Dallas tops in 2019 Digital Cities Survey

Dallas, TX – The City of Dallas made the top 10 list in the 2019 Digital Cities Survey presented by The Center for Digital Government (CDG). 
The survey, in its 19th year, recognizes cities that use technology to tackle social challenges, enhance services, strengthen cybersecurity, and more. 
Dallas was recognized for its online crime reporting tool and for its partnership with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to develop the Dallas Strategic Cybersecurity Plan. 
We’re constantly looking to find ways to provide innovative solutions to improve efficiency, security, and collaboration using technology,” said Hugh Miller, Dallas’ Chief Information Officer. “We intend to continue looking ahead to find ways to use data and technology to improve the services of the City and lives of our residents.”
Dallas was recognized for its online crime reporting tool and for its partnership with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to develop the Dallas Strategic Cybersecurity Plan. 
 “The top Digital Cities this year are taking the IT department far beyond the role of service provider,” said Phil Bertolini, co-director of CDG. “They’re exploring creative ways to leverage their technology investments and redefining the role of the public-sector technology leader at the city level.”
 Dallas will be honored Thursday, November 21, along with the other top 10 winners at a special awards dinner during the National League of Cities’ annual conference in San Antonio.
