SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of 

this meeting is given under the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. 

Appendix (Pub. L. 92–463). The NSTAC 

advises the President on matters related 

to National Security and Emergency 

Preparedness (NS/EP) 

telecommunications and cybersecurity 

policy. 

Agenda: The committee will meet in 

an open session on October 11, 2017, 

receive remarks from Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) leadership 

and other senior Government officials 

regarding the Government’s current 

cybersecurity initiatives and NS/EP 

priorities. The meeting will include a 

keynote address and a panel discussion 

on a cybersecurity moonshot, which 

looks at identifying new processes to 

address cybersecurity challenges. 

NSTAC members will also deliberate 

and vote on the Committee’s NSTAC 

Report to the President on Internet and 

Communications Resilience which 

addresses ways in which the private 

sector and Government, together, can 

improve the resilience of the Internet 

and communications ecosystem (e.g., 

botnets). 

The committee will also meet in a 

closed session to receive a classified 

briefing regarding cybersecurity threats 

and discuss future studies based on the 

Government’s NS/EP priorities and 

perceived vulnerabilities. 

Basis for Closure: In accordance with 

5 U.S.C. 552b(c), The Government in the 

Sunshine Act, it has been determined 

that two agenda items require closure, 

as the disclosure of the information 

discussed would not be in the public 

interest. The first of these agenda items, 

the classified briefing, will provide 

members with a cybersecurity threat 

briefing on vulnerabilities related to the 

communications infrastructure. 

Disclosure of these threats would 

provide criminals who seek to 

compromise commercial and 

Government networks with information 

on potential vulnerabilities and 

mitigation techniques, weakening the 

Nation’s cybersecurity posture. This 

briefing will be classified at the top 

secret level, thereby exempting 

disclosure of the content by statute. 

Therefore, this portion of the meeting is 


sradovich on DSKBBY8HB2PROD with NOTICES
43556 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 179 / Monday, September 18, 2017 / Notices 

required to be closed pursuant to 5 

U.S.C. 552b(c)(1)(A) & (B) The second 

agenda item, a discussion of potential 

NSTAC study topics, will address areas 

of critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities 

and priorities for Government. 

Government officials will share data 

with NSTAC members on initiatives, 

assessments, and future security 

requirements across public and private 

sector networks. The information will 

include specific vulnerabilities within 

cyberspace that affect the United States’ 

information and communication 

technology infrastructures and proposed 

mitigation strategies. Disclosure of this 

information to the public would provide 

criminals with an incentive to focus on 

these vulnerabilities to increase attacks 

on the Nation’s critical infrastructure 

and communications networks. As 

disclosure of this portion of the meeting 

is likely to significantly frustrate 

implementation of proposed DHS 

actions, it is required to be closed 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B). 

Helen Jackson, 

Designated Federal Officer for the NSTAC.

[Docket No. DHS–2017–0038] 

Privacy Act of 1974; System of 

Records 

AGENCY: Department of Homeland 

Security, Privacy Office. 

ACTION: Notice of Modified Privacy Act 

System of Records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to 

modify a current DHS system of records 

titled, ‘‘Department of Homeland 

Security/U.S. Citizenship and 

Immigration Services, U.S. Immigration 

and Customs Enforcement, U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection—001 

Alien File, Index, and National File 

Tracking System of Records.’’ This 

system of records contains information 

regarding transactions involving an 

individual as he or she passes through 

the U.S. immigration process, some of 

which may also be covered by separate 

Systems of Records Notices. DHS 

primarily maintains information relating 

to the adjudication of benefits, 

investigation of immigration violations, 

and enforcement actions in Alien Files 

(A-Files). Alien Files became the official 

file for all immigration records created 

or consolidated since April 1, 1944. 

Before A-Files, many individuals had 

more than one file with the agency. To 

streamline immigration recordkeeping, 

legacy Immigration and Naturalization 

Service issued each individual an Alien 

Number, allowing the agency to create 

a single file for each individual 

containing that individual’s official 

immigration record. DHS also uses other 

immigration files to support 

administrative, fiscal, and legal needs. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

October 18, 2017. This modified system 

will be effective upon publication. New 

or modified routine uses will become 

effective October 18, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by docket number DHS– 

2017–0038 by one of the following 

methods: 

• Federal e-Rulemaking Portal: http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments. 

• Fax: 202–343–4010. 

• Mail: Jonathan R. Cantor, Acting 

Chief Privacy Officer, Privacy Office, 

Department of Homeland Security, 

Washington, DC 20528–0655. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

general questions, please contact: 

Donald K. Hawkins, (202) 272–8000, 

Privacy Officer, U.S. Citizenship and 

Immigration Services, 20 Massachusetts 

Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20529.

Jonathan R. Cantor, (202) 343–1717, 

Acting Chief Privacy Officer, Privacy 

Office, Department of Homeland 

Security, Washington, DC 20528–0655. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As DHS 

moves to conducting more immigration 

actions in an electronic environment 

and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration 

Services (USCIS) adjudicates more 

immigration benefits and requests for 

action in its USCIS Electronic 

Immigration System, DHS no longer 

considers the paper A-File as the sole 

repository and official record of 

information related to an individual’s 

official immigration record. An 

individual’s immigration history may be 

in the following materials and formats: 

(1) A paper A-File; (2) an electronic 

record in the Enterprise Document 

Management System or USCIS 

Electronic Immigration System; or (3) a 

combination of paper and electronic 

records and supporting documentation. 

The Department of Homeland 

Security, therefore, is updating the 

‘‘Department of Homeland Security/U.S. 

Citizenship and Immigration Services, 

U.S. Immigration and Customs 

Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection–001 Alien File, Index, and 

National File Tracking System of 

Records notice to: (1) Redefine which 

records constitute the official record of 

an individual’s immigration history to 

include the following materials and 

formats: (a) The paper A-File, (b) an 

electronic record in the Enterprise 

Document Management System or U.S. 

Citizenship and Immigration Services 

Electronic Immigration System, or (c) a
