Relating to the confidentiality of information used to prevent, detect, respond to, or investigate a hostile act of a foreign adversary of the United States.

HB 4711 amends Texas law to expand confidentiality protections for specific security-related information collected by state government entities. It makes confidential details like emergency response staffing plans, tactical response strategies, communication numbers for first responders, critical infrastructure vulnerability assessments, encryption codes for public systems, and certain federal-sharing reports. These protections apply when the information is gathered to prevent, detect, or investigate hostile acts by foreign adversaries of the United States. The bill directly affects Texas government agencies handling homeland security and emergency response data.
