The current cybersecurity landscape: Navigating threats and safeguarding local government operations Local governments in the United States faced a surge in cyber threats during the latter half of 2023, with over 160 cybersecurity incidents impacting the State, Local, and Education (SLED) sectors. Alarming statistics reveal that many of these incidents were ransomware attacks (45%) and data breaches (37%). As custodians of vast amounts of personal and private information, local governments are entrusted with safeguarding sensitive data against evolving cyber threats. The urgency of cybersecurity incident readiness becomes paramount in this landscape, where the consequences of breaches extend beyond operational disruptions. Protecting sensitive data is not just a matter of legal compliance; it is crucial for preserving privacy and upholding public trust. A breach can lead to severe legal consequences and reputational damage. Demonstrating a commitment to robust cybersecurity practices not only safeguards sensitive information but also enhances confidence in state and local government reassuring community stakeholders that their data is secure. Operational continuity is equally critical, as local governments play a vital role in delivering essential services to communities. Cybersecurity incidents have the potential to disrupt operations, causing service outages and delays. Therefore, the importance of effective incident readiness cannot be overstated, as it helps to maintain the uninterrupted delivery of crucial services and fortifies the resilience of local governments in the face of escalating cyber threats. |
