Data Internal Operations: Internal Data Management

In the realm of government information, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) plays a significant role. This category of information, marked as CUI, is subject to safeguarding and dissemination authorities outlined in various US laws.

The basic authorities for the safeguarding and dissemination of CUI do not include the ID marking, but an alternative banner marking for these basic authorities is CUI//ID. This marking signifies that the information is for a limited group. The CUI marking itself stands for Controlled Unclassified Information.

On the other hand, the specified authorities for the safeguarding and dissemination of CUI include the ID marking. The use of the SP-ID marking within CUI indicates that the information is for a limited group and requires specified authorities for its handling. This marking, CUI//SP-ID, is used for a category of specified authorities.

One of the key basic authorities is the Safeguarding and/or Dissemination Authority for locating source documents for CUI authorities under 10 USC 424. This authority is marked as CUI and is a basic authority. Another such authority can be found under 50 USC 3507, also marked as CUI and a basic authority.

The Safeguarding and/or Dissemination Authorities listed are relevant for locating source documents related to CUI authorities. However, it's important to note that the name of the authority that exercises Specified CUI Authority for the safeguarding and/or dissemination of CUI is not explicitly mentioned in the search results provided.

The information under the CUI marking involves intelligence activities, sources, or methods, and may also pertain to the CIA's organization, functions, names, official titles, salaries, or numbers of personnel. This category of information, including sensitive details about the CIA, is not intended for dissemination beyond CIA channels.

In summary, understanding the CUI markings and authorities is crucial in managing and protecting sensitive government information. The markings provide a clear indication of the intended audience and the necessary authorities for handling such information.
