- Management Report: Improvements Are Needed in the Bureau of the Fiscal Service’s Information Systems Controls, GAO-14-693R: Published: Jul 18, 2014. Publicly Released: Jul 18, 2014: “During GAO’s audit of the Schedules of Federal Debt Managed by the Department of the Treasury’s (Treasury) Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service) for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, GAO identified 14 new information systems general control deficiencies related to security management, access controls, and configuration management. In a separately issued Limited Official Use Only report, GAO communicated to the Fiscal Service management detailed information regarding the 14 new information systems general control deficiencies and made 16 recommendations to address these control deficiencies. These new deficiencies in Fiscal Service’s information systems controls, along with unresolved control deficiencies from prior audits, collectively represent a significant deficiency in Fiscal Service’s internal control over financial reporting. The potential effect of these control deficiencies on the Schedule of Federal Debt financial reporting for fiscal year 2013 was mitigated primarily by Fiscal Service’s physical security measures and compensating management and reconciliation controls designed to detect potential misstatements on the Schedule of Federal Debt.”
