DCID 6/3 Compliance

On June 5, 1999, the Director of Central Intelligence issued directive 6/3 (DCID 6/3) titled "Protecting Sensitive Compartmented Information Within Information Systems." It establishes the security policy and procedures for storing, processing, and communicating classified intelligence information in information systems. An implementation manual corresponding to DCID 6/3 was published on May 24, 2000.
