At least 5 companies in Kenya have been hit by the WannaCry virus attack that has affected over 300,000 users globally amid warnings by tech experts underlining the vulnerability of local firms.

It is expected to get worse as about 80 per cent of the country's large and small organisations' back-up systems run on Microsoft Windows, which is the malware’s target.
