Education CS Ezekiel Machogu is working with Interior CS Kithure Kindiki and ICT boss Eliud Owalo to ensure a smooth flow of national exams.
Kindiki has been moving around bandit-prone areas to ensure tight security ahead of the exams.
Speaking in Arbajahan Primary School, Wajir, Kindiki said the administrators will be assigned police officers to capacitate them to fight crime and enforce law and order effectively.
"I have directed the security teams in the counties affected by cattle rustling to vet our chiefs and assistant chiefs so that we can arm them to protect the lives and property of wananchi (Kenyans)," Kindiki said.
Tight measures have been put across to deal with Kenyans selling fake papers online.
Kenya national examination council warned Kenyans against falling prey to fraudsters, who are out to mislead them into buying exam leakages.
The agency's CEO David Njengere said they were alert and would not allow thugs to mislead parents and distract candidates who are revising for the exams.
