From: FedTech
The OIG runs automated security scans on 80 to 90 percent of its IT assets every 10 days and is working to boost those metrics.
The federal inspector general community is known for shining a light on wrongdoing and deficiencies outside its walls.
So, when Jaime Vargas with the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Inspector General agreed to share how his office is faring in the security realm, FedTech jumped at the opportunity.
The OIG has one of the highest FISMA compliance scores in the federal government, and Vargas, its chief information security officer, was honored last month for designing, developing, and implementing an Information Security Continuous Monitoring (ISCM) Program.
