HUD will collect system logs with personal data
HUD will collect centralized security logs that can include device identifiers, full names, email addresses, geolocation information, phone numbers, user IDs, and web URLs. The system covers federal employees, contractors, detail personnel, other personnel who access HUD systems, and individuals (including vendors, partners, or members of the public) whose accounts, credentials, or devices interact with HUD networks, applications, or services.
Records stored securely in FedRAMP cloud
HUD will store Sumo Logic records in a FedRAMP-authorized cloud environment with encryption at rest and in transit and claims compliance with FISMA, NIST, and FIPS controls. Access requires HUD credentials and role-based privileges including HSPD-12 ID, connection to HUD's LAN, a User ID, Password, and PIN.
HUD may share records with many external parties
HUD may disclose Sumo Logic records to contractors, grantees, consultants, other Federal agencies, State and local governments, law enforcement, courts, or multilateral organizations for research, program support, litigation, enforcement, or breach response. Disclosures may be made when HUD suspects or confirms a breach or when necessary to respond to or prevent harm.
Records retention limited to 30 months
HUD will manage Sumo Logic records under General Records Schedule (GRS) 3.2 and states the records are temporary and can be destroyed when 30 months old, although longer retention is authorized for business use (Disposition Authority: DAA-GRS 2022-0005-0002).
You can request and contest records
Individuals may request to determine whether the system contains their records by written inquiry to HUD and must provide full name, current address, telephone number, and either a notarized statement or an unsworn declaration under 24 CFR 16.4. Contesting and appeals follow HUD's procedures in 24 CFR part 16.8.
