lenders.
