2021 Security Awareness Training
The 2021 Security Awareness Training will be available soon for employees. All executive branch state employees must complete the Security Awareness training annually. One of the most important elements of our defense and protection of the state’s information assets is user awareness and training. As an authorized user of the state’s information resources, you have an obligation to help protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the state’s data. Part of that obligation is completing the required annual security awareness training. When the training is available, you will be able to access it here. If you need assistance, please go to dts.utah.gov and click the ‘Get Help’ icon for support.

Governor Cox FY2022 Budget Recommendations
Governor Cox recently released the FY2022 budget recommendations. See it here. A few things that impact DTS:
2021 Legislative Session
The 2021 Legislative Session started on Tuesday, January 19. DTS is watching a few bills closely. You can see all the bills here.
DTS will be presenting to the Infrastructure and General Government Appropriations Subcommittee during the first two weeks of the session. We will have the opportunity to present our proposed rates and budget.
- HB0006 IGG Base Budget
- HB0008 State Agency and Higher Education Compensation Appropriations
- SB0008 State Agency Fees and ISF Rate Authorization and Appropriations
In addition, Representative Brooks currently has a bill file opened to rename the Automated Geographic Reference Center. The new name, Utah Geospatial Resource Center, brings the name up to date with modern terms and ideas.
– More people are understanding the importance of data, and can appreciate Geospatial data as location based data.– The division is a Resource center that provides raw data, web services, contract work, and also advises others on implementing GIS.– The new name is much more descriptive of what the division does, and is more recognizable by people not familiar with GIS to recognize the division offers another type of data (geospatial).
New ‘Order It’ Feature on DTS Site
We have a new page on the DTS site that will help with ordering of IT products. Agencies can now quickly and easily order IT products. You can see it here.
Updated Enterprise User Authentication Standards Policy
DTS has recently updated the Enterprise User Authentication Standards policy to include more information about multi factor authentication. See it here.
