- This binds you only if you are an opérateur des réseaux (network operator) or fournisseur des services under Burundian law, defined at Art. 2(11) as any natural or legal person providing one or more services to users of a telecommunication system.
- Guarantee the security of the services you offer, and put in place the technical processes and means needed to fight cyber fraud.
- Maintain an operational management center for your critical infrastructure on Burundian national territory.
- Exercise the diligence and competence necessary to prevent the disclosure of computer data you hold on behalf of a third party, or face a fine of 10,000,000 to 30,000,000 Burundian francs (BIF) under Article 14.
- Article 4 also states three further common obligations this row does not flag as a security duty: retain connection and traffic data for at least ten years, install mechanisms to monitor your own network's data traffic, and, if you operate a cybercafé, install a video-surveillance system; these read as data-retention, surveillance-capability, and physical-security mandates rather than a duty over your systems' or services' own security posture.
