SUBJECT: APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE the Clerk-Recorder or designee to execute a
contract with InfoGard Laboratories to conduct a security assessment of the
Clerk-Recorder and related County systems
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE the Clerk-Recorder or designee to execute a contract with
InfoGard Laboratories to conduct a security assessment of the Clerk-Recorder and
related County systems.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total cost of this project will not exceed $54,560 and will be funded by dedicated
Recorder Modernization funds. There is no General Fund impact.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The Recorder Division is dedicated to maintaining the confidentially, integrity and
availability of its electronic recording systems. Heightened physical and electronic
security requirements call for testing to assure a secure environment for this process.
InfoGard Laboratories is accredited by NIST (National Institute of Standards and
Technology, a division of the United States Department of Commerce) and is certified by
the State of California as a Small Business.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Recorder Division is unable to show they have a secure and reliable delivery
system for electronic recording, they will not meet the requirements of SB 578, the
Electronic Recording Delivery Act, and will be unable to participate. If the Recorder
Division electronic recording systems were compromised in some way, official land
records could be altered prior to recordation.
