Iowa by the Numbers
Iowa has 1,492 government organizations, but only 549 (37%) have trackable websites. That means 943 government bodies have no online presence we can monitor for security.
Iowa earned an overall grade of D+ -- meaning most government websites and email systems lack basic security protections. Taxpayers in Iowa are at elevated risk for government data breaches, phishing attacks, and ransomware incidents.
