An entire US government program is to be suspended in order to fix vulnerabilities discovered during a security audit.
The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) announced that the program, used to complete background investigations, was reviewed following a high-profile data breach in another department according to Reuters. OPM said it would take e-QIP offline for 4-6 weeks until security can be enhanced, and that there was no evidence that the flaw had been exploited by attackers.
