We live in a digital age where information flows easily. While this is excellent most of the time, it has posed challenges in certain areas. Examination cheating especially at the KCSE level is one such area. This serious vice undermines our education system and must be dealt with firmly.

Unfortunately, all examinations will inevitably face attempts to compromise the testing process by a few unscrupulous individuals. Today, these efforts are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Robust test security measures are becoming ever more essential.
