This agency was historically responsible for establishing and overseeing statewide IT policies, IT project oversight, and cybersecurity standards across executive branch agencies.

Key Functions Typically Included (when AST was active):

Ensuring alignment with state objectives.

Important Note:
As of 2019, the functions of the Agency for State Technology (AST) were transferred to the Florida Department of Management Services (DMS) under the Division of State Technology (DST). Thus, Chapter 74 may no longer be actively updated or might be integrated with DMS-related rules under Chapter 60 (DMS).
