State outlines Web security review

by Cathy Wurzer, Minnesota Public Radio

The Pawlenty administration is enlisting the help of the private sector to review the security of hundreds of state-run Web sites. The governor called for the review after the Legislative Auditor reported recently that the state's license tab renewal Web site had "serious security weaknesses" in protecting personal information. Dana Badgerow, commissioner of the Department of Administration, is in charge of the review, and she talked with MPR's Cathy Wurzer.
