The DoD CUI program standardizes processes per which framework?

• A. The federal CUI program framework.
• B. The DoD Information Assurance framework.
• C. The International Organization for Standardization CUI framework.
• D. The DoD Security Classification framework.

Answer: (A)

CUI handling across the DoD follows a government-wide policy that standardizes how CUI is marked, safeguarded, disseminated, and decontrolled. That standard is the Federal CUI Program framework, established to unify CUI practices across all agencies, including DoD, so information can move safely across boundaries. DoD does not use a separate IA framework for CUI, and ISO or the DoD Security Classification framework apply to other domains—IA focuses on protecting systems, ISO is an international standard, and the DoD Security Classification framework deals with classified data, not CUI. So, the federal CUI program framework is the framework DoD uses.
