OIG Report No. 2014-IT-C-020: 2014 Audit of the CFPB'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 Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). We performed this audit pursuant to requirements in the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002, 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.

As part of the audit, we also reviewed security controls for two select agency systems. The detailed results of our reviews of the security controls for these systems will be transmitted under separate, restricted cover. In addition, we will use the results of our review of the CFPB'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 CFPB personnel during our review. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this report or any related issues.
