Awareness of cyber security has been, and will continue to be, to leverage
existing awareness and outreach efforts and to initiate and enhance public.
Promoting a secure cyberspace is the responsibility of every citizen, all
levels of government, academia, and industries, regardless of size or
sector. The list of key stakeholders involved in the solution is limitless,

responsibility in enhancing cyber security awareness in state and local
government agencies throughout each state.
