Episode 17: CUI / standardizing information protection

For information that hasn’t been classified, but is still in need of some level of protection we’ve long used the FOUO label (for official use only) to indicate that the information should be kept protected. The federal government has developed a new standard for information protection that all government agencies have to comply with, and part of that standard is replacing the FOUO classification with controlled unclassified information, or CUI for short. Welcome back for another episode of the AFLCMC leadership log podcast. Jeff Hetzler is the information security lead at AFLCMC's information protection office. For this episode We sat down with him (virtually) for a 101 discussion on the new standard, and what its phased in implementation will mean for all government agencies going forward.
