Cybersecurity
Guided by OPM’s values of transparency, accountability, collaboration, and responsible stewardship, our cybersecurity strategy emphasizes proactive risk management and secure-by-design principles.
Cybersecurity and privacy are vital to OPM, requiring resilient protections to manage growing risks to the data we create, collect, use, store, and transmit.
In today’s digital-first world, cyber resilience is no longer optional, it’s mission critical. Guided by OPM’s values of transparency, accountability, collaboration, and responsible stewardship, our cybersecurity strategy emphasizes proactive risk management and secure-by-design principles. We will operationalize “Embrace Measured Risk” by balancing innovation with robust safeguards, ensuring new technologies like AI are adopted securely and responsibly. By embedding security into every process, from hiring systems to retirement services, we will deliver the Director’s goals of attracting top talent, delivering efficient, high-quality service, and leading in the adoption of AI-ready workforce solutions. In this way, cybersecurity becomes not only a shield against threats but also a trusted enabler of OPM’s strategic priorities and near-term goals. Cybersecurity at OPM will not only protect our mission but also act as a catalyst for modernization, instilling confidence that our technological investments enable safe, innovative, and mission-driven outcomes.
