Prime Minister Abiy in a raft of recent appointments handed the portfolio to Shumete Gizaw who is his current chief of staff. Gizaw is Abiy’s third chief of staff since he took office in April 2018.

The new INSA boss is to be deputed by Kefyalem Tefera. It remains to be seen who Abiy picks as his next chief of staff. His first, Fitsum Arega, is currently Ethiopia’s ambassador to the United States whiles the second, Shimelis Abdissa, is president of the Oromia regional state.
it was established for the first time in 2006 by Council of Ministers Regulation No.130/2006 with an objective to defend the country’s information and information infrastructure from attack, and protecting the national interest.
However, as it was necessary to amend the agency’s power and functions to prevent cybercrimes that becomes gradually complex and to protect our national interest, its establishment regulation was amended by Council of Ministers Regulation No.250/2011 and later re-amended by Proclamation No.808/2013.
