Any device which contains data not approved for public release and is portable is subject to the DoD "Data at Rest" policy. The stored data must be encrypted on:
Laptop computers
Notebooks
Cell phones
BlackBerrys, Treos, Palm Pilots, smart phones and other functionally similar devices
PDAs
External hard drives
CDs
DVDs
Floppy Disks (yeah - some people still use them)
Thumb drives
Flash cards
Any other removable media
For more details, Google the phrase "DoD data at rest" and check out some of the links to find the memo that details the requirements. I'd post the address of some good sites, but that would get this post flagged.

Which is an appropriate way to handle removable media and the information stored in it Encrypt only sensitive and unclassified information not cleared for public release True or False?
The requirement is to at LEAST encrypt all sensitive and unclassified information not cleared for public release that is stored on removable and mobile computing devices. That may very well mean that the entire media must be encrypted, but there are acceptable solutions that only a portion of the storage media - as an encrypted file or encrypted partition. It is important to select a truly effective encryption solution however. If the keys to decrypt the information are stored on the same device, it isn't going to provide much protection. Likewise, if it is easy to break the encryption it isn't going to help much. If temporary files store the information in unencrypted form, then again it isn't really protected. Once encrypted, the decryption key(s) need to be protected and maintained such that an authorized user can still access the data. If you lose the key and have no backup, you have just caused a self-initiated Denial-of-Service.
