Financial Management Service: Areas for Improvement in Computer Controls

Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Oct. 20, 1998
Report No. AIMD-99-10
Subject
Summary:

General computer control weaknesses at the Financial Management Service (FMS)--the government's financial manager, central disburser, and collections agent--and its contractor data centers put its financial systems data at significant risk of unauthorized changes, disclosure, and loss. These weaknesses include (1) inappropriate access to computer programs, data, and equipment; (2) inadequate segregation of duties; (3) improper application software development and change control procedures; and (4) incomplete or untested service continuity and contingency plans. As a result, billions of dollars of payments and collections are vulnerable to fraud. FMS has corrected some of these weaknesses. However, it cannot guarantee that weaknesses will be detected and promptly corrected until it has an effective entitywide security management program.
