چکیده

The development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems towards materialization into e-Government applications is expected to tremendously change the ways governments deliver their core business services to citizens and how citizens can interact with their governments. There are also high expectations that these changes will play major roles in the socio-economic developments. For these reasons there are several so called maturity models being developed to guide and benchmark e-government developments in developing countries. These models describe various stages, three to six, referring to technological complexity. However, we do not see explicitly that security is addressed as a specific issue at the various stages, nor do we see how cultural, legal, economical and managerial security related issues are incorporated. Being part of the ongoing research in the area, the paper attempts to critically investigate, evaluate and analyze eleven existing e-government maturity models, and discuss the findings in the light of research findings from four government institutions located in the Sub-Saharan Africa.
