Foreign National (FN) Administrative Controls - Written Procedures and Employee Training
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Failure to limit access for Foreign Nationals to classified information can result in the loss or compromise of NOFORN information. Documented local policies and procedures concerning what information FN employees or partners have access to and what they are excluded from having, what physical access limitations and allowances are in place, how to recognize a FN (badges, uniforms, etc.), steps to take to sanitize a work area before a FN can access the area, etc. are an essential part of controlling FN access. Just as important as development of policy and procedure is the training/familiarization of both employees and assigned FNs with the rules of interaction.

BACKGROUND: US employees must clearly understand the differences and limitations between REL Officers, other NATO partners, Non-NATO partners and Coalition Partners.
In a mixed US/FN partner environment the US personnel must know exactly what information can be shared and what cannot be shared or how to readily determine this information. For example the restrictions and cautions for partners from Belgium, Germany, France will be significantly greater relative to viewing anything on SIPRNet work stations versus the Australia, Canada, Great Britain partners.
REQUIREMENT: There must be written local procedures and initial/recurring (at least annual) employee training to ensure familiarization with the rules for sharing classified and sensitive information with our partners.
