MEMORANDUM FOR: Colonel Russell T. Newman, USAF
Chairman, Compartmentation Subcommittee,
DCI Security Committee
FROM:
Executive Secretary, DC 1 Security Committee
SUBJECT: DCID 1/7
Attached for the consideration of your subcommittee and
subsequent report to the Security Committee is a draft
revision of DCID 1/7 prepared by the Committee staff. The
revision is designed to:
a. Reflect national level changes in security classi-
fication policy and procedures set forth in EO 12065 and
its implementing directive.
b. Accord with changed Community organization,
responsibilities and terminology as set forth in EQ 12036.
c. Provide tests for the circumstances under which
the security control markings authorized by the Directive
may be used. In this regard, it is intended that the
Warning Notice and ORCON markings represent, respectively,
an ascending hierarchy of security controls.
d. Eliminate control markings which do not now appear
to be needed. For example, the expansion of the National
Foreign Intelligence Board to include additional agencies
as members or observers and the availability of alternative
security controls, seems to make the NFIB Departments Only
marking superfluous.
e. Reemphasiebasic security requirements that the
release of intelligence information to foreign governments
or nationals requires permission of the originator. To
this end, the revision would drop the NOFORN control marking,
as such implies that material not so marked need not be
subject to the full range of foreign disclosure review
procedures.
f. Simplify the language of the present directive in
the interests of brevity and understanding.
