California by the Numbers

California has 3,518 government organizations, but only 1,825 (52%) have trackable websites. That means 1,693 government bodies have no online presence we can monitor for security.

California earned an overall grade of D+ -- meaning most government websites and email systems lack basic security protections. Taxpayers in California are at elevated risk for government data breaches, phishing attacks, and ransomware incidents.
