How will the New Hire data be safeguarded once it is submitted?
Security and privacy of New Hire data are important issues for all those involved in the implementation of this nationwide program. Oklahoma law requires safeguarding confidential information. All data will be sent from Oklahoma to the National New Hire Directory over secure and dedicated lines. Federal law requires that the Secretary of DHHS establish and implement safeguards to protect the integrity and security of information in the NDNH and to restrict access to and use of the information to authorized persons and purposes.
