WASHINGTON: Verizon Business Network Services, a unit of the telecom giant, agreed to pay US$4.1 million to resolve US allegations that it failed to follow required cybersecurity standards, the US Justice Department said.
The settlement resolves allegations that a Verizon service which provides federal agencies with secure internet connections and other external networks did not completely satisfy three required cybersecurity controls in contracts from 2017 to 2021. "When government contractors fail to follow required cybersecurity standards, they may jeopardize the security of sensitive government information and information systems," Deputy Assistant Attorney General Michael Granston said in a statement.
Verizon said that in 2020 it"proactively identified and disclosed" to the General Services Administration a potential issue with a managed security service that it sells to some federal government agencies. It added that at no time did the potential issue result in a security or data breach.
