Federal Agencies Receive Failing Grades for Info Security

Rep. Adam Putnam, (R-Fla.) in conjunction with the House Government Reform Committee’s Subcommittee on Technology, Information Policy, Intergovernmental Relations and the Census, issued a comparison chart, using an A through F grading scheme, to evaluate government agency information security in 2002 and 2003. It should be noted that the governmentwide average rose from an F to a D this past year. Feel more secure now! See this Federal Computer Week article for more details as well as to review a copy of the chart.
