The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars. The Comptroller General of the United States is the leader of the GAO, and is appointed to a 15-year term by the U.S. President. The GAO wants to support Congress, while at the same time doing right by the citizens of the United States. They audit, investigate, perform analyses, issue legal decisions and report anything that the government is doing. This is one of their reports.

As requested, our testimony will focus on the results of our recent reviews of the Department of State and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Significant computer security weaknesses at both these organizations threaten the integrity of their operations, and we have made numerous specific recommendations for improving State and FAA's information security posture. Unfortunately, such weaknesses are typical at most federal agencies we evaluate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was ineffective in all critical areas included in GAO's computer security review--facilities physical security, operational systems information security, future systems modernization security, and management structure and policy implementation. Because physical security is the agency's first line of defense against criminal and terrorist attack, the failure to beef up physical security at air traffic control towers, terminal radar approach control facilities, and en route centers places property and the safety of the flying public at risk. Information security safeguards cannot be fully effective as long as FAA continues to operate with significant physical security vulnerabilities. Also, because FAA has not assessed physical security controls at all its facilities since 1993, it does not know how vulnerable they are. Similarly, FAA does not know how vulnerable its operational air traffic control systems are and cannot adequately protect them until it performs the appropriate system risk assessments and certifies and accredits air traffic control systems. Moreover, FAA is not effectively incorporating security controls into new air traffic control systems. Until FAA carries out its computer security responsibilities, sensitive information is at risk of being compromised and flight services interrupted. GAO summarized this study, along with the preceding report (GAO/AIMD-98-145), in testimony before Congress; see: Information Security: Serious Weaknesses Put State Department and FAA Operations at Risk, by Gene L. Dodaro, Assistant Comptroller General for Accounting and Information Management Issues, before the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs. GAO/T-AIMD-98-170, May 19 (14 pages).

Book excerpt: "While the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has taken steps to protect its air traffic control systems from cyber-based and other threats, significant security control weaknesses remain, threatening the agency's ability to ensure the safe and uninterrupted operation of the national airspace system (NAS). These include weaknesses in controls intended to prevent, limit, and detect unauthorized access to computer resources, such as controls for protecting system boundaries, identifying and authenticating users, authorizing users to access systems, encrypting sensitive data, and auditing and monitoring activity on FAA's systems. Additionally, shortcomings in boundary protection controls between less-secure systems and the operational NAS environment increase the risk from these weaknesses." --
