SDCERS’ IT Department Receives 2024 MISAC Quality IT Practices Award

SDCERS is proud to announce it has received the Municipal Information System Association of California (MISAC) Quality Information Technology Practices Award for the seventh year in a row. MISAC is a collaborative organization of California local government IT professionals with the goal of promoting leadership, information sharing, and access to resources to enhance local government services and effectiveness. Membership includes cities, towns, public safety, special districts, and other local governmental agencies/districts. 

The award qualifications follow the NIST SP800-53P standards.  NIST is the National Institute of Standards and Technology that defines a framework to reduce cybersecurity risks within an organization.  This framework is adopted by most federal and government agencies.  To qualify for the award, agencies respond using the control catalog covering NIST standards of low, moderate and high.  Those agencies who meet a high percentage of the controls are recognized with the MISAC Quality in IT Practices award. 

Receiving MISAC Quality IT Practices Award is an honor and tribute to the dedication and performance of SDCERS’ IT staff and contractors.
