The Office of Information and Technology supports a complex set of networks providing comprehensive IT services to the three Hygienic Laboratory locations. The office maintains around-the-clock laboratory operations, including testing in clinical care, environmental and emergency preparedness.

The Hygienic Laboratory is regulated by many national and state agencies, each with their own data security and confidentiality requirements. To be compliant with mandated rules and regulations from such agencies, IT operates a rigorous set of security protocols, including firewalls, encryption, controlled access and monitored surveillance systems.
