## Report
- **Title:** Remote Application and Desktop Virtualization Client
- **Submitting OIG:** Tennessee Valley Authority OIG
- **Component agency:** Tennessee Valley Authority
- **Type:** Audit
- **Publication date:** 2023-06-21

## Summary

The Office of the Inspector General audited the Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA) use of remote application and desktop virtualization client due to the risks of (1) potential system intrusion through misconfigurations and (2) continued elevated remote users during the COVID-19 pandemic. We found the configuration management control for TVA’s remote application desktop virtualization client was ineffective. However, we determined compensating access controls were in place to mitigate the risk to an overall acceptable level.


## Recommendations

- **Rec 1** (Closed): We recommend the Vice President and Chief Information and Digital Officer, Technology and Information, design and implement a documented configuration management process of TVA’s remote application and desktop virtualization client.
