Information technology (IT) systems are a critical component for the delivery of government services. These should support the efficient and effective processing of information for the state. Appropriate access and security of these systems will ensure that public sector information and assets are protected. 

Each year, the reports will build on our first information systems report from 2025. The report will provide a summary of our results over information system controls. In addition, this year we will focus on the following areas:

• Maturity assessment over key general IT controls for a selected number of departments, which will include a deeper analysis on the maturity of their processes and security  
• Updates on the state’s progress to address the use and risk of legacy systems
• Financial system projects and upgrades, including insights on approach, governance, key success factors, and lessons learned.
