NASCIO Executive Director Doug Robinson interviews Michigan CIO Laura Clark, West Virginia CIO Josh Spence, Indiana CIO Tracy Barnes, Ohio CIO Katrina Flory, Detroit CIO Art Thompson and Wayne County, Mich., CIO Hector Roman at the Michigan Cyber Summit in Novi, Mich. (State of Michigan)
A new piece of legislation gives state IT chief Joshua Spence a CIO title and greater authority to manage information technology across state agencies.
Joshua Spence, previously the chief information security officer, wants the state to make cybersecurity a bigger consideration before making big IT decisions.
Two state chief information security officers were recognized for their work on cybersecurity and Ohio’s chief information officer Stu Davis received the meritorious service award.
