Information Technology Management Letter for the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers Component of the FY 2016 Department of Homeland Security Financial Statement Audit
Most of the deficiencies identified by the independent public accounting firm KPMG, LLP were related to access controls and configuration management of Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC) core financial systems. The deficiencies collectively limited FLETC’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 FLETC, in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security’s Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Acting Chief Financial Officer (ACFO), make improvements to FLETC’s financial management systems and associated information technology security program.
