Project Approval Lifecycle (PAL) Information Technology (IT) Projects

Below is a list of proposed IT Projects that are currently in the PAL review and approval process with the California Department of Technology (CDT). For purposes of this list “PAL Stage” refers to the last document officially submitted to CDT.

Projects are removed from this list when they exit the PAL process because: 1) the Agency/state entity receives CDT’s approval to begin project implementation; 2) CDT approves a Project Delegation Request; 3) the Agency/state entity withdraws the project; or 4) the CDT denies the project approval.

7502-006 Cal-Secure Risk Management Project (Cal Secure)

For California state government information security programs to successfully improve against a backdrop of ever increasing and sophisticated threats, we must be able to effectively manage security risks and measure maturity across the enterprise and within each state entity. Doing so requires automation of reporting, security compliance, program and policy management, asset management, incident management, oversight, audits, assessment tracking and reporting.
