October 2026 | Nairobi | Kenya
In October 2026, Nairobi, East Africa’s leading technology and innovation hub will host CYSEC KENYA, bringing the CYSEC GLOBAL series to one of Africa’s fastest-growing digital economies. As Kenya accelerates digital transformation across financial services, government, healthcare, energy, and smart infrastructure, cybersecurity has become both a national and regional priority.
CYSEC KENYA convenes senior government officials, regulators, CISOs, technology leaders, critical-infrastructure operators, innovators, and academia to address the evolving cyber risks shaping Kenya and the wider East African region.
Kenya’s leadership in mobile finance, e-government services, cloud adoption, and digital entrepreneurship has positioned it at the forefront of Africa’s digital economy. However, this rapid innovation has expanded the cyber threat surface, making resilience, regulatory alignment, and skills development more critical than ever. National initiatives such as the National Cybersecurity Strategy and KE-CERT/CC, alongside growing public-private collaboration, underscore Kenya’s commitment to securing its digital ecosystem.
Across two days of high-level keynotes, expert-led panel discussions, technical deep dives, and real-world cyber simulations, CYSEC KENYA 2026 will spotlight practical defense strategies, regional threat intelligence, emerging technologies, and collaborative frameworks to protect digital economies at scale.
CYSEC KENYA is the convergence point for East Africa’s cyber leadership where strategy meets execution and regional cooperation strengthens collective resilience.
Kenya stands at the center of Africa’s digital evolution, widely recognized as a regional technology powerhouse. With leadership in mobile finance, fintech innovation, e-government, cloud services, and digital entrepreneurship, cybersecurity has become a strategic imperative for both national and regional growth.
As digital adoption accelerates, Kenya faces rising cyber threats across financial services, government platforms, telecommunications, healthcare, and critical infrastructure. This growing exposure has intensified the need for strong cyber governance, advanced security technologies, and a skilled cybersecurity workforce.
Kenya’s proactive cybersecurity framework anchored by the National Cybersecurity Strategy, KE-CERT/CC, and sector-specific regulations, demonstrates a clear commitment to resilience, incident response, and public-private collaboration. As a regional digital gateway, Kenya’s cyber posture directly impacts East Africa’s broader digital stability.
Nairobi’s role as a global innovation hub and regional headquarters for multinational organizations makes it the ideal host for CYSEC KENYA. With increasing investment in digital infrastructure and cross-border connectivity, Kenya offers a powerful platform for collaboration, market access, and knowledge exchange.
CYSEC KENYA reinforces Kenya’s leadership in securing East Africa’s digital ecosystem and advancing a safer, more trusted digital future for the region.
The Kenyan cybersecurity market is currently valued around USD 60–70 million in 2024 and is projected to expand steadily through the decade, with forecasts estimating it could reach over USD 90 million by 2030–2031 as digital adoption, regulatory enforcement, and institutional cyber investment grow
