LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 85TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 10, 2017 TO: Honorable Gary Elkins, Chair, House Committee on Government Transparency & Operation FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2192 by Blanco (Relating to comprehensive information security assessments on state agency information resources and network systems and digital data storage and security.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Government Code to require that state agencies conduct comprehensive information security assessments. Agencies would report the results of the study at least once every five years to DIR, the governor, the lieutenant governor, and the speaker of the house of representatives. According to DIR, the Texas Department of Agriculture, Texas Board of Nursing, Department of Motor Vehicles and Texas A&M, no significant fiscal impact is anticipated as a result of the bill, and it is assumed that requirements could be absorbed within existing resources. This analysis assumes DIR would not require agencies to contract with a third party vendor to perform these assessments and that DIR would also remain available to conduct a certain amount of security assessments each year to assist agencies with inadequate internal resources for this purpose. However, if DIR were not available to assist agencies and/or third party vendors were needed, the cost to conduct the assessments required by the bill could be significant for some agencies. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
