Purpose
Section 282.318, F.S., authorizes the Agency for Enterprise Information Technology to establish rules for ensuring an appropriate level of security for all data and information technology resources for executive branch agencies. The purpose of proposed Rule Chapter 71A-1, F.A.C., is to define minimum management, operational and technical security controls to be used by state agencies to secure information and information technology resources. These rules will replace the policies and standards in Rule Chapter 60DD-2, F.A.C., which are being noticed for repeal. A Notice of Proposed Rule to repeal Rule Chapter 60DD-2, F.A.C., is contained in this edition of the Florida Administrative Weekly.
