CYBERSECURITY AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT Learn to secure your local
government's networks with this one-of-a-kind resource In
Cybersecurity and Local Government, a distinguished team of
researchers delivers an insightful exploration of cybersecurity at
the level of local government. The book makes a compelling argument
that every local government official, elected or otherwise, must be
reasonably knowledgeable about cybersecurity concepts and provide
appropriate support for it within their governments. It also lays
out a straightforward roadmap to achieving those objectives, from
an overview of cybersecurity definitions to descriptions of the
most common security challenges faced by local governments. The
accomplished authors specifically address the recent surge in
ransomware attacks and how they might affect local governments,
along with advice as to how to avoid and respond to these threats.
They also discuss the cybersecurity law, cybersecurity policies
that local government should adopt, the future of cybersecurity,
challenges posed by Internet of Things, and much more. Throughout,
the authors provide relevant field examples, case studies of actual
local governments, and examples of policies to guide readers in
their own application of the concepts discussed within.
Cybersecurity and Local Government also offers: A thorough
introduction to cybersecurity generally, including definitions of
key cybersecurity terms and a high-level overview of the subject
for non-technologists. A comprehensive exploration of critical
information for local elected and top appointed officials,
including the typical frequencies and types of cyberattacks.
Practical discussions of the current state of local government
cybersecurity, with a review of relevant literature from 2000 to
2021. In-depth examinations of operational cybersecurity policies,
procedures and practices, with recommended best practices. Perfect
for local elected and top appointed officials and staff as well as
local citizens, Cybersecurity and Local Government will also earn a
place in the libraries of those studying or working in local
government with an interest in cybersecurity.
