?? October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and it's a vital time to recognize the crucial role govtech plays in safeguarding public sector data. Did you know that: 1?? Over 60% of local governments faced cyber attacks last year, underscoring the need for robust cybersecurity measures. 2?? Effective cybersecurity strategies not only protect sensitive information but also save taxpayer money by preventing costly data breaches. 3?? Collaboration between technology providers and government entities enhances resilience against evolving cyber threats. Visit our Resource Library to explore more about cybersecurity in the public sector. Together, we can strengthen our defenses and ensure a safer digital environment! ??
