Jeff Aguilar, the chief information security officer for neighboring Los Angeles County, hopes to prevent a similar fate in any of the 38 county departments he’s charged with safeguarding. Aguilar, who has held high-level security posts in LA County since 2018 and became its CISO last year, is keenly aware of the increasing vulnerability of federal, state, and municipal agencies—cyberattacks targeting the public sector spiked 40% in the second quarter of 2023 over the same time the previous year. And although LA…
