State Field Offices are not Protecting Social Security Beneficiary Information from Potential Abuse and/or Misuse.

Abstract

Social Security gives personal beneficiary information to States for their use in administering federally financed public assistance programs. State field offices are not adequately protecting such information, and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has not developed a consistent and comprehensive security program for States to use in protecting it. GAO recommends that the Secretary of HHS do so. (Author)
