Nevada Administrative Code Chapter 242 - Information Services

Here’s a refined overview of Nevada Administrative Code (NAC) Chapter 242 – Information Services:

🧭 1. Scope of Chapter 242

Most sections of NAC Chapter 242, including definitions and procedural requirements (NAC 242.010–.100; 242.120–.160), have been repealed as of September 16, 2024 under regulation R082‑24A (regulations.justia.com).

📘 2. Remaining Active Section

NAC 242.110 – Adoption of State Information Security Policies

NAC 242.110 mandates that all Executive Branch agencies, along with their employees, contractors, and third parties with access to state information technology, must adhere to the current State Information Security Policies, Standards, and Procedures, as published by the State Information Security Committee (law.cornell.edu).

These policies are adopted by reference and are available free online via the Office of the Chief Information Officer’s website (law.cornell.edu).

🔄 3. Oversight & Updates

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) reviews updates to the Security Policies.

If a revision is deemed unsuitable for Nevada, a public hearing must be held within 30 days of its publication.

If no objection is sustained after the hearing, the revision automatically becomes effective (law.cornell.edu).
