The Government Accountability Office has cited opportunities for improvement in the Federal Housing Finance Agencys internal controls in a recent report, including a still pending recommendation to beef up the FHFAs information security controls. Mandated by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, the GAO said its audit of the Finance Agencys fiscal years 2011 and 2010 revealed that the FHFA had not fully implemented its information security program as per GAOs recommendations in previous reports, resulting in several new information systems vulnerabilities over the last year.
