DoD automated systems security and 

access policies. DoD policies require the 

use of controls to minimize the risk of 

compromise of personally identifiable 

information (PII) in paper and electronic 

form and to enforce access by those with 

a need to know and with appropriate 

clearances. Additionally, the DoD has 

established security audit and 

accountability policies and procedures 

which support the safeguarding of PII 

and detection of potential PII incidents.

such as the following to information 

systems and paper recordkeeping 

systems: Multifactor log-in 

authentication including Common 

Access Card (CAC) authentication and 

password; physical token as required; 

physical and technological access 

controls governing access to data; 

network encryption to protect data 

transmitted over the network; disk 

encryption securing disks storing data; 

key management services to safeguard 

encryption keys; masking of sensitive 

data as practicable; mandatory 

information assurance and privacy 

training for individuals who will have 

access; identification, marking, and 

safeguarding of PII; physical access 

safeguards including multifactor 

identification physical access controls, 

detection and electronic alert systems 

for access to servers and other network 

infrastructure; and electronic intrusion 

detection systems in DoD facilities.

system of records must have the ability 

to protect this information from being 

accessed or accessible by others without 

a need to know. This may involve 

providing custodians with access to
