Sensitive Documents Improperly Shared with Thousands

The documents included White House floor plans

Government officials under both Presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump improperly shared sensitive documents with thousands of federal workers, including potentially classified floor plans of the White House, according to internal records reviewed by The Washington Post.

Career employees at the General Services Administration (GSA), which provides administrative and technological support for much of the federal bureaucracy and manages the government's real estate portfolio, were responsible for the oversharing, which spurred a cybersecurity incident report and investigation last week. The records show that the employees inadvertently shared a Google Drive folder containing the sensitive documents with the entire GSA staff, which totals more than 11,200 people, according to the agency's online directory.

The information shared also included the details of a proposed blast door for the White House visitor center, the records show, as well as bank account information for a vendor who assisted with a Trump administration news conference.
