Enterprise web standards

  • Web Addresses and Hosting
    These policies are to ensure secure, reliable, cost-effective websites, as well as present a customer-centric, single face of government. It's also important to us that residents recognize the valuable services state government delivers, which is obscured when agencies use a .com, .org or .edu address.
