Thirtyseven4 Security: Ohio HB 96: New Cybersecurity Requirements for Public Entities
What is Ohio HB 96?
Effective September 30, 2025, Ohio Revised Code Section 9.64 requires each local government entity (LGE) to implement a basic cybersecurity program. Under the new law, every local government must implement a cybersecurity program that ensures the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of its information systems. This program should include:
Annual cybersecurity training for employees;
A cyber incident response plan;
Obtain approval from their legislative body for ransomware payments;
Practices to assess and remediate cyber risks; and
Reporting cyber incidents to the Ohio Cyber Integration Center and the Auditor of State.
Let Thirtyseven4 Security be an integral part of your cybersecurity program.
