Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) is a category of classified information in the United States that requires additional handling and protection due to its sensitivity and the potential risk to national security if disclosed. Access to SCI is restricted to individuals with specific security clearances and a need-to-know basis.
Establishes minimum security requirements for systems processing sensitive compartmented information (SCI), requires layering of approaches for IA and management of interconnected systems to minimize risk, and establishes mission assurance categories to reflect the importance of information relative to DoD goals. DOES NOT mandate identification and inclusion of IA requirements for information systems in accordance with OMB Circular A-130.
The security level known as TS SCI is fully known as top secret sensitive compartmented information. Typically this means that the information is tightly controlled and the number of people with access is very limited.
TS-SCI clearance is a grade of Security Code clearance in the US Department of Defense. TS-SCI is an abbreviation (acronyms are different) that stands for Top Secret - Sensitive Compartmented Information.

There are three levels of classification used for US classified information: Confidential, Secret, and Top Secret. Additional access controls may be applied within these levels, such as Special Access Programs (SAP) or Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI).
Information Officers typically deal with the processing and application of vital internal information and data. They carefully collect sensitive information concerning the company.
A Top Secret (TS) security clearance with Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) access typically lasts for five years. However, the clearance must be re-investigated every five years to ensure the individual still meets the eligibility criteria for access to classified information.
"SCIF clearance" refers to having the necessary security clearance and "need-to-know" to be present in a SCIF without it being "sanitized" prior to entry and without escort. SCIF is an acronym used by the US military to refer to a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility. Typically access to such a facility requires a TS/SCI (top-secret special compartmented information) clearance specifically for the SCI (Sensitive Comparmented Information) being processed within the facility. SCI is not a "classification" so it is actually possible for information to be SCI but classified at the Secret or even Confidential level, although this is much less common than for Top-Secret information. SCI is based on the principle of "need-to-know" rather than the degree of damage that would occur if the information was disclosed (which is how Confidential, Secret, and Top-Secret classifications are assigned).
The Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) control system designed to protect human intelligence is known as the Human Intelligence (HUMINT) control system. This system emphasizes safeguarding the sources and methods used in collecting human intelligence to prevent disclosure that could compromise operations or personnel. It involves strict access controls and compartmentalization to ensure that sensitive information is only shared with authorized individuals. Additionally, training and protocols are established to mitigate risks associated with HUMINT operations.
Posting sensitive information on public social media platforms.
A stipulated protective order is a legal document agreed upon by parties involved in a legal case to protect certain sensitive information from being disclosed to others not involved in the case. It establishes guidelines on how the information can be used, shared, and stored during the legal proceedings.
