By: FEDweek StaffThe bipartisan leaders of the House federal workforce subcommittee have said they will continue their scrutiny of login.gov in light of a March inspector general report finding that the GSA had “misled” other agencies about its security features.
Chairman Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, and ranking Democrat Kweisi Mfume of Maryland have followed a hearing on that report with a request that the GAO perform its own evaluation, on topics including how well login.gov performs and whether there were instances of fraud against customer agencies due to the site’s failure to meet identity proofing and authentication standards.
They also asked the GAO to report on what data client agencies are required to share and how that data is collected, stored and secured.
They further requested further information from senior officials of the GSA, FedRAMP and the Technology Modernization Fund “on what misrepresentations were made and whether those misrepresentation affected login.gov’s ability to obtain FedRAMP authorization and a TMF award.”
