Notification: FY 2020 EPA's Compliance with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014
Project #OA&E-FY20-0033, May 5, 2020
The OIG’s objective is to conduct an independent evaluation of the EPA’s compliance with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Fiscal Year 2020 Inspector General FISMA Reporting Metrics. The OIG plans to begin fieldwork on our evaluation of the EPA's compliance with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014. The OIG also plans to evaluate elements of the EPA’s information security program to determine whether the Agency is able to obtain and generate relevant and quality information to make risk-based decisions to secure the Agency’s network during the COVID-19 pandemic.
UPDATE: This project resulted in a report.
OIG Independence of EPA
The EPA's Office of Inspector General is a part of the EPA, although Congress provides our funding separate from the agency, to ensure our independence. We were created pursuant to the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended.
