The government is set to spend Rwf5.7 billion on national cyber security to cushion the country against threats from rising levels of cybercrime, officials at the Ministry of Youth and ICT have said.
The money, according to officials, will be useful in increasing the level of cyber security awareness and protecting key ICT assets against attacks through building local capabilities to respond to attacks, foster international co-operation on cyber security and create a legal and regulatory environment to mitigate cyber vulnerabilities.
