In February, the DeWitt County Government formed the Compliance and Technology ad hock committee. 

DeWitt County Board Chair Joe Witte explains that the committee was formed with a life span of one year. They hope to use that year to find out if the county is complying with its own ordinances and to keep up with changes in technology to ensure they're using it to its fullest capabilities. 

Witte says they took recommendations from Hart Technology on how they can improve the security of their systems and create policies that ensure safety from any cyber-attacks. 

While the county board hopes one year will be long enough to accomplish all the goals of the Compliance and Technology Committee, Witte understands that change takes a long time. 

The Technology and Compliance Committee will also look to create new and better onboarding practices for new employees.
