Title

The organization must produce a written policy and training material that states CMDs that are classified as non-enterprise activated must not be used to send, receive, store, or process sensitive/FOUO or classified data and information or connect to DoD networks. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Some CMDs are not authorized to store or process sensitive DoD data and information because they do not have required security controls to protect the data/information. There is a high risk that sensitive data will be exposed to unauthorized personnel with access to the device. Sensitive DoD data or information is defined as any data/information that has not been approved for public release by the site/Command Public Affairs Officer (PAO).

Check Content

CMDs classified as non-enterprise activated are not authorized to send, receive, store, or process sensitive DoD information or connect to DoD networks. Interview the security personnel and 2-3 users who are using mobile devices that are managed by the site, and which are not authorized to connect to DoD networks. Verify written policy and training material exists (or requirement is listed on a signed user agreement) stating mobile devices must not be used to send, receive, store, or process sensitive or classified DoD data/information or connect to DoD networks. If written policy or training material does not exist or users are not aware of the requirement, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Develop a written policy and training material that states CMDs classified as non-enterprise activated must not be used to send, receive, store, or process sensitive/FOUO or classified data and information or connect to DoD networks.
