Product description

CyberFeds is a web-based application that provides the Human Resource and Labor Relations team with decision-making by providing practical guidance to handle everyday federal work challenges and analysis of compliance obligations. This includes Merit System Protection Board decisions and analysis, Federal Labor Relations Authority decisions and analysis, arbitration awards, leave guidance, labor relations guidance, and disciplinary and adverse action guidance. Specialists use the information to guide employee action decisions using previous case information.

How we use cyberFeds at VA

CyberFEDS is used to research issues involving EEO complaints, workers’ compensation claims, reasonable accommodation, employee discipline, adverse action cases, and labor relations matters. The information is used for risk mitigation to minimize potential damages. Arbitration information is also used for arbitration panel selection. CyberFEDs web subscription will provide Human Resources (HR) employee relations and labor relations managers and staff an instant searchable federal civil service law database.

No VA Data

For SaaS products that do not contain VA-owned data*, there is now an expedited process that does not require a traditional VA authority to operate (ATO). Criteria include the following:

  • User owns a device (even if VA paid for the purchase of the device) such as a CPAP or glucometer that uses a SaaS product to share patient data (non-VA data*).
  • SaaS product has no direct connections or interfaces to VA systems or network.
  • Users consent to share their data (which may include PII and PHI) directly with the SaaS provider.
  • SaaS providers must have published terms and conditions for user consent.
  • VA providers access data in a view-only mode or with limited functionality per the user’s consent.

*According to Circular a130, anything that VA creates, collects, processes, maintains, disseminates, or disposes of by or for the federal government is considered federal information (VA data).

VA providers may not enter any VA information into this product; it must adhere to no VA data standards mentioned above.
