IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 
Mr. ISRAEL submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the 
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform 
RESOLUTION 
Urging that the policy of the United States should be that 
Government institutions use security measures known 
as cryptographic splitting, the strongest available form 
of data centric security, to secure sensitive and personal 
information for data at rest and data in motion. 
Whereas public and private institutions and the critical infra-
structure that are the backbone of our national and eco-
nomic security are under constant attack; 
Whereas sensitive information housed within key institutions 
is being accessed, stolen, and runs the risk of being ma-
nipulated, critical systems are vulnerable, and national 
security and corporate secrets are at risk;

Whereas information and infrastructure are most vulnerable 
when held by an institution or when traveling from point 
to point; 
Whereas network centric security is not sufficient to prevent 
a data breach, exfiltration, or manipulation of informa-
tion; and 
Whereas what is needed in order to properly protect sensitive 
information is the strongest available form of data centric 
security: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the policy of the United States should 
be that Government institutions use security measures 
known as cryptographic splitting, the strongest available 
form of data centric security, to secure sensitive and per-
sonal information for data at rest and data in motion.
