Semiannual Report to the Congress, April 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025

Message from the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Inspector General

I am pleased to present this Semiannual Report to the Congress, covering the oversight activities of the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the U.S. Department of State (Department) and the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) from April 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025. OIG is responsible for the oversight of more than $89 billion in Department and USAGM programs and operations. We also provide oversight for the International Boundary and Water Commission, United States and Mexico, U.S. Section (USIBWC), a federal agency operating under the foreign policy guidance of the Department. 

In March, the Department began to consolidate selected functions of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) within the Department. OIG has prioritized our new oversight responsibilities stemming from this reorganization, and related projects completed during this reporting period are summarized herein. We also continue to prioritize top management and performance challenges facing the Department and USAGM, outlined in the annual Inspector General Statement on the Department of State's Major Management and Performance Challenges and the Inspector General Statement on theU.S. Agency for Global Media's Major Management and Performance Challenges.

During this reporting period, we identified approximately $26 million in monetary benefits, including $189,000 in questioned costs, $4.3 million in funds put to better use, and $22 million in investigative monetary results. The Department made a management decision on approximately $233 million in potential monetary benefits identified by OIG during the current and prior reporting periods. OIG issued 44 reports to improve the programs and  operations of the agencies we oversee and closed 399 recommendations associated with 112 reports; 38 recommendations were significant and demonstrated implementation of  crucial corrective actions by the Department, USAGM, and USIBWC.

I am honored to lead our mission-driven workforce dedicated to delivering meaningful  results to the American people. I am grateful to them and to the Department, USAGM, USIBWC, and Congress for their support of our efforts.

War Department Enacts New Cybersecurity Program to Safeguard Service Member Data

U.S. War Department: News
War Department Enacts New Cybersecurity Program to Safeguard Service Member Data
Jan. 15, 2026 |  By Air Force Tech. Sgt. Javier Cruz, Permanent Change of Station Joint Task Force

The War Department began implementing the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification, a landmark cybersecurity program, in November 2025 to better protect sensitive information across the U.S. defense industrial base. 

CMMC establishes a mandatory framework to ensure that thousands of companies contracting with DOW have verified cybersecurity measures in place to protect the department's data they handle. 

The program is especially critical for protecting the personally identifiable information of service members and their families, particularly during the permanent change of station process. 

What is CMMC and Why is it Important for PCS? 

The CMMC program functions as a verification mechanism, ensuring DOW contractors meet the department's cybersecurity standards. The CMMC program will require that a contractor's leaders provide an assessment of their company's compliance for CMMC levels 1 and 2. 

This verification mechanism directly impacts the security of military families' personally identifiable information. The PCS process, a regular part of military life, requires service members to share vast amounts of PII, including names, Social Security numbers, birthdates, telephone numbers and financial details, with numerous third-party contractors that manage moving, travel and housing. Without robust security measures in place, this sensitive data is a prime target for cybercriminals and foreign intelligence entities, potentially leading to identity theft and financial fraud. 

"The CMMC program provides increased assurance to the DOW that a defense contractor can adequately protect sensitive unclassified information at a level commensurate with the risk," the department states in the rule. By mandating CMMC, the DOW ensures that any company involved in the PCS process must maintain a certified level of cybersecurity, directly protecting service members' personal data from compromise. 

How the CMMC Program Works 

  • The CMMC framework is designed to be scalable, matching the level of certification required to the sensitivity of the information being handled. 
  • Tiered levels: The program has multiple levels. A contractor handling basic federal contract information will need to comply with CMMC Level 1, which can be accomplished through a self-assessment, or CMMC Level 2, which can be achieved through a self-assessment or through a certified third-party organization or the DOW's Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assessment Center once every three years. 
  • Verification and reporting: Contractors must report their CMMC status in the government's Supplier Performance Risk System. DOW contracting officers will verify a bidder's or contractor's CMMC status before awarding any new contracts or exercising options on existing ones. Contractors must also make an annual affirmation of their continued compliance. 
  • Phased implementation: The DOW will phase in the CMMC requirements over a three-year period to minimize the financial impact and disruption to the defense industrial base, particularly for small businesses. Following this period, the CMMC requirements will apply to all applicable DOW contracts. As part of the CMMC program implementation, all federal contractors remain subject to a DOW audit to ensure compliance. 

Phased implementation of the CMMC program represents a significant step forward in securing the defense industrial base. 

For service members and their families, it provides much-needed peace of mind, knowing their personally identifiable information is protected by a more resilient and cyber-aware network of defense contractors.

Sanções dos EUA em apoio ao povo corajoso do Irã

Department of State United States of America

Tradução cortesia do Departamento de Estado dos Estados Unidos
Sanções dos EUA em apoio ao povo corajoso do Irã

COMUNICADO DE IMPRENSA

THOMAS "TOMMY" PIGOTT, PRIMEIRO PORTA-VOZ ADJUNTO

Enquanto o corajoso povo do Irã continua a lutar por seus direitos básicos, o regime iraniano tem reagido com violência e repressão cruel contra seu próprio povo.

Em resposta, os Estados Unidos estão designando a notória Prisão de Fardis, uma instituição onde mulheres têm sido submetidas a tratamento cruel, desumano e degradante. 

Simultaneamente, o Departamento do Tesouro está impondo sanções a várias autoridades de segurança iranianas, incluindo Ali Larijani, secretário do Conselho Supremo de Segurança Nacional (SCNS). Além disso, o Tesouro está designando 18 indivíduos e entidades ligados às redes de "bancos paralelos" do Irã, que têm lavado recursos provenientes da venda de petróleo e produtos petroquímicos iranianos. Esta medida também dá continuidade à implementação do Memorando Presidencial de Segurança Nacional nº 2 de 2025. 

Os Estados Unidos apoiam o povo iraniano, que protesta por seus direitos naturais. O regime continua a financiar atividades desestabilizadoras e malignas em todo o mundo, em vez de investir no bem-estar de seu próprio povo no país. Continuaremos a negar ao regime o acesso às redes financeiras e ao sistema bancário global enquanto ele continuar a oprimir o povo iraniano.

As medidas anunciadas hoje estão sendo adotadas de acordo com o decreto do Executivo 13553, que autoriza sanções contra determinadas pessoas em relação a graves violações de direitos humanos pelo governo do Irã; o decreto do Executivo 13876, que autoriza sanções contra o líder supremo do Irã e seus associados; o decreto do Executivo 13902, que tem como alvo os setores financeiro, petrolífero e petroquímico do Irã; e a Lei de Enfrentamento a Adversários dos Estados Unidos por Meio de Sanções. Para mais informações, consulte o comunicado de imprensa (em inglês) do Tesouro.
