DIR hopes to partner with additional public universities throughout the state to serve local entities and protect the state from cybersecurity threats. Partnering with universities will give students hands-on experience in cybersecurity while making Texas more secure.
Eligible customers for RSOC include counties, local governments, school districts, water districts, hospital districts, and regional state agency offices.
