摘要
Health crises, climate change, and technological hazards pose serious managerial and equity challenges for local governments. To effectively navigate the uncertainties and complexity, municipalities are increasingly collaborating with one another and sharing data and information to improve decision-making. While data sharing fosters effectiveness in responding to threats, it also entails risks. One major concern is that local government managers often lack the knowledge and technical skills required for safe and effective data sharing, exposing municipalities to cyberthreats. Drawing on data sharing and cybersecurity scholarship, we investigate whether increased data sharing among local governments makes cities more or less vulnerable to cyberincidents. We test our hypotheses using data from two national surveys of U.S. local government managers conducted in 2016 and 2018. Our findings contribute to the literature on technology and risk in government by informing both public managers and researchers about the potential threats associated with data sharing. Le citta sono sempre piu frequentemente esposte a minacce quali crisi sanitarie, cambiamenti climatici, e rischi tecnologici. Per affrontare efficacemente le incertezze e le complessita associate a tali rischi, i governi locali stanno sempre piu collaborando tra loro, condividendo dati e informazioni utili per informare e migliorare i processi decisionali. Sebbene questa crescente condivisione di dati favorisca una efficace gestione delle minacce, essa puo comportare anche rischi. Una delle principali preoccupazioni e che i dirigenti locali spesso manchino delle conoscenze e delle competenze tecniche necessarie per una condivisione sicura ed efficace dei dati, rendendo le citta vulnerabili a minacce informatiche. Basandosi sulla letteratura relativa alla condivisione dei dati e alla sicurezza informatica, questo studio esamina se un aumento della condivisione dei dati renda le citta piu o meno vulnerabili agli incidenti informatici. Sviluppiamo e testiamo le nostre ipotesi utilizzando dati provenienti da due questionari somministrati a dirigenti dei governi locali degli Stati Uniti nel 2016 e nel 2018. I nostri risultati contribuiscono alla letteratura sulla tecnologia e il rischio nel settore pubblico, fornendo informazioni sia ai dirigenti pubblici che ai ricercatori sui potenziali rischi associati alla condivisione dei dati.
