Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Oct. 14, 1998
Report No. AIMD-99-2
Subject
Summary:

The Bureau of the Public Debt processes investments and redemptions of U.S. Treasury securities, makes interest payments, accounts for the resulting debt, and provides financial reports to the public and the federal government. The Bureau has implemented effective computer controls overall. However, GAO found some weaknesses in general controls involving access to data and programs, physical access, contingency planning, and security management. GAO also found weaknesses in the controls for two key Bureau financial applications maintained and operated at the data center in Parkersburg, West Virginia. The Bureau needs to further restrict system access rights and improve security monitoring. It also needs to ensure that established procedures are followed to prevent unauthorized deletion of exception reports. In most cases, the Bureau has corrected or is correcting the vulnerabilities GAO cited.
