Cyber Security at DOE Still Lacking

Patience Wait writes on GCN.com:

The Energy Department continues to struggle with information security and many of its weaknesses are the same as in past years, according to a new report by the department’s inspector general.

Even though DOE has undertaken several actions to improve its cybersecurity posture, “we continued to observe deficiencies that exposed its critical systems to an increased risk of compromise,” according to Gregory Friedman, the inspector general. “In several respects, these findings parallel those reported in 2005.”
