Attorney general urges cybersecurity safety

INDIANA — Curtis Hill, Indiana attorney general and co-chair of the Indiana Executive Cybersecurity Council’s Legal and Insurance Working Group, warns Hoosiers and especially business owners to take proactive measures to protect online security.

Cyberattacks, Hill said in a news release, are near an all-time high.

Hill urged Hoosier businesses to complete a cyber risk planning survey. While many businesses will receive mailings, anyone may find the survey online. The survey should take no more than 25 minutes and will help the Indiana Executive Cybersecurity Council better understand the cybersecurity threats Indiana is facing.

The Indiana Executive Cybersecurity Council is working in collaboration with researchers at Indiana University and the University of Arizona to explore how Indiana organizations perceive and manage cyber risks. To participate in the online survey, go to go.iu.edu/cybersurvey.
