As state and local IT leaders told Industry Insider in its regular One-on-One interview series, they’re continuing to move to the cloud and harden surfaces against bad actors — while taking important steps in AI and in closing the digital divide.
Several state entities are already underway on technology modernizations and cybersecurity hardening and may seek additional funding during the 2024-2025 fiscal year budget cycle, which begins next month.
As part of Industry Insider — California’s ongoing efforts to educate readers on state agencies, their IT plans and initiatives, here’s the latest in our periodic series of interviews with departmental IT leaders.
The California Victim Compensation Board is seeking about $1.6 million and eight staff positions over the next two fiscal years to help in meeting capabilities set out in Cal-Secure, the state’s multiyear cybersecurity road map.
The goal of any proposed solution is to provide prospective applicants and staff an easier and more user-friendly way of obtaining the information they may need.
Agencies with security positions in recruitment include the California Department of General Services, the California Energy Commission and the California Victim Compensation Board.
The new chief information officer, who will also serve as the board’s deputy executive director, has worked for several large state agencies, and he began his career in the private sector.
A longtime executive and former chief information officer at another state department has joined the entity as its new CIO. His hiring caps a period of change for the board, the new CIO said.
