The largest cyber attack in history took place at the Office of Personnel Management earlier this spring. More than 22 million former and present federal workers had social security numbers, health records, and other sensitive information stolen.
Cyber experts now say that this particular breach could happen again if proper protection measures aren’t taken.
Congress says a lack of oversight and responsibility is what led to the theft of the personal information during the Office of Personnel Management Breach.
Congress spends about 82 billion dollars a year on Information Technology, but Senator Boozman says there isn’t a lot to show for it.
