The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that $374.9 million in grant funding is available for the fiscal year (FY) 2023 State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program (SLCGP).

Local governments on the receiving end of Federal state and local cybersecurity grants are getting a case of heartburn from the process, as they may end up receiving services from state governments, but not much cash.

Outgoing Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker signed an executive order establishing the Massachusetts Cyber Incident Response Team (MA-CIRT).

In a move to shore up the state’s information security and privacy, New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has established a Cybersecurity Planning Committee to guide the state’s cybersecurity initiatives.
