Procedural Safeguards—Protection 

for computerized records on the COGH 

Local Area Network (LAN) includes 

programmed verification of valid user 

identification code and password prior 

to logging on to the system, mandatory 

password changes, limited log-ins, virus 

protection, and user rights/file attribute 

restrictions. Password protection 

imposes user name and password log-in 

requirements to prevent unauthorized 

access. Each user name is assigned 

limited access rights to files and 

directories at varying levels to control 

file sharing. Users of individually 

identified data protect information from 

public scrutiny. CDC employees who 

maintain records are instructed to check 

with the system manager prior to 

making disclosures of data. 

Implementation Guidelines: The 

safeguards outlined above are in 

accordance with the HHS Information 

Security Program Policy and FIPS Pub 

200, ‘‘Minimum Security Requirements 

for Federal Information and Information 

Systems.’’ Data maintained on the COGH 

LAN is in compliance with OMB 

Circular A–130, Appendix III. Security 

is provided for information collection, 

processing, transmission, storage, and 

dissemination in general support 

systems and major applications. 

The records in this System are 

retained and disposed of in the 

following way: Records are retained and 

disposed of in accordance with the CDC

Against and responding to the Breach of 

Personally Identifiable Information: 

To appropriate Federal agencies and

B. Purpose 

The system is designed to process 

individual applications for the 

Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer 

program, and to assess a candidate’s 

suitability for a position in the program. 

II. Authority for Maintenance of the 

System 

Public Health Service Act, Section 

203, ‘‘Commissioned Corps’’ and Section 

207, ‘‘Appointment of Personnel’’ (42 

U.S.C. 204, 209). 

III. Proposed Routine Use Disclosures 

of Data in the System 

Disclosure may be made to a 

congressional office from the record of 

an individual in response to a verified 

inquiry from the congressional office 

made at the written request of that 

individual. 

The Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) may disclose 

information from this system of records 

to the Department of Justice, or to a 

court or other tribunal, when: (a) HHS, 

or any component thereof; or (b) any 

HHS employee in his or her official 

capacity; or (c) any HHS employee in 

his or her individual capacity where the 

Department of Justice (or HHS, where it 

is authorized to do so) has agreed to 

represent the employee; or (d) the 

United States or any agency thereof 

where HHS determines that the 

litigation is likely to affect HHS or any 

of its components, is a party to litigation 

or has an interest in such litigation, and 

HHS determines that the use of such 

records by the Department of Justice, the 

court or other tribunal is relevant and 

necessary to the litigation and would 

help in the effective representation of 

the governmental party, provided, 

however, that in each case, HHS 

determines that such disclosure is 

compatible with the purpose for which 

the records were collected. 

Records may be disclosed to 

appropriate federal agencies and 

Department contractors that have a need 

to know the information for the purpose 

of assisting the Department’s efforts to 

respond to a suspected or confirmed 

breach of the security or confidentiality 

of information disclosed is relevant and 

necessary for that assistance. 

IV. Effects of the Proposed System of 

Records on Individual Rights 

The first routine use permits an 

individual may learn if a record exists 

about himself or herself by contacting 

the system manager at the address 

above. Requesters in person must 

provide driver’s license or other positive 

identification. Individuals who do not 

appear in person must either: (1) submit 

a notarized request to verify their 

identity; or (2) certify that they are the 

individuals they claim to be and that 

they understand that the knowing and 

willful request for or acquisition of a 

record pertaining to an individual under 

false pretenses is a criminal offense 

under the Privacy Act subject to a 

$5,000 fine. 

Same as notification procedures. 

Requesters should also reasonably 

specify the record contents being 

sought. An accounting of disclosures 

that have been made of the record, if 

any, may be requested. 

V. Safeguards 

The records in this System are stored 

in the file folders, computer tapes/disks, 

and CD–ROMs. The records are 

retrieved by name. 

The records in this System have the 

following safeguards in place to 

maintain and protect the information as 

it relates to Authorized users, physical 

and procedural safeguards: 

Authorized users—Access is granted 

to only a limited number of physicians, 

scientists, statisticians, and designated 

support staff of the Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC), as 

authorized by the system manager to 

accomplish the stated purposes for 

which the data in this system have been 

collected. 

Physical Safeguards—Hardcopy 

records are kept in locked cabinets in 

locked rooms, security guard service in 

buildings, personnel screening of 

visitors, copies of files stored in a 

separate secure off-site location. 

Procedural Safeguards—The OWCD 

Local Area Network (LAN) uses security 

packages to control unauthorized access 

to the system. Attempts to gain access 

by unauthorized individuals are 

automatically recorded and reviewed on 

a daily basis. Protection for 

computerized records both on the 

mainframe and the OWCD LAN include 

programmed verification of valid user 

identification code and password prior 

to logging on to the system, mandatory 

password changes, limited log-ins, virus 

protection, and user rights/file attribute 

restrictions. Password protection 

imposes user name and password log-in 

requirements to prevent unauthorized 

access. Each user name is assigned 

limited access rights to files and 

directories at varying levels to control 

file sharing. There are routine daily 

backup procedures and secure off-site 

storage is available for backup tapes. 

CDC employees who maintain records 

are instructed to check with the system 

manager prior to making disclosures of 

data. 

Implementation Guidelines: The 

safeguards outlined above are in 

accordance with the HHS Information 

Security Program Policy and FIPS Pub 

200, ‘‘Minimum Security Requirements 

for Federal Information and Information 

Systems.’’ Data maintained on CDC’s 

Mainframe and the OWCD LAN are in 

compliance with OMB Circular A–130, 

Appendix III. Security is provided for 

information collection, processing, 

transmission, storage, and 

dissemination in general support 

systems and major applications.
