Explanation
(This amendment includes $121,968 the second year from the general fund for a requested information security officer position. This dedicated position will develop, manage and maintain DOE’s information technology security program in accordance with the Commonwealth’s information technology security policies and standards. DOE currently does not have sufficient staff resources to adequately cover this function, which requires staff with the requisite training, skills, and credentials. This is an area of vulnerability for the agency on annual state audits.)
