UTICA — Oneida County has again been recognized as one of the nation’s top digital counties by the Center for Digital Government.
The award identifies the best technology practices among U.S. counties nationwide, honoring leading examples of counties that deploy technology to improve services and create efficiencies.
Oneida County was ranked number six in the 150,000-249,999 population category in this year’s 15th annual Digital Counties Survey.
The Center for Digital Government said the following about Oneida County’s digital prowess in its survey report published in Government Technology magazine.
“A perennial member of the top digital counties, Oneida County, N.Y., shows no signs of slowing. One focus on the minds of many has been to upgrade cyberdefenses through remote backups and constant attack monitoring. Oneida has designed and installed a Continuity of Operations/Disaster Recovery data center specifically designed with data segregation that will allow other municipal governments to securely store their data in a physical location where that municipality could work from in the event of a server room disaster at their primary data center. In 2016, the county decided to conduct a Cybersecurity Risk Assessment. Recommendations were then established into the framework for a cybersecurity program in March 2017.
In addition to improving digital cyberinfrastructure, Oneida also focused on physical infrastructure. Oneida, in collaboration with neighboring counties, began working with the Mohawk Valley Transportation Management Center to enable a seamless management of the transportation network within Oneida County for the traveling public. The project is looking to build consensus with local elected officials on the importance of smart transportation infrastructure to increase awareness and generate project support in the form of a project working group. Additionally, the project is working to identify key corridors to be upgraded, develop a GIS database of smart infrastructure, and create a road map for implementing applicable, cost-effective solutions and strategies with tangible benefits.”
