Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo made it clear on Thursday that state finances are secure amid the ongoing cyberattack fallout. He assured Nevadans, “To the best of our knowledge at this time, the data compromised did not include state financial information. No state bank account numbers, treasury funds or state budget payment systems’ data appeared to have been part of the breach.”
Demonstrating leadership, Lombardo said recovery efforts have pressed on 24/7—yes, including over the Labor Day weekend—well ahead of the weeks-to-months timeline typical for such crises. Meanwhile, critical DMV services are beginning to come back online: registrations and title transfers resumed already, and driver’s licenses will be offered in person starting Friday.
Looking ahead, Lombardo indicated he may pitch a cybersecurity operations center to the next Legislature to foster ongoing resilience. While budget details remain under wraps, insurance may offset the recovery costs, reinforcing the value of preparedness over spending inertia.
