The State of Ohio is stepping up to help local government guard against, and recover from cyber attacks.
The new Ohio Persistent Cyber Improvement (O-PCI) program will guide local agencies through three cybersecurity preparedness levels. Each level will consist of a five-step process for cybersecurity advancement: education, training, exercising, mentoring, and improvement.
We talked about how that will work, and why it is so so important, with the Ohio National Guard's Cyber Security Outreach Coordinator, Mark Bell, and the City of Akron's Chief Technology Manager, Darren Rozenek.
