Episode Details

Austins Chief Information Security Officer, Dr. Brian Gardner, and two other tech staffers were dismissed last month amidst an ongoing city review. The union revealed they had side businesses and were drawing salaries from both Austin and Dallas simultaneously. Gardner, who previously served as Dallass Chief Information Officer, was known for leading the controversial One ATS IT project in Austin. The city asserts the firings were not due to cyber threats or breaches, and the union supports the allegations of salary double-dipping. As the review continues, Austins tech department faces trust and oversight questions.
