Kentucky by the Numbers
Kentucky has 1,121 government organizations, but only 418 (37%) have trackable websites. That means 703 government bodies have no online presence we can monitor for security.
Kentucky earned an overall grade of D+ -- meaning most government websites and email systems lack basic security protections. Taxpayers in Kentucky are at elevated risk for government data breaches, phishing attacks, and ransomware incidents.
