Abstract

Cybersecurity is not just an IT department problem; it is an enterprise-wide, whole-of-government issue that impacts finance, legal compliance, emergency services, and public trust.The LGOGC cuts through technical jargon to focus on what matters most to community leaders: governance, accountability, and resilience. This guide was truly built by and for local government professionals, ensuring every concept is practical and immediately relevant to your fiduciary duty to protect the systems that serve your communities.
