Background:
Head of NIC is the Director General of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Muhammad Aimal Marjan.

The NIC is set up at the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in Kabul, and will preserve important secret governmental documents, statistics and other information of national importance. Everyone can register with NIC their personal documents with their own email addresses and passwords. Individuals will have to pay the centre. The information would be fully secure and none else could reach the personal details of others and no virus could attack it. 20 employees would work at the centre, where websites of 80 government entities would come online over the next five months.

Evaluation:
NIC is good for government entities, but not for private enterprises. Private enterprises will be subjected to money extortion, if they really store confident business data in NIC databanks.
