PBGC Began Developing Methods for Oversight and Administration of Cloud Computing Service Providers – Work is Needed for the Expected Increase in Externally Hosted Systems (AUD-2015-11/PA-14-100) August 6, 2015
This report details the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation's (PBGC) efforts to adopt cloud computing technologies. We recommended that PBGC establish criteria, standards, and definitions to identify cloud service providers and procure vendors with a standard risk-based approach. We also recommended the establishment and implementation of controls to provide reasonable assurance that foreign personnel with access to PBGC data receive the appropriate background checks. PBGC agreed with the recommendations and has begun actions to address them.
