Abstract

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Office of the Secretary of Defense is modifying and reissuing a current system of records titled, "Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database," DHRA 06. This system of records was originally established to centralize case- level sexual assault data involving a member of the Armed Forces, in a manner consistent with statute and DoD regulations for Unrestricted and Restricted reporting; and to facilitate reports to Congress on claims of retaliation in connection with an Unrestricted Report of sexual assault made by or against a member of the Armed Forces. Additional laws and policy changes require DSAID to include information on the claims of retaliation connected with Unrestricted Reports of sexual assault made by or against a member of the Armed Forces and Unrestricted Reports of adult sexual assault cases under the Family Advocacy Program (FAP). This system of records notice (SORN) is being updated to comply with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), provide the ability to collect sexual assault cases for the U.S. Space Force (USSF), and improve prevention. This SORN is also being updated to add three standard DoD routine uses (routine uses B, I, and J), and various other sections within the SORN to improve clarity or update information that has changed. Additionally, the DoD is issuing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, which proposes to exempt this system of records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act, elsewhere in today's issue of the Federal Register.

Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary of Defense, Department of Defense 
(DoD).

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Office of the 
Secretary of Defense is modifying and reissuing a current system of 
records titled, ``Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database,'' DHRA 06. 
This system of records was originally established to centralize case-
level sexual assault data involving a member of the Armed Forces, in a 
manner consistent with statute and DoD regulations for Unrestricted and 
Restricted reporting; and to facilitate reports to Congress on claims 
of retaliation in connection with an Unrestricted Report of sexual 
assault made by or against a member of the Armed Forces. Additional 
laws and policy changes require DSAID to include information on the 
claims of retaliation connected with Unrestricted Reports of sexual 
assault made by or against a member of the Armed Forces and 
Unrestricted Reports of adult sexual assault cases under the Family 
Advocacy Program (FAP). This system of records notice (SORN) is being 
updated to comply with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), 
provide the ability to collect sexual assault cases for the U.S. Space 
Force (USSF), and improve prevention. This SORN is also being updated 
to add three standard DoD routine uses (routine uses B, I, and J), and 
various other sections within the SORN to improve clarity or update 
information that has changed. Additionally, the DoD is issuing a Notice 
of Proposed Rulemaking, which proposes to exempt this system of records 
from certain provisions of the Privacy Act, elsewhere in today's issue 
of the Federal Register.

DATES: This system of records is effective upon publication; however, 
comments on the Routine Uses will be accepted on or before January 21, 
2025. The Routine Uses are effective at the close of the comment 
period.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by either of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database (DSAID) system of 
records is used to collect and maintain information regarding sexual 
assaults, and any associated retaliation allegations, involving a 
member of the Armed Forces. Section 563 of the Duncan Hunter NDAA for 
Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 (Pub. L. 110-417) requires the DSAID for the 
purpose of collecting and maintaining information regarding sexual 
assaults involving a member of the Armed Forces. Additional laws and 
policy changes require DSAID to include information on the claims of 
retaliation connected with Unrestricted Reports of sexual assault made 
by or against a member of the Armed Forces and Unrestricted Reports of 
adult sexual assault cases under the FAP. As mandated, this Department-
wide database includes sexual assault-related data about the victim, 
the (alleged) offender, and the outcome of any investigation and legal 
proceedings connected with the assault, or associated retaliation 
allegation. This SORN is being updated to comply with section 538 of 
the FY18 NDAA (Pub. L. 115-191) and provide the ability to collect 
sexual assault cases for the USSF. This SORN is also being updated to 
add three additional standard DoD routine uses, and various other 
sections of the SORN.
    Subject to public comment, the Office of the Secretary of Defense 
proposes to update this system of records to add DoD standard routine 
uses B, I, and J. Modifications are also being made to the following 
sections of the SORN: (1) to the System Location to add information 
about cloud storage; (2) to the Authority for Maintenance of the System 
section to add additional authorities; (3) to the Purpose of the System 
section to expand on the uses of the information; (4) to the Categories 
of Records in the System section to clarify the different record types; 
(5) to the Record Source Categories to add additional source 
information; (6) to the Policies and Practices for Storage of Records 
to update the records storage medium in which the records are 
maintained; (7) to the Policies and Practices for Retrieval of Records 
to expand on how records are retrieved; (8) to the Administrative, 
Technical, and Physical Safeguards to update the individual safeguards 
protecting the personal information; and (9) to the Record Access and 
Notification Procedures sections to reflect the need for individuals to 
identify the appropriate DoD office or component to which their request 
should be directed.
    DoD SORNs have been published in the Federal Register and are 
available from the address in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or at the 
Privacy and Civil Liberties Directorate website at <a href="https://dpcld.defense.gov">https://dpcld.defense.gov</a>.

safeguards such as the following to information systems and paper 
recordkeeping systems: Multifactor log-in authentication including 
Common Access Card (CAC) authentication and password; physical token as 
required; physical and technological access controls governing access 
to data; network encryption to protect data transmitted over the 
network; disk encryption securing disks storing data; key management 
services to safeguard encryption keys; masking of sensitive data as 
practicable; mandatory information assurance and privacy training for 
individuals who will have access; identification, marking, and 
safeguarding of PII; physical access safeguards including multifactor 
identification physical access controls, detection and electronic alert 
systems for access to servers and other network infrastructure; and 
electronic intrusion detection systems in DoD facilities.
