Overview

Information is more accessible with the advancement of technology.  Today, data resides on different application platforms, websites, and cloud servers, making the protection of that information more critical to maintain confidentiality and privacy.  Information is created with every keystroke, click, swipe, voice, and video recording.  It is critical to maintain confidentiality and privacy to protect from data breach, stolen identities, loss of privacy and property. For state agencies, data breaches can be costly, time-consuming and result in exposure of confidential information. For TxDOT, data breaches can result in loss of confidential or valuable information.
