routine uses:
1. Furnish data to the Department of Treasury for financial
reimbursement of individual expenses, such as travel, books, and other
miscellaneous items.
2. Furnish data to the Department of Treasury for which an
individual is reimbursing the Agency (for example, repayment of an
unused travel advance).
In addition, information may be disclosed under the following NASA
Standard Routine Uses:
1. Law Enforcement--When a record on its face, or in conjunction
with other information, indicates a violation or potential violation of
law, whether civil, criminal or regulatory in nature, and whether
arising by general statute or particular program statute, or by
regulation, rule, or order, disclosure may be made to the appropriate
agency, whether Federal, foreign, State, local, or tribal, or other
public authority responsible for enforcing, investigating or
prosecuting such violation or charged with enforcing or implementing
the statute, or rule, regulation, or order, if NASA determines by
careful review that the records or information are both relevant and
necessary to any enforcement, regulatory, investigative or prosecutive
responsibility of the receiving entity.
2. Certain Disclosures to Other Agencies--A record from this SOR
may be disclosed to a Federal, State, or local agency maintaining
civil, criminal, or other relevant enforcement information or other
pertinent information, such as current licenses, if necessary, to
obtain information relevant to an NASA decision concerning the hiring
or retention of an employee, the issuance of a security clearance, the
letting of a contract, or the issuance of a license, grant, or other
benefit.
3. Certain Disclosures to Other Federal Agencies--A record from

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDS:
Electronic records are maintained on secure NASA servers and
protected in accordance with all Federal standards and those
established in NASA regulations at 14 CFR 1212.605. Additionally,
server and data management environments employ infrastructure
encryption technologies both in data transmission and at rest on
servers. Electronic messages sent within and outside of the Agency that
convey sensitive data are encrypted and transmitted by staff via pre-
approved electronic encryption systems as required by NASA policy.
Approved security plans are in place for information systems containing
the records in accordance with the Federal Information Security
Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) and OMB Circular A-130, Management of
Federal Information Resources. Only authorized personnel requiring
information in the official discharge of their duties are authorized
access to records through approved access or authentication methods.
Access to electronic records is achieved only from workstations within
the NASA Intranet or via a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN)
connection that requires two-factor hardware token authentication or
via employee PIV badge authentication from NASA-issued computers. Non-
electronic records are secured in locked rooms or locked file cabinets.
