The Georgia Secretary of State strongly believes in the (3) three pillars of information security. The Confidentiality, Integrity & Availability of data that resides on our systems are most important. The Georgia Secretary of State is committed to protecting the voter, business & professional licensing information which you have entrusted to us. Our goal is to ensure that your confidential information is not only kept private, but that it is also impeccably accurate and readily available when needed.

In order to ensure the security of any and all personal information (PII) collected from constituents, information will always be encrypted when being transmitted not only across the internet but also while being transmitted within our internal network.

The Office of the Georgia Secretary of State regularly tests our information security defenses.

We also work with government (GTA) and private partners who validate and test our information security defenses.
Such assessments may include reviews of documentation and process as well as varying degrees of computer and network vulnerability scanning. Any identified issues are rapidly mitigated and corrected.
