Everyone knows today that protecting your information is important against identity theft and other nasty schemes going on in the world.

Not long ago a news report came out that, unknown to most people, digital photo copy machines have hard drives that keep images of documents scanned by the copier. This could easily be a breach in security should the copy machine hard drive fall into the wrong hands.

DAS Procurement has evaluated this risk and has made tremendous advancements with their contractors to tighten security with digital photocopiers. With the current digital copiers, our contracted vendors will install encryption software, at no charge to the state, to prevent information from being easily accessible on the machine’s hard drive.

In the future, when a machine has to be removed, the vendor will remove the hard drive and hand it over to an authorized person within your agency for proper dispos-al. Agencies must designate their own Duly Authorized Agent.

When you think of the wide variety of services the state provides with HIPPA re-quirements, human resources information, and procurement contracts, you can see why keeping your information secure would be important. If you have any questions pertaining to the contract (04PSX0044) please contact Rob Zalucki at 860-713-5139.

DAS has just awarded a contract (10PSX0001)that can provide credit protection and identity theft services. These services are required whenever there is a breach or potential breach of personal information.
