How to Drive a 'Whole-of-State' Cyber Strategy

The complexity and volume of cyberattacks is on the rise

Client: Lumen

Format: White Paper

The Challenge: : Surging digital interconnectedness has expanded cyber vulnerabilities across state and local governments. Meanwhile, widespread labor shortages and vast resource disparities between affluent and smaller municipalities leave citizen data dangerously exposed.

The Solution: Adopting a "whole-of-state" strategy that pools resources, creates joint cyber task forces, and leverages modern tools like Lumen's adaptive networks. By aligning resources according to municipal needs and securing federal grants, states can proactively monitor threats and defend systems collaboratively.
