of State determines that information from this system of records is
reasonably necessary to assist the recipient agency or entity in (1)
responding to a suspected or confirmed breach or (2) preventing,

agency or entity (including its information systems, programs, and

More specific information may be obtained by writing to the following
address: U.S. Department of State; Director, Office of Information
Programs and Services; A/GIS/IPS; 2201 C Street NW, Room B-266;
Washington, DC 20520.
ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
All Department of State network users are given cyber security
awareness training which covers the procedures for handling Sensitive
but Unclassified (SBU) information, including personally identifiable
information (PII). Annual refresher training is mandatory. In addition,
all Department OpenNet network users are required to take the Foreign
Service Institute distance learning course instructing employees on
privacy and security requirements, including the rules of behavior for
handling PII and the potential consequences if it is handled
improperly. Before being granted access to Integrated Logistics
Management Records, a user must first be granted access to the
Department of State computer network.
Department of State employees and contractors may remotely access
this system of records using non-Department owned information
technology. Such access is subject to approval by the Department's
mobile and remote access program and is limited to information
[[Page 3885]]
maintained in unclassified information systems. Remote access to the
Department's information systems is configured in compliance with OMB
Circular A-130 multifactor authentication requirements and includes a
time-out function.
All Department of State employees and contractors with authorized
access to records maintained in this system of records have undergone a
thorough background security investigation. Access to the Department of
State, its annexes, and posts abroad is controlled by security guards
and admission is limited to those individuals possessing a valid
identification card or individuals under proper escort. Access to
computerized files is password-protected and under the direct
supervision of the system manager. The system manager has the
capability of printing audit trails of access from the computer media,
thereby permitting regular and ad hoc monitoring of computer usage.
When it is determined that a user no longer needs access, the user
account is disabled.
The safeguards in the following paragraphs apply only to records
that are maintained in government-certified cloud systems. All cloud
systems that provide IT services and process Department of State
information must be specifically authorized by the Department of State
Authorizing Official and Senior Agency Official for Privacy.
Information that conforms with Department-specific definitions for
Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) low, moderate,
or high categorization are permissible for cloud usage and must
specifically be authorized by the Department's Cloud Program Management
Office and the Department of State Authorizing Official. Specific
security measures and safeguards will depend on the FISMA
categorization of the information in a given cloud system. In
accordance with Department policy, systems that process more sensitive
information will require more stringent controls and review by
Department cybersecurity experts prior to approval. Prior to operation,
all Cloud systems must comply with applicable security measures that
are outlined in FISMA, FedRAMP, OMB regulations, National Institute of
Standards and Technology's (NIST) Special Publications (SP) and Federal
Information Processing Standards (FIPS) and Department of State
policies and standards.
All data stored in cloud environments categorized above a low FISMA
impact risk level must be encrypted at rest and in-transit using a
federally-approved encryption mechanism. The encryption keys shall be
generated, maintained, and controlled in a Department data center by
the Department key management authority. Deviations from these
encryption requirements must be approved in writing by the Department
of State Authorizing Official. High FISMA impact risk level systems
will additionally be subject to continual auditing and monitoring,
multifactor authentication mechanism utilizing Public Key
Infrastructure (PKI) and NIST 800 53 controls concerning
virtualization, servers, storage and networking, as well as stringent
measures to sanitize data from the cloud service once the contract is
terminated.
