U.S. Secret Service Data Breach (2016)

A 2015 OIG investigation found that 45 employees got into Chaffetz's 2003 Secret Service job application. Only four had a legitimate need, leaving the rest in violation of the Privacy Act and agency policies. The file snooping began minutes after Chaffetz, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, opened a hearing into allegations of agents' misconduct.
