Clarno: OLCC making progress in cannabis tracking

Oregon Secretary of State Bev Clarno released Wednesday a follow-up report on the 2018 audit of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission’s Cannabis Information System. It found that OLCC has taken steps to improve the state’s recreational marijuana program and the information systems that support it but found opportunities to improve recreational marijuana regulation processes and IT security.

“Voters approved the production, sale and use of recreational marijuana in Oregon, and it is important that OLCC has a secure and reliable system to track cannabis in the state,” Clarno said.

” Recreational marijuana is a high-risk industry. This follow-up report identifies improvements made by OLCC, and several areas where OLCC can enhance the tracking systems and increase security to make the Cannabis Information Systems more secure. ”

The agency is working with the Cannabis Tracking System vendor to improve system functionality and update security requirements.
