Audit Finds OR Consumer, Business Services Department Needs Cybersecurity Improvements

(Salem, OR) -- A new report finds the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services needs to improve cybersecurity safeguards. An audit by the Oregon Secretary of State finds the agency has failed to implement basic steps to protect the agency's computer systems from hackers. Audits in 2016 and 2018 also found the problems and the most recent audit shows the agency still has work to do. In a response, the head of DCBS says they agree with the audit and they've formed an executive oversight committee to track compliance with the necessary steps to increase computer security.
