1. DEFINITION. Controlled Unclassified Information is defined as unclassified information meeting standards for safeguarding and dissemination controls pursuant to law, regulations, and government-wide policies under Executive Order 13556, which establishes a uniform program for designation of information meeting the standards for CUI, uses standardized marking, and ensures information is only controlled when needed.

2. CATEGORIES OF CUI. CUI consists of the following;

For Official Use Only (FOUO) information;

Privacy Act Information (See PII attachment);

Department of State Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) information;

Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Energy (DoE) Unclassified Controlled Nuclear Information (UCNI);

3. GENERAL GUIDANCE: Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) such as FOUO, Security Classification Guides (SCG), and other information with Distribution Statements B thru F, are not authorized for public release and cannot be placed on a publicly accessible web site or web server.

a. All contractors supporting an NSWCDD contract will comply with the crawl, walk, run CUI implementation stages as determined by DUSN (I&S). NSWCDD is currently in the crawl stage.

At the moment the ONLY required marking on what was traditionally FOUO is to mark the TOP and BOTTOM of the documents as “CUI”.

Unclassified//FOUO is now CUI. Headers and Footers are considered the very top and bottom.

During the crawl stage paragraph or portion markings are optional. For example: (U//FOUO) is now (CUI).

Emails containing CUI will be marked with CUI in the subject line “(CUI)” followed by the subject and CUI banner lines at the top and bottom of the email. Subject: FOUO-Privacy Sensitive is now (CUI) followed by subject.

Information systems, databases and websites shall start the transition to remark their banner lines from legacy marking to CUI markings during the crawl phase. i.e. https://wwwdd.csd.disa.mil/ homepage currently marked Unclassified//FOUO shall now be marked CUI.

b. Distribution statements for classified documents will be determined by the Security Classification Guide used to mark the document.

b. All technical data provided to the contractor by the government will be protected from public disclosure in accordance with the markings contained therein.

d. Any material produced under the terms of this contract will be classified directly from the source document(s) from which it was obtained. It will be marked with the most restrictive downgrading/declassification statement contained in such documents.

4. TRANSMITTAL. All emails containing such information or attachments must be appropriately marked, and digitally signed and encrypted if being transmitted within Navy networks, or outside a Navy network to an approved contractor email address. All transmissions to personal email accounts (AOL, Yahoo, Hotmail, Comcast, etc.) are prohibited.

5. OFFSITE HANDLING. The contractor shall provide adequate physical protection to such information as to preclude access by any person or entity not authorized such access by the government.
