Senator Jason Anavitarte has called for immediate action, urging the Georgia House of Representatives to pass legislation to establish a Georgia Cyber Command. The proposed measure would transfer the responsibilities of the Georgia Technology Authority to the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency. A statewide chief information security officer would be appointed to oversee the command, fostering partnerships between the public and private sectors for information sharing. Earlier this year, Georgia passed SB 93, which prohibits state employees from using social media platforms controlled by foreign adversaries on state devices. Senator Anavitarte sponsored both SB 93 and SB 97, emphasizing the need for robust cybersecurity measures.   Story 8: Houck   Colin Houck, a standout athlete at Parkview High School, has consistently exceeded expectations in both baseball and football. As the school's all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns in football, Houck saved his best performance for his senior season on the baseball field. He received numerous accolades, including being named Daily Post's County Player of the Year and Gatorade National Player of the Year. Despite the scrutiny from scouts, teammates, media, and his own high expectations, Houck thrived and handled the pressure exceptionally well. His impressive statistics, such as a .487 batting average, 50 RBIs, 58 hits, and 58 runs scored, highlight his exceptional performance. Houck attributes his success to eliminating distractions and prioritizing his team. His leadership and achievements have made a lasting impact at Parkview High School.   Story 9: Stripling   Staying with baseball, Landon Stripling, a talented athlete from Parkview High School, demonstrated his ability to adapt and excel on the field during the 2023 season. As a junior, he transitioned from being exclusively a pitcher to also contributing as a hitter, earning him the Pitcher of the Year award. In his senior year, Stripling faced another adjustment when injuries forced him to take on a starting role instead of being the team's closer as originally planned. However, his experience as a starter in previous seasons made the transition smooth. Stripling's impressive statistics, including a 10-3 record, 1.55 ERA, and 68 strikeouts, showcased his pitching prowess. Additionally, he had a remarkable offensive season with a .430 batting average, 13 home runs, and 45 RBIs. Stripling's consistency and dedication to the game earned him recognition as the Gwinnett Dugout Club's Dual Player of the Year. While he has committed to playing college baseball at Texas Tech, he remains open to the possibility of being drafted into Major League Baseball. Stripling remains focused on his development and taking each day as it comes.
