Progress on the Implementation of Recommendations related to Strengthening Information and Systems Security Acrossthe Secretariat
The present report is submitted pursuant to paragraph 18 of part I of General Assembly resolution 67/254, in which the Assembly requested the Secretary-General to provide an update on the status of implementation of the actions taken to address information security issues in the context of the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2014-2015. An independent assessment and information security breaches that occurred in 2013 demonstrate significant shortcomings that expose the Organization to an unacceptable level of risk. The present report includes measures taken to guard against any threats of cyberattack and additional resource requirements in the amount of $3,440,700 before recosting, under section 29E, Office of Information and Communications Technology, of the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2014-2015, in order to address the most urgent information security needs of the Organization.
