Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 4 mixed.
Agencies and locals pay for IT
The Department sets charges for IT services and bills State client agencies from their own funds. It must consult agencies, keep charges clear, and use other funding when allowed. Agencies must keep seeking federal and other funds and make them available for IT when program rules allow. The Department may also sell IT services to other State offices, local governments, and public or not‑for‑profit schools, at prices that cover its costs.
One department runs state technology
The law moves State IT staff, records, property, contracts, and unspent IT funds to the Department of Innovation and Technology beginning March 25, 2016. Transferred employees keep their job status, union rights, benefits, and pensions. The Secretary, appointed by the Governor with Senate approval, is the State’s Chief Information Officer and oversees State data. The Department can buy, run, and maintain IT for client agencies, require IT usage and cost reports, and examine some publicly funded organizations’ IT accounts (not constitutional, legislative, or judicial offices unless they ask). It builds and runs centralized systems, sets statewide data-protection and interoperability standards, makes rules, and files an IT master plan update to the Governor by January 30 each year. The law also repeals Section 1-75 of the DoIT Act.
Statewide cybersecurity office and local contacts
The law creates an Office of the Statewide Chief Information Security Officer. The Secretary appoints the CISO and provides staff; a local-government cybersecurity liaison program can be set up if funded. The CISO sets statewide security policy, finds and fixes risks, reviews agency security budgets, and trains staff. The CISO can order temporary shutdowns of systems to stop a breach. Every county and each city or town with 35,000 or more people must name a cybersecurity contact and give their info to the Statewide CISO.
Rules for electronic records and signatures
Each Illinois agency decides whether to use electronic records and e‑signatures. The Department and the Secretary of State must adopt rules within six months after the law’s effective date on formats, signature types, security, and audit trails. The Secretary of State’s rules apply only to that office. The Department’s rules apply only to State agencies it serves under the Governor.
