Information Security and Privacy

Admin's Division of Information Security (DIS) is responsible for a variety of statewide policies, standards, programs and services related to cybersecurity and information systems, including the statewide coordination of critical infrastructure information.

The Enterprise Privacy Office (EPO), which is part of the Division of Information Security, is responsible for advising state agencies on managing personal information, as well as establishing, assessing and enhancing privacy protection policy, training and compliance measures.

Technology Services

Admin's Office of Technology and Information Services (OTIS) oversees the state’s federated model for implementing, enhancing and protecting information technology (IT) resources and the utilization of IT shared services across agencies. This centralized focus ensures governance and oversight while requiring agencies to implement standardized technologies and information security policies and guidelines.

GSA Vehicles

Note: This program is only available to approved eligible organizations, and these vehicles are not for sale to the public.

Public agencies may request and purchase low-mileage vehicles that were previously owned by the federal government. The Surplus Property Office acquires these vehicles, typically three to five years old, from the General Services Administration (GSA). These vehicles go through the standard state surplus property cycle procedures.

State Surplus Property Services

The State Surplus Property Program promotes and facilitates the sustainable reuse of personal surplus property to state and local governments, qualifying non-profit entities and the public. The Surplus Property Office operates a retail store at its warehouse location in West Columbia and conducts online auctions to make personal property that has no further governmental need available to the public. The "cycle" is the week of the fiscal year in which the item will normally become available for public sale.
