The auditor’s recommendations expressed as much.
But in reality, as technology advances, new threats will emerge over the horizon that require frameworks and protocols we can’t anticipate. That’s where regular statewide audits play a vital role. In this sense, Utah actually leads the country in being proactive about cyber resilience. The state may have raised some concerning red flags, but because it has taken the step to audit and identify problems, it’s now perfectly positioned to solve them. That’s more than many other states have done. If Utah implements some of the auditor’s recommendations, it could wind up leading the country in cyber resilience.
