The DoD Isn't Fixing Its Security Problems
2020-04-17 15:35

In a majority of cases, DoD has not completed the cybersecurity training and awareness tasks it set out to.

The report focuses on three ongoing DoD cybersecurity hygiene initiatives.

Four are still pending, and the status of the seven others is unknown, because no one at DoD has kept track of the progress.

GAO repeatedly identified lack of status updates and accountability as core issues within DoD's cybersecurity awareness and education efforts.

There were even DoD departments lacking information on which users should have their network access revoked for failure to complete trainings.
