Overview

• The General Services Administration improperly shared a Google Drive folder containing sensitive documents with over 11,200 employees across multiple years.
• The exposed files included White House East and West Wing floor plans, blast-door designs, and vendor banking information, with nine of the 15 files marked as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
• The issue began in early 2021 under the Biden administration and persisted into the Trump administration, with the latest improper share occurring just last week.
• The GSA’s Office of Inspector General uncovered the breach during a recent security audit, prompting the agency’s IT team to revoke access and initiate an investigation.
• It remains unclear if any of the documents were classified at the national security level, and neither the White House nor the GSA has publicly addressed the incident.
