OIG Report No. 2014-IT-B-019: 2014 Audit of the Board's Information Security Program

The Office of Inspector General is pleased to present its report on the 2014 audit of the information security program of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board). We performed this audit pursuant to requirements in the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA), Title III, Public Law 107-347 (December 17, 2002), which requires each agency Inspector General to conduct an annual independent evaluation of the agency's information security program and practices.

We provided a draft of our report for review and comment. In your response, you outlined actions that have been or will be taken to address our recommendation. We have included your response as appendix B to our report. We will use the results of our review of the Board's information security program and practices to respond to specific questions in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's FY 2014 Inspector General Federal Information Security Management Act Reporting Metrics.

We appreciate the cooperation we received from Board personnel during our review. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this report or any related issues.
