I found the article titled “Indiana Cybersecurity Hub Taking Cyber in Indiana to the Next Level” which provides information about the ways in which compliance is expected and maintained in Indiana with regard to cybersecurity. The article makes the readers understand that cybersecurity measures have to be taken regularly so that required changes can be done instantaneously. There can be discussions conducted between common citizens and government officials of the department of cybersecurity via the Indiana Cybersecurity Hub. There can be reporting of cyber crimes to the administrators of the virtual hub. There is the presence of an executive council which takes major decisions about cybersecurity measures and actions.
