The Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) directs the Office of Inspector General (OIG) to conduct an annual evaluation of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) information security program.  FISMA, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) establish information technology (IT) security guidance and standards for Federal agencies. We conducted this evaluation to assess HUD’s compliance with Federal guidance, assess the overall effectiveness of their program, and respond to the OMB reporting questions.

The OIG has determined that the contents of this report would not be appropriate for public disclosure and has therefore limited its distribution to selected officials.  Please contact the Office of Evaluations at [email protected] to request a copy of this report.
