2. Authorize the County Administrative Officer to sign the MOU for the period of 48 months from the date of execution.

Body
STRATEGIC PLAN:
This action supports the following areas of your Board's Strategic Plan.

Area of Focus: Core Services/Other
Strategic Plan Category: 9999 - Core Services/Other

DISCUSSION:
Several county departments have a need to access DMV information for various operational purposes, such as obtaining driving records. However, to access this information, the network being used must have security measures in place, including IT being required to implement and maintain the approved configuration security of its network connectivity for transmission of DMV data.

IT gives technical support to county departments that access the DMV system. IT must also establish security procedures to protect the dissemination of confidentiality of certain DMV information, ensure employees who have access to DMV information complete a security statement, and must report unauthorized access. DMV will not pay for costs and maintenance of communication lines used to access its information.

The attached MOU before your Board today addresses updated requirements for DMV access that were not in place in the previous MOU executed on April 15, 2022.
