ITAudit&InfrastructureinGigiri
Nairobi metro · Kenya
Gigiri houses the UN Nairobi complex, dozens of embassies, multilateral organisations, international NGOs, and the corporate offices that support them along Limuru Road, Manyani Road, and UN Avenue. The workload profile here is unusual — high-trust environments where cybersecurity, access control, perimeter security, and data-sovereignty handling are first-class concerns, but where procurement processes are slower, decisions are committee-driven, and compliance paperwork dominates. 912 engages Gigiri organisations primarily on FortiGate cybersecurity, GravityZone endpoint protection across distributed staff, biometric + visitor management access control with structured audit trails (Visitor Pass template — VMS configuration + SMS notification flows + 12-month auto-renewing terms), and managed IT retainers sized to the Audit Services Premium tier (KES 15,000 + VAT/month — 24/7 Auto Pilot monitoring, vulnerability remediation, dedicated security liaison, guaranteed incident response SLA). From Westlands we serve Gigiri in 18-20 minutes outside rush hour, with extended SLA documentation that maps to international-organisation procurement standards.

Infrastructure context
Gigiri has reliable fibre coverage and the most generator-redundant power infrastructure of any Nairobi district. Cybersecurity workloads dominate — FortiGate deployments sized for 100+ users, GravityZone endpoint protection with risk analytics per endpoint, behavioral threat detection, ransomware rollback. Physical-security deployments emphasize structured audit trails, badge-based access, and visitor-pass workflows that integrate with international-organisation security policies.
Compliance considerations
- •UN and embassy security frameworks — vary by organisation but typically require documented incident-response procedures, encrypted-at-rest data handling, and structured access-control audit trails.
- •ODPC Data Protection Act 2019 — Kenya-resident staff data triggers DPA obligations even for international organisations.
- •Sector-specific donor compliance (USAID, EU, FCDO, etc.) — NGOs receiving institutional funding inherit donor-organisation IT compliance requirements.

What the numbers say about leaving this alone
An audit is cheap. Finding out what an audit would have told you, during an incident or an inspection, is not.
The ODPC draft Strategic Plan reports 82 audits or inspections, 62 reported data breaches, and 10 penalty notices.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about IT Audit & Infrastructure in Gigiri.
What does a 912 IT audit cover?
A 912 IT audit is a 5-day stack review covering five domains: security posture (firewall, identity, endpoint, email), infrastructure (cloud, server, network, backup), licensing and vendor contracts, process and documentation maturity, and ODPC DPA 2019 compliance gaps. Output: a written report with prioritised remediation roadmap and an itemised cost-savings estimate.
How much does an IT audit cost?
Free for prospective clients — we offer a free 5-day IT audit as the entry point to our One Contract model. For existing audit-only engagements (no follow-on managed services), we charge KES 350,000 to KES 1.2M depending on scope. Most audits identify 30–40% duplicate spend or compliance gaps that pay for themselves within 90 days.
How long does an audit take?
Standard engagement: 5 working days of fieldwork plus 3 days of report writing. The fieldwork is non-disruptive — interviews, configuration reviews, and read-only tool deployments. We never make changes during an audit.
What deliverables do we get?
A written executive summary, a detailed findings register (typically 30–80 items prioritised by risk), a 90-day remediation roadmap, an itemised cost-savings projection, and an ODPC DPA compliance gap analysis. All deliverables are presented in a debrief workshop with your leadership team.
Does the audit cover physical security?
Yes — 912's scope is unique in Kenya because we cover physical and digital security under one engagement. CCTV blind spots, electric fence calibration, access control credential hygiene, and server-room environmental controls are all part of the audit.
Who conducts the audit?
A team of 3 senior engineers — one security lead (CISSP or equivalent), one infrastructure lead, and one applications/data lead. All audits are signed off by 912's Head of Engineering. References available on request.
