dc.description.abstract | E-commerce in Kenya continues to grow in leaps and bounds mainly driven by increased
affordability of smartphones, greater internet penetration and affordability and the very
extensive automation of government services at the national and county government levels.
The success stories and positive impacts in the form of greater convenience, efficiency,
increased business revenues and improved revenue collections among others are well
known. However, the practice has experienced a great number of challenges most of which
have gone unreported and undocumented making it difficult for eCommerce practitioners
to learn from the challenges of their counterparts. This study sought to develop a structured
body of knowledge on the specific aspect of data breaches in the eCommerce practice in
Kenya and examined the occurrences of these breaches, their impacts and further proposes
actions for consideration by the practitioners in the sector. | en_US |
