EIV data must be used for official purposes only and must not be disclosed in any way that violates the privacy of our program participants.
MSHDA’s Office of Housing Voucher Programs’ (OHVP) Security Officer (SO) will maintain EIV access logs, granting or revoking access as appropriate. The SO will conduct annual security awareness training to all Existing Housing staff and contracted agents who have access to EIV materials, and obtain a user Agreement from all trainees. The SO will report any incidences of potential compromise of secure data to MSHDA’s Executive Director, and oversee the physical security of EIV data.
