  All 24 agencies has significant problems in allowing unauthorized access to sensitive information, said Joel Willemssen, director of the GAO's accounting and information management division.Auditors proved that point by trying to hack into government computers from remote locations.
  
  Our auditors have been successful, in almost every test, in readily gaining unauthorized access that would allow intruders to read, modify or delete data for whatever purpose they have in mind, the GAO report said.
  
  The agencies be not good at monitoring access inside their own work forces, either, the report said.

  Yet you still hear dire warnings from people like Joel Willemssen, Director of the Civil Agencies Information Systems (DCAIS), Accounting and Information Management Division (AIMD) of the U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO). His statement before the Subcommittee on Government Management, Information and Technology (SGMIT) of the Committee on Government Reform and Oversight (GRO) of the U.S. House of Representatives teaches us a lot. For one thing, just announcing his statement reveals a bloated hierarchy of committees and subcommittees that, by their very nature, are virtually paralyzed in their ability to get anything done.

  "By not following sound security practices, FAA has increased the risk that inappropriate individuals may have gained access to its facilities, information or resources," said Joel C. Willemssen, the GAO's director of civil agencies information systems, in a report to the House Science Committee.The panel had asked the GAO to investigate the extent to which the FAA relied on foreign nationals for Y2K preparedness.The nation's air traffic systems were at greater risk to people wishing to insert faulty or deliberately harmful changes to the computer code, Willemssen said.One of the systems reviewed by the foreign citizens helps manage the flow of air traffic across the nation.When the investigators issued a draft report in early December, the FAA immediately started the background checks that should have been conducted initially, said chief spokesman Eliot Brenner.The checks are now almost complete and have revealed no security problems, he said."We didn't follow our procedures," Brenner said."It was pointed out to us.We fixed it immediately and the system worked."None of the computer systems involved were classified and none experienced Y2K problems, Brenner said.He added that the FAA is reviewing all its software contracts to discover why some initially failed to conduct the security checks.They plan to issue a report by the end of the month, he said.
