Arizona selected for policy academy on cybersecurity ahead of elections

The National Governors Association awarded Arizona the opportunity to participate in a cybersecurity policy academy ahead of the 2020 election. Arizona is one of six states that will receive training from the association’s staff to improve the communication between election officials and cyber-related risks prior to the election, according to a release. “Through this program, we can enhance the positive work happening across our state to make sure Arizona remains at the cutting edge of cyber defense and is as prepared as possible to protect against cyber threats ahead of the coming election,” Governor Doug Ducey said in the release.
