of state cybersecurity leaders on Monday, detailing what challenges they're facing and their cybersecurity strategies for the next year.Deloitte and NASCIO surveyed 53 states and territories' chief information security officers between May and June.Through the new grant program, established via the bipartisan infrastructure law, states will apply to the federal government for a sliver of the available funds. Local governments will then apply to states for a portion of those funds.

About half said they want to fund local government projects to conduct cyber risk assessments on their systems and implement security monitoring tools.
Only 35% said they'd fund local government projects focused on login security tools, such as multifactor authentication, despite the increasing number of security breaches that have happened because a hacker found an employee's stolen password on the dark web.Most local governments don't have the resources to properly secure their own systems or to even prioritize cybersecurity in their budgets.
