What Texas law asks of state agencies
State agencies have trained employees in cybersecurity every year since House Bill 3834. The requirement now sits in Texas Government Code Chapter 2063, administered by the Texas Cyber Command (TXCC), with agencies tracking completion each fiscal year.
Who must train
Employees who use a computer for at least 25% of their duties, plus elected and appointed officials such as board and commission members.
A certified program
Training must be a state-certified program. This course is TXCC-certified for fiscal year 2026-2027 under Section 2063.102.
Every fiscal year
Completion is tracked by the state fiscal year, September 1 through August 31, and renews annually.
Foreign adversary rules
Section 572.070 prohibits accepting gifts, transportation, or lodging from foreign adversary sources and requires reporting contacts to the Texas Ethics Commission within 30 days. Modules 3 and 4 cover it in depth.
This page summarizes common obligations under Texas Government Code Chapter 2063 and Section 572.070. Confirm the requirements for specific positions with your legal counsel.
