QazTech (digital state platform)

2024: Creation of a unified state platform QazTech

On June 27, 2024, the Senate of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan approved a law on state control and statistics, improving the system of population protection and data management. The document, among other things, provides for the creation of a single digital state platform QazTech.

It is planned to move to a platform model of digitalization. At the same time, functions in the fields of informatization, information security, personal data protection and communication will be transferred to the local executive bodies of the regions, cities of republican significance and the capital. They also have to be responsible for exercising state control in the field of electronic digital signature. It is assumed that this will allow building a multi-level system for protecting the rights of citizens, timely identify and suppress violations of laws in the field of personal data and cybersecurity, and ensure the right of consumers to the proper quality of communication services.

The creation of a single QazTech platform, in turn, will help reduce the timing of the implementation of digital initiatives of government agencies by reusing basic services and software components. To automate the activities of state bodies and provide public services, a simplified procedure for the development and implementation of software products is being introduced. The initiative will speed up the launch of new services and digital services for citizens and businesses.

The law also provides for the expansion of the functions of local executive bodies to create conditions for the development and attraction of investments in the IT industry. This should create additional incentives for the development of digitalization in the regions. In addition, there are norms for regulating the activities of data centers and the use of cloud computing. It is expected that when implementing the proposed measures, Kazakhstan will transform into a regional hub for the provision of cloud services.[1]
