[Cyber-security-tech-mw-l] Cyber Security Strategy Draft Log Frame - safety of vulnerable groups

[Dr Paulos B Nyirenda]

I recall that the issue of "safety of vulnerable groups in cyberspace, especially the safety of 
children"  is very well covered in the Malawi Electronic Transactions and Cyber Security Act 
that we have been told has now been assented to and hence should be followed in 
developing the strategy

Is the Act now available for public use?

There were quite a few proposals for ammendments and  a lot of debate in Parliament on 
sections on this topic and we need to see the exact text in the passed Act 

Has it been gazzetted yet?

Regards,

Paulos
