The Senate Appropriations Committee rejected an amendment that would give the Office of Personnel Management an extra $37 million to make IT upgrades sooner rather than later. Senate Appropriations Committee Vice Chairwoman Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) offered the amendment. She said OPM needs to fix its IT infrastructure immediately and described the amendment as "emergency funding". Zal Azmi is president and chief operating officer for IMTAS Technologies and former chief information officer at the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He tells In Depth with Francis Rose that agencies need to rethink cybersecurity entirely.
