Local Government
Protecting Public
Local governments are at the forefront of delivering essential services to their communities, making them critical targets for cyberattacks.
Whether managing utility systems, public safety operations, or citizen data, the stakes have never been higher.
The unique Challenges
Local Governments
Face
Hackers frequently exploit the vulnerabilities of legacy systems and constrained IT budgets in local governments.
Attacks can disrupt critical public services, from emergency response systems to water and transportation networks, endangering lives and eroding community trust. Proactive cybersecurity measures are crucial to avoid these consequences.
Why Cybersecurity is Critical for Local Governments
Service Continuity: Interruptions caused by cyber incidents can disable vital public services like 911 systems, water supplies, and transportation.
Public Trust: Breaches of citizen data can erode trust and lead to legal and reputational challenges.
Evolving Threats: Local governments are frequent targets for ransomware and phishing attacks due to their perceived lack of sophisticated defenses.
Compliance Pressures: Adhering to cybersecurity regulations and frameworks like NIST and CISA guidelines is essential.
