SB 179 requires all Oklahoma state agencies to manage their own information technology and cybersecurity services starting from its effective date. It directs the transfer of all prior IT and cybersecurity data from the dissolved Information Services Division to each agency and mandates annual electronic reports to the Governor and Chief Information Officer detailing IT status, security events, and related information. The bill also dissolves the existing Information Services Division within the Office of Management and Enterprise Services and updates related statutes to align with these changes. This directly affects state agencies, shifting IT management responsibilities from a centralized division to individual departments.
