Complaints alleged the relatively new CESER misspent $11.7 million, though the inspector general could only substantiate some of those claims.
A special cybersecurity office established a few years ago within the Energy Department had some suspicious spending habits, most of which seemed to be resolved after a change in leadership, according to complaints investigated by the agency inspector general.
The Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security and Emergency Response, or CESER, was created in 2018 to help protect the nation’s energy infrastructure from emerging threats, chiefly those coming from cyberspace and other digital means. The IG report notes Congress has given CESER $276 million to date $120 million in fiscal 2019 and $156 million in 2020 and the office has requested $185 million in 2021.
