CHP’s primary mission is the management and regulation of traffic to achieve safe, lawful and efficient use of the highway transportation system. As a major statewide law enforcement agency, it also assists in emergencies exceeding local capabilities and provides disaster and life-saving assistance. It’s one of the four “core” state agencies that work on cybersecurity.
“Industry Insider — California is excited that Chief Baxter has agreed to provide this briefing to our members,” said Mike Driessen, vice president of subscription services for e.Republic, parent of Industry Insider. “Whenever there is a new CIO for a large state department like CHP, it’s important to hear directly from them on their priorities and overall direction. CHP, with its 11,000-member workforce spread throughout the state, has diverse technology challenges and needs to fulfill their mission. I encourage our members who are interested in doing business with CHP to attend.”
The event will run from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. June 8 at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento. Registration check-in begins at 2:30 p.m. More information and registration are available online. This event is open only to Industry Insider members. The capacity of this briefing is extremely limited, and each member company will be restricted to a maximum of two seats.
