An audit of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory found the government-funded Bay Area-lab failed to effectively implement its security system. Three of four security plans reviewed were incomplete and some system changes made within the lab were done without the consent of federal officials. The National Nuclear Security Administration s (NNSA) policies hadn t been updated since 2008, leaving them outside of current federal and DOE guidelines. Officials with Livermore agreed with the findings but disagreed with some of the audit recommendations, insisting they didn’t echo the lab’s overall risk management program.
