Kan. Admin. Regs. § 1-38-1 - General
Current and pending advances in the technology of data processing provide opportunities for acquiring, storing and interrelating very large files of data. These interrelated files and the computer programming techniques which control them are referred to, respectively, as "data bases" and "data base management systems." Although these data may be in the physical custody of the director of computer services the formal responsibility for the content, organization, and interrelationships of agency data remains with the organizationally responsible agency officer. If agency data bases become a part of a larger "state data base," formal responsibility for the content, organization and interrelationships then rests jointly with the agencies concerned. The director of computer services provides safeguards for data files (tape, disk), data transaction (both electronic and physically submitted), and computer programs, program libraries and all operating system programs and proprietary systems.
Notes
State regulations are updated quarterly; we currently have two versions available. Below is a comparison between our most recent version and the prior quarterly release. More comparison features will be added as we have more versions to compare.
