Most of the deficiencies identified by the independent public accounting firm KPMG, LLP were related to access controls, configuration management, and segregation of duties for ICE’s core financial and feeder systems.  The deficiencies collectively limited ICE’s ability to ensure that critical financial and operational data were maintained in such a manner as to ensure their confidentiality, integrity, and availability.  We recommend that ICE, in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security Chief Information Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, make improvements to ICE’ financial management systems and associated information technology security program.
