Bridging Legal Accountability, Incident Response, and Digital Resilience in Electronic Banking Abstract While litigation over Barclays Bank of Kenya Limited v. Hellen Seruya Wasilwa (2021) centered on defamation and breach of contract, the underlying incident reveals critical gaps in cybersecurity governance, operational resilience, and digital forensics investigation in electronic banking systems.

The case illustrates a fundamental failure in incident response, system diagnosis, and customer communication; failures that modern cybersecurity frameworks and forensic investigation protocols would address. By examining the case through the lens...
