SB 633 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: meeting in closed session to consider information technology security issues.

SB 633 allows the ethics commission and elections commission to hold closed sessions specifically to discuss information technology security issues affecting their systems. The bill requires these commissions to periodically publish a public summary of such discussions, removing confidential or proprietary details to protect sensitive information. It also restricts access to IT security records, permitting disclosure only to two legislative committees (the joint committee on information policy and technology, and the joint legislative audit committee) for oversight. Additionally, the commissions must specify the exact reason for each closed session before convening. This legislation balances private discussions on security threats with transparency requirements for public accountability.
