The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) is preparing to conduct an audit of all digital data managed by the Social Health Authority (SHA) due to growing concerns over data security.

This decision follows an audit that revealed the government does not own the system operating SHA, raising concerns about the safety of Kenyans' personal information.

Data Commissioner Immaculate Kassait announced that her office would carry out the audit on the digital health system operated by SHA. "One of the places we have identified to do an audit is on the digital health information.

That one is something we have undertaken as an office to do an audit on," Kassait stated.
