In a blistering report, the inspector general’s office in the Department of Veterans Affairs said a series of missteps led to theft of hardware containing data on millions of veterans and held up response after the fact.
The report, published Tuesday, blames agency officials for acting “with indifference and little sense of urgency” after the loss of the computer hardware in a house robbery. This, in part, caused the department’s slow response to the breach. The theft occurred on May 3, but the secretary of Veterans Affairs was not notified until May 16, and Congress and veterans did not hear of it until May 22. (Download a PDF of the report.)
