CPP: FBI audit of Asheville Police Department’s IT security released

Here’s an excerpt of the article from Carolina Public Press:

While finding the Asheville Police Department in compliance with most of the criteria for participating in a national criminal-information network, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, in a newly published review, documented shortcomings in the APD’s online data security involving key elements of the program.

The FBI’s audit of APD’s information technology systems was conducted in May 2013 and published last week by Cryptome, an online library of once-secret materials that is run by anti-secrecy activists.
