1.12.2015 -The U.S. Office of Personnel Management confirmed that a web site glitch exposed some retirees’ personal information to other retirees Monday.
The information was exposed when retirees logged into their accounts, OPM said in a statement.
“This morning, OPM became aware of a technical malfunction impacting online services for federal retirees,” read the statement. “As a result, individuals logging into their personal accounts inadvertently may have had access to other retirees’ personal information.
“OPM has disabled the portal while we investigate the circumstances of the malfunction and will notify affected individuals if personal information is determined to have been compromised.”
OPM disables Web portal after retirees’ information potentially exposed
As of Tuesday morning, the Web portal appears to be functioning normally. No one accessed anyone else’s account, according to the OPM spokesperson. The agency is still investigating how some retirees could see others’ information.
OPM has yet to notify any retirees that their data was exposed, the spokesperson said.
