Corrective Action Planned:

NYSED ITS has been in discussion with the Office of Information Technology (OITS) to write a program that would automate notification of changes made to the Café production environment. These notifications will be sent to a Manager in NYSED ITS without access to the Café system. A review process will be implemented by the Manager to review the notification, match it to a ticket in the ticketing system and verify the change. NYSED’s change management policy will be updated to reflect this. The estimated implementation date for this action is November 2019.
