SBU Standardization: Essential Tool for Government and Defenders
The nature of the threats facing our Nation makes it vital that our Nation’s entire network of defenders be able to share information more rapidly so that those who must act have the information they need; and the government can protect sensitive information and the information privacy and other legal rights of Americans. The lack of government-wide standards for Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) information severely impedes these dual imperatives. SBU standardization will enable our government and defenders to rely on consistent policies and procedures for sharing and protecting SBU information, thus giving them tools to meet the today’s threats.

Presenting Speaker:	Thomas E. "Ted" McNamara, Ambassador, Program Manager, Office of the Director of National Intelligence
