Audit of U.S. Embassy Kyiv, Ukraine, Records Retention for Electronic Messaging

Excerpt:  “Embassy Kyiv did not implement adequate measures to preserve federal records created using eMessaging platforms. Although Embassy Kyiv distributed a Management Notice in April 2024 reminding staff of federal records retention requirements, it did not institute additional measures to ensure staff preserved records created or received using eMessaging applications. OIG also found that many Embassy Kyiv personnel reported using the eMessaging platform Signal to conduct official Department business but did not consistently preserve correspondence in accordance with federal requirements.”
