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.
