IG: Cybersecurity Weaknesses persist throughout the U.S. Department of Energy’s unclassified networks, including those of the National Nuclear Security Administration. IG issued 83 recommendations for improving cybersecurity, including enhancing vulnerability management and boosting the security of web applications. The IG report comes as the DOE and eight other federal agencies targeted for follow-on attacks after the SolarWinds supply chain attack continue their investigations. The government says the attacks were part of a Russian cyberespionage operation. The impact of the attack on the DOE was not reflected in the IG report.”]
