Omnibus spending bill complicates administration’s reorg plans
***
Appropriations committees cited the Government Accountability Office’s 80 recommendations on OPM cybersecurity. “To date, OPM has not implemented the vast majority of these recommendations,” the appropriators report on the omnibus reads. “OPM is expected to take the steps necessary to complete outstanding GAO recommendations to improve its information security.”
OPM must give congressional appropriators quarterly updates describing its progress to improve network security and infrastructure. The agency must work with the Homeland Security Department and U.S. Digital Service on this improvement plan, and the OPM inspector general will also review and comment on it.
