Privacy Act of 1974; New System of 

Records 

AGENCY: Export Import Bank of the 

United States.

records.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The new 

system of records described in this 

notice, EXIM AgilQuest, will store 

certain information of current 

employees and contractors of the Bank 

to support a hybrid (onsite & telework) 

working environment. The report of a 

new system of records has been 

submitted to the Committee on 

Oversight and Government Reform of 

the House of Representatives, the 

Committee on Homeland Security and 

Governmental Affairs of the Senate, and 

the Office of Management and Budget, 

pursuant to OMB Circular A–108, 

‘‘Federal Agency Responsibilities for 

Review, Reporting, and Publication 

under the Privacy Act’’ (Dec. 2016) and 

the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(r). 

SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER: 

System Name: EXIM AgilQuest, 

System Number: N/A 

SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: 

Unclassified. 

SYSTEM LOCATION: 

This electronic system will be used 

via a web interface and mobile 

application by the Export Import Bank 

of the United States, 811 Vermont 

Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20571. 

The physical location and technical 

operation of the system is at the 

FedRAMP Authorized Amazon Web 

Services (AWS) cloud services facility at

SYSTEM MANAGER(S): 

Tomeka Wray, Vice President of 

Operations, EXIM Bank, 811 Vermont

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM: 

Export-Import Bank Act of 1945, as 

amended (12 U.S.C. 635 et seq.).1 5 

U.S.C. 301. 

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM: 

The purpose of this system of records 

is to facilitate the hybrid workforce 

environment by allowing EXIM 

employees and contractors to reserve 

agency workspaces such as 

‘‘Touchdown Spaces’’, ‘‘Collaboration 

Spaces/Meeting Rooms’’, and 

Information Technology (IT) assets. The 

system will provide employees with 

increased flexibility and access to 

workspaces while providing the agency 

with space utilization information to 

make data-driven decisions for facilities 

operations and capital planning. 

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE

SYSTEM: 

The EXIM AgilQuest system will 

contain information on EXIM current 

employees and contractors. 

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: 

The EXIM AgilQuest system will 

contain Personally Identifiable 

Information (PII) of EXIM current 

employees and contractors, necessary to 

obtain an account and reserve 

workspaces relevant to their division 

and job functions. Records maintained 

in this system may contain employee 

and contractor information including, 

but not limited to, name, agency email 

address, agency phone number, location 

(e.g., EXIM Headquarters or satellite 

location), and organization/division/ 

office of assignment. Individuals may 

voluntarily provide additional contact 

information through the EXIM 

AgilQuest online portal such as picture, 

preferred name, additional phone 

numbers, and EXIM work groups. 

RECORD SOURCE CATEGORIES: 

Information in this system is obtained 

using one of three methods: manual 

entry by an administrator user, direct 

database connection to supply the 

required information, and through 

employee or contractor entry of optional 

data to their individual profile. 

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

In addition to those disclosures that

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF

RECORDS: 

The records are stored digitally in 

encrypted format in the AgilQuest 

Amazon Web Services (AWS) FedRAMP 

authorized cloud environment. 

AgilQuest encrypts EXIM’s sensitive 

information (such as employee or 

contractor first name, last name, and 

email address) at rest and stores it in 

Amazon Relational Database Service 

(RDS) AWS databases. Data in transit is 

encrypted via TLS. AgilQuest also 

leverages AWS Key Management 

Service (KMS) to encrypt data and 

restrict access based on user roles and 

job functions. AgilQuest complies with 

EXIM policy which stipulates that 

sensitive data generated from AgilQuest 

must be stored on EXIM’s Microsoft 

OneDrive and SharePoint site that are 

managed and protected by EXIM’s 

Infrastructure General Support System 

administrative, technical, and physical 

controls. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF

RECORDS: 

Records may be retrieved by other 

users by using the employee’s name. 

Records may be retrieved by 

administrator/superusers by the 

following: first or preferred name, last 

name, email address, Location (e.g., 

Headquarters or satellite location), and 

user role. Information may additionally 

be retrieved by other personal 

identifiers by user account maintenance 

programs within the application. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND

DISPOSAL OF RECORDS: 

Records are archived/disposed of 

during the routine data sync for 

individuals who are no longer 

employees or contractors of EXIM. 

Otherwise, records are maintained and 

destroyed in accordance with the 

National Archives and Record 

Administration’s (‘‘NARA’’) Basic Laws 

and Authorities (44 U.S.C. 3301, et seq.) 

or an EXIM Bank records disposition 

schedule approved by NARA. 

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

Information will be stored in 

electronic format within the AgilQuest 

Cloud Service Provider (CSP) Amazon 

Web Service (AWS). EXIM AgilQuest 

has configurable, layered user accounts 

and permissions features to ensure users 

have only the proper access necessary to 

perform their duties. Access to EXIM 

AgilQuest is restricted to EXIM 

employees and contractors who need it 

for their job functions. Authorized users 

have access only to the data and 

functions required to perform their job 

functions. AgilQuest uses AWS Key 

Management Service (KMS), a managed 

service for AgilQuest to create and 

control the cryptographic keys that are 

used to protect EXIM data. AWS KMS 

uses hardware security modules (HSM) 

to protect and validate AWS KMS keys 

under the FIPS 140–2 Cryptographic 

Module Validation Program (https://

csrc.nist.gov/projects/cryptographicmodule-validation-program) to 

implement cryptography for data at rest. 

AWS KMS enables AgilQuest to 

maintain control over who can use 

AgilQuest AWS KMS keys and gain 

access to EXIM encrypted data. Keys 

distributions are only permitted on the 

AWS Console Layer. Lost or corrupted 

keys are managed by AWS KMS. EXIM 

AgilQuest which is hosted in AWS as a 

Software-as-a-Service application 

inherits all the administrative, 

technical, and physical controls offered 

by AWS and the EXIM Infrastructure 

General Support System. 

AgilQuest CSP, is compliant with the 

Federal Risk and Authorization 

Management Program (FedRAMP). The 

PII information in EXIM AgilQuest is 

encrypted and stored in AWS, and the 

Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure 

(HTTPS) protocol is used to access 

EXIM AgilQuest.
