A Manual Procedure

A Delegation of Disclosure Authority Letter (DDL) must be on hand for each assigned REL partner or other FN partner granted Limited Access to US Classified systems or information. 

NOTE 1: All disclosures and denials of classified military information are reported in the Foreign Disclosure and Technical Information System (FORDTIS). A DDL is required to validate and set parameters for FN access to any US Classified information. 

NOTE 2: The organization's supporting Foreign Disclosure/Contact Officer (FDO) will be the POC for this.

NOTE 3: DODM 8570 requirements will be met until full implementation of DODM 8140.03 requirements. Implementation dates for DOD Manual 8140.03 include a two-year timeline for personnel (civilian and military) in positions coded with cybersecurity work roles and three years for personnel (civilian and military) in positions coded with work roles in any other workforce element. The dates for required qualification would be 15 February 2025 for cybersecurity work roles and the same date in February 2026 for all Defense Cyber Workforce Framework work roles.
