U.S. personnel chief Katherine Archuleta resigned Friday in the wake of massive data breach that allowed hackers to steal the records of more than 21 million people under her watch, Fox News confirmed. Archuleta submitted her resignation to President Obama Friday morning. Her resignation is effective at the close of business today. She will be replaced by Beth Cobert, who currently works in the White House budget office, White House sources told Fox News. "This is the absolute right call,” House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Jason Chaffetz said in a written statement following the announcement. “OPM needs a competent, technically savvy leader to manage the biggest cybersecurity crisis in this nation's history. The IG has been warning about security lapses at OPM for almost a decade. This should have been addressed much, much sooner but I appreciate the President doing what's best now.” Read more http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/07/10/opm-director-katherine-archuleta-resigns/
