The Haryana government is preparing a comprehensive "InfoSec policy" for which Information Security management Office (ISMO) has already been set up.
A spokesman of Electronics and Information Technology Department said today that a dedicated team of security specialists is engaged in carrying out Vulnerability Analysis (VA) and Penetration Testing (PT) on a continuous basis for 30 IT assets of the atate.
There is a plan to cover all the IT assets of state within one year, he added.
He said that there is also a plan to set up a Security Operations Center (SOC) for real time monitoring of security events and gathering threat intelligence both from preventive and remedial perspectives.
"So far, 53 web portals have been audited as part of a continuous security assessment process by ISMO," he said.
He said that about 35 electronics services of various departments are planned to be rolled out throughout the State Portal and Service Delivery Gateway (SSDG). Out of these, 15 services have been rolled out and are live.
For better service delivery, these services have been integrated with Rapid Assessment Service System.
He said that new IT Policy would provide several incentives for Information Technology and Information Technology Enabled Services, BPO, Electronics Manufacturing and would also facilitate investment by creating investor friendly environment, providing speedy clearances and developing reliable infrastructure.
Apart from this, Communication and Connectivity Infrastructure Policy is also being revised keeping in view various new guidelines issued by the Central government, he said.
