	Goal 3 - Protect the privacy and confidentiality of citizen information
	Our citizens and businesses have a high expectation that the State will appropriately secure its digital government services and ensure the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of their information. In order to provide this level of assurance, a proactive program to secure the State's IT resources must be developed. Cyber attacks against the IT infrastructure occur regularly and can have serious consequences if not countered. Unexpected catastrophes such as natural or man-made disasters can also cause severe disruption if the State is not prepared. Countering such threats requires the development and implementation of a common and coordinated security/recovery strategy.
