This proposed legislation is designed to meet the cybersecurity needs of Idaho and its political subdivisions. For ease of use, the proposal creates a new exception in the Public Records Act to exempt material related to the nature, location, or function of cybersecurity devices, systems, or programs utilized by a governmental entity. Additionally, the proposal will allow a governmental deliberative body such as a city council or board of county commissioners to enter executive session as allowed by the Idaho Open Meetings Law to discuss the nature, location, or function of cybersecurity devices, systems, or programs.
