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.
Encrypt only Sensitive and Unclassified Information Not Cleared for Public Release
Encrypt only Sensitive and Unclassified Information Not Cleared for public release.
a. Encrypt only Sensitive and Unclassified Information Not Cleared for Public Release.
Examples that do not qualify as Sensitive but Unclassified (SBU) information include general public information, such as data available on government websites, press releases, or information that poses no risk to national security or privacy. Additionally, information that is already classified or is purely administrative in nature, like routine operational procedures not affecting security, also does not fall under SBU. Lastly, any information that has been explicitly designated as unclassified by relevant authorities is not considered SBU.
"Unclassified" typically refers to information or materials that have not been designated as sensitive or restricted by government or organizational standards. This means they are generally accessible to the public and do not require special clearance for access. Unclassified information can still be sensitive in nature, but it lacks the formal classification that would limit its distribution.
report the violation.
Unclassified data refers to information that has not been designated as sensitive or restricted and is generally available for public access. It typically does not require special handling or security measures, making it easier to share and disseminate. However, it is still important to manage unclassified data responsibly to prevent the inadvertent disclosure of sensitive information.
Army Regulation 380â??5, Department of the Army Information SecurityProgram provides this guidance. Sensitive But Unclassified and Limited Official Use Information is covered in Chapter 5, section 2.
Unclassified information requiring safeguarding and dissemination controls, pursuant to and consistent with applicable laws, regulations, and government-wide policies.
No, not all pages in JPAS are marked For Official Use Only (FOUO). FOUO is only used to designate sensitive but unclassified information that should not be disclosed to the public. Other designations like Unclassified or Classified are used for different levels of sensitive information in JPAS.

The Army Regulation (AR) that provides guidance for handling sensitive unclassified material is AR 380-5, titled "Army Information Security Program." This regulation outlines the policies and procedures for the protection of sensitive information, including unclassified material that requires safeguarding due to its potential impact on national security or other interests. It emphasizes the need for proper classification, marking, and handling to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure.
