“Cybersecurity is a top priority for the department,” writes Subbarao Mupparaju, chief deputy director of the Financial Information System for California. “In 2023, we advanced our efforts to technically optimize the system and improve our cybersecurity maturity using a combination of on-premise and cloud-hosted technologies.”
“We are at an exciting juncture as a department, and working on these and other initiatives for a system of this scale is a unique challenge. … Above all, I am happy to come home to this department,” writes Subbarao Mupparaju.
"Because our system is modern, fast and secure, we were able to transition to telework seamlessly while still meeting the essential functions we provide to our customers."
