1. Drafting Officers are encouraged to use the SIPDIS caption
only on those cables deemed appropriate for sharing - such as
cable reporting messages, analytical pieces, and policy
instructions. SIPDIS content in the NCD system is available
to hundreds of thousands of employees and contractors
throughout the Federal Government. Accordingly, drafting and
approving officers should be aware that posting or making
available personal information of American citizens or lawful
permanent residents (including Social Security Numbers;
information concerning employees, such as travel messages,
performance reports, and medical assessments; and arrest
reports of American citizens) may violate the Privacy Act
and/or new federal requirements on safeguarding Personally
Identifiable Information (PII). Posting such information also
is prohibited by Intelink's Terms of Use. Additional guidance
on Privacy Act and PII is available on the A Bureau's Home
Page, Featured Information, click on Privacy Matters, or go to
http://a.state.gov/content/privacymatters/ind ex.asp.
2. When the SIPDIS caption is placed on a cable, the message
is processed by the NCD system and published automatically to
a post or Department webpage, and to other databases and
search tools that are available to interagency users on
SIPRNet. Older archived cables can also be manually uploaded.
Currently more than 200 overseas posts are using the SIPDIS
caption to share information with other agencies. More than
120,000 cables dating from 1991 are now in the SIPDIS
database.
3. Extension of the SIPDIS caption to cables originating in
the Department is part of a recent upgrade of the Department's
NCD system. This NCD upgrade enables faster response times
and an improved web interface that allows users to see, at a
glance, the relative frequency of particular TAGS (Traffic
Analysis by Geography and Subject) used on cables about a
subject, or to view all cables with a particular TAGS.
4. Users can access the NCD cable display on SIPRNet at
http://ncd.state.sgov.gov as well as on the State SIPRNet Home
Pages at http://www.state.sgov.gov. If you cannot access
these websites via your ClassNet PC, contact your post IT
staff to properly configure your ClassNet browser. Questions
regarding the NCD system or this Department notice should be
directed to SIPDIS_Help@state.sgov.gov. Questions related to
privacy issues should be sent to Privacy-DL@state.gov.
5. Minimize considered.
