Governor Steve Beshear has proclaimed October as Cyber Security Awareness month.
Governor Beshear is encouraging citizens to make sure they take necessary precautions while online.

The governor was quoted as saying that the Internet is useful, but that citizens must remain aware of the potential threats and that Kentucky officials must provide infrastructure security while maintaining access for state agencies, local partners and citizens.

Secretary of the Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet and interim Chief Information Officer Lori Flanery added that maintaining a system’s integrity is the number one challenge for organizations and that it was important to invest in security programs, training and awareness at all levels of an organization.
