| Sheila Weimer |
|
| | | | | | | | Additional Background/Other Considerations:
|
- Only county-owned mobile devices will be allowed access to the county’s non-public network
- ALL text messages will be captured and stored, making them FOIAble and subject to legal discovery
- Approved apps loaded on county-owned devices will be pushed out through the County’s App Store
- Enforcement of strong passwords/security
|
|
| | | | | | | | Consequence of Denial/Inaction:
| The consequence of denial/inaction is that county would remain out of compliance to FOIA and records retention rules in regards to capturing text messages and other media and the continued use of personal devices on the county network making users responsible for maintaining records on their own devices. |
