n the State Department. The report comes at a time of
heightened concern about both cyber-security and torrents of information
leaks in the U.S. government.According to the audit report, the agency has
statutory responsibility as State's "lead office for information assurance
and security." Its top official, currently William Lay, is known as State's
Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), who reports up to State's Chief
Information Officer, currently Steven C. Taylor.Despite the agency's august
legal status, IRM/IA's staff apparently has no sense of what security functions
their unit is actually required to perform, has failed for years to
update information security manuals used by thousands of other State Department
personnel, and has often left important details about the vulnerability
of State's information systems where they can be accessed by people with
lower-level security classifications.CLICK HERE FOR THE AUDITThe State Department
said in a statement that it was taking the report's findings seriously.Much
of the agency's certification work has apparently been done by outside contractors,
often unsupervised, and often performing duties that are supposed to be
done only by government employees.Neither contractors nor staffers apparently
maintain much documentation about their work, or even about how the contractors
are being paid under a $19 million contract that could swell to
$60 million in outlying years. As the report puts

many of them elected with tea party support, objected to any attempt
to improve the current law rather than scuttle it.With the rank and
file growing more conservative, some Republicans acknowledge that without
changes, they likely couldn't pass the alternative measure they backed when
Democrats won approval for Obama's bill in 2010. Among other provisions,
it encouraged employers to sign up their workers for health insurance automatically,
so that employees would have to "opt out" of coverage if they
didn't want it, and provided federal money for state-run high-risk pools
for individuals and for reinsurance in the small group market.The current
state of intentions contrasts sharply with the Pledge to America, the manifesto
that Republicans campaigned on in 2010 when they took power away from
the Democrats. That included a plan to "repeal and replace" what it
termed a government takeover of health care.It promised "common-sense solutions
focused on lowering costs and protecting American jobs," including steps
to overhaul medical malpractice laws and permit the sale of insurance across
state lines. Republicans said they would "empower small businesses with
greater purchasing power and create new incentives to save for future health
care needs." They promised to "protect the doctor-patient relationship,
and ensure that those with pre-existing conditions gain access to the coverage
they need."But Rep. Paul
