Single Audit of JSI Research and Training Institute, Inc., and Affiliates for the Year Ended September 30, 2020
Objective: To determine whether the Social Security Administration’s Enterprise Risk Management program complies with Office of Management and Budget Circular No. A-123, Management’s Responsibility for Enterprise Risk Management and Internal Control.
To combat money laundering in the United States, Congress enacted a series of laws, collectively referred to as the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), requiring financial institutions in the U.S. to assist government agencies in detecting and preventing money laundering and other financial crimes. The BSA requires financial institutions to create “paper trails” by keeping records and filing reports on certain transactions to the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.The BSA’s reporting and recordkeeping provisions apply to banks, savings and loans, and credit unions as well as other financial institutions, including money services businesses (MSBs). The Postal Service is classified as a MSB as it sells money orders, conducts Sure Money wire transfers (an electronic money transfer service), and sells gift cards. The BSA requires all MSBs to establish and maintain an effective written anti-money laundering program.
The EPA Needs to Develop and Implement Information Technology Processes to Comply with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act for Fiscal Year 2023
We concluded that the EPA achieved an overall maturity level of Level 3, Consistently Implemented, for the five security functions and nine domains outlined in the Office of Management and Budget's FY 2023 - 2024 Inspector General Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 (FISMA) Reporting Metrics. This means that the EPA consistently implemented its information security policies and procedures, but quantitative and qualitative effectiveness measures are lacking. We identified that the EPA had deficiencies in three areas.
Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Defense Intelligence Agency’s (DIA’s) overall information security program based on DIA’s implementation of the Federal Information Security Modernization Act. We issued our results in a classified report on August 2, 2024.
