            In order to ensure the security of the secretary of state's on-line
       business filing system, the secretary is directed to implement a
       password-protected system for any filings, updates, or other filing
       requirements under title 7, Colorado Revised Statutes.
       
       
       
       Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
            SECTION 1.  24-21-111 (1), Colorado Revised Statutes, is
       amended to read:
            24-21-111.  Electronic filing - authority - electronic access -
       passwords - rules.  (1) (a)  Notwithstanding any provision of law to the
       contrary, the secretary of state may require any filing to be made by
       electronic means as determined by the secretary of state.
            (b)  In order to ensure the security of the secretary of
       state's on-line business filing system, the secretary shall
       implement, under such conditions as the secretary may
       determine, a password-protected system for and take
       appropriate actions to address fraudulent activities against
       altering data in any filings, updates, or other filing
       requirements under title 7, C.R.S., while still allowing for
       access to and retrieval of publicly available  records, including
       a certificate of good standing, without a password.
            SECTION 2.  Appropriation.  In addition to any other

       Colorado Revised Statutes, not otherwise appropriated, to the department
       of state, for allocation to the administration division, for the fiscal year
       beginning July 1, 2011, the sum of three hundred sixty thousand nine
       hundred fifty-six dollars ($360,956) cash funds and 1.0 FTE, or so much
       thereof as may be necessary, for the implementation of this act.
            SECTION 3.  Safety clause.  The general assembly hereby finds,
       determines, and declares that this act is necessary for the immediate
       preservation of the public peace, health, and safety.
