New Statutory Requirements in Indiana for Reporting Cybersecurity Incidents
Highlights
Under a newly enacted state law, Indiana political subdivisions are required to report cybersecurity incidents to the Indiana Office of Technology
Each political subdivision must designate a primary reporting contact prior to Sept. 1, 2021 (and each year following before Sept. 1)
