The challenge is not awareness. It is operational readiness.
Every agency knows the threats. Few can demonstrate — with evidence, across departments, on demand — that they are prepared. Codec8 closes the gap between knowing and proving.
Operational scenarios
What happens when
readiness is tested.
The NCSA requests your audit evidence.
Situation
Legal Notice No. 89 is gazetted. Your agency is classified as critical information infrastructure. The audit notice arrives. You have 30 days.
Platform response
Your compliance dashboard already maps every NCSA Order 2026 §6 function to your agency posture. Export department-level evidence packs in the format auditors expect — not a scramble across five disconnected systems.
Outcome
Audit response time: hours, not weeks.
A .go.ke domain is compromised.
Situation
DNS records are altered. SSL certificates expire unnoticed. A government website is defaced. The media reports it before your ICT team knows.
Platform response
The platform detected the DNS change, the SSL anomaly, and the content integrity violation. Your ICT team had the alert, the pre-configured KE-CIRT/CC notification template, and the evidence preservation checklist before the call came.
Outcome
From detection to coordinated response. Not detection to panic.
Staff credentials are phished via a fake IFMIS portal.
Situation
An officer receives what looks like a routine IFMIS session timeout. The login page is pixel-perfect. The URL is one character off.
Platform response
Your staff completed government-context phishing simulations last month — the same IFMIS login, the same portal pattern. The credential was flagged, not entered. The reporting rate across departments: 73%.
Outcome
Prevention through recognition. Not prevention through policy documents.
The platform
Five capabilities.
One operating picture.
Compliance posture
Continuous mapping against NCSA Order 2026, DPA 2019, KE-CIRT/CC, and the Computer Misuse Act. When regulations change, your posture view updates.
Staff readiness
Training and phishing simulations built for government workflows — IFMIS, e-GP, KRA, internal memo patterns. Department-level completion tracking.
Infrastructure monitoring
Automated monitoring of .go.ke domains, DNS, SSL certificates, and email authentication. Actionable alerts with remediation steps.
Policy framework
Structured templates aligned to NCSA technical guidelines. Track adoption per department. Export evidence for audit submission.
Incident preparedness
Response playbooks for ransomware, data exposure, defacement, and credential compromise. Pre-configured KE-CIRT/CC notification templates.
Regulatory alignment
Four frameworks. One posture view.

Deployment
From baseline assessment to continuous audit readiness.
Baseline assessment
Posture assessment across departments — ICT policies, staff awareness, digital asset exposure, regulatory gaps. Readiness score and prioritised action plan delivered.
Platform deployment
Department structures configured. Domain assets imported. ICT officers onboarded. Your team is operational within two weeks.
Continuous monitoring
Compliance posture, digital assets, and staff training tracked continuously. Monthly posture reports surface what improved, regressed, or needs attention.
Audit-ready evidence
Export compliance reports per department or agency-wide — mapped to the specific regulatory sections the NCSA or Auditor-General assesses.
Built for how government operates.
Nairobi-based
