On June 2, 2025, Governor Greg Abbott signed House Bill 150, officially establishing the Texas Cyber Command (TCC). Headquartered at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), TCC is now the largest state-based cybersecurity department in the United States. This initiative safeguards Texas's critical infrastructure, government systems, and private sector entities from escalating cyber threats. TCC's comprehensive approach includes the establishment of a Cyber Threat Intelligence Center, a digital forensics lab, and an incident response unit. These components will work collaboratively to identify vulnerabilities, respond to cyber incidents, and provide training to state employees on preventing breaches. The initiative is backed by a $135 million investment from the state's General Revenue Fund, with UTSA contributing an additional $60.4 million for property acquisition and renovation. San Antonio's selection as the headquarters leverages its status as a cybersecurity hub, boasting the nation's second-largest concentration of cyber experts, surpassed only by Washington, D.C. The city's existing infrastructure, including partnerships with federal agencies like the NSA, FBI, and DHS, positions it as an ideal location for TCC's operations.
