WCICC director asks board to reclassify $62,500 and proposes Varonis data‑governance purchase
Summary
John Malloy, WCICC director, asked supervisors to move $62,500 into improvement requests and proposed buying a Varonis data‑governance package to strengthen data protections and prepare for AI‑related risks; board received the operating budget.
WCICC director John Malloy told supervisors the IT operating budget included a line‑item misallocation and asked that $62,500 be moved into the improvement requests column so the package is tracked correctly. He also described an improvement request for a Varonis data‑governance tool intended to reduce cyber risk and to prepare county systems for AI‑related data controls.
"It's for something called Varonis and it's a data governance package," Malloy said, describing features that address data exfiltration, labeling and improved hygiene. He noted the county's administrative cost split with the city (60% city / 40% county) and said the Varonis request is also being discussed with city partners; Malloy asked the board to receive the packet so WCICC and the city can continue coordination.
