- Categories specifically denote the handling of sensitive information, affecting access and dissemination.
Key Markings Defined
- Banner Line: Indicates the overall classification level of a document.
- Control Markings: Identify special access controls for information, specifying distribution limitations.
- TK (TALENT KEYHOLE): Protects space-based intelligence activities and related technologies; marked as TK.
- SAR (SPECIAL ACCESS REQUIRED): Denotes classified information needing strong protection as per EO 13526.
Foreign and Controlled Information
- FGI (FOREIGN GOVERNMENT INFORMATION): Marks US products containing foreign information; based on sharing agreements.
- CUI (Controlled Unclassified Information): Manages information needing protection but not classified under EO 13526 or AEA.

- RELIDO (RELEASABLE BY INFORMATION DISCLOSURE OFFICIAL): Allows particular information to be shared based on originator approval.
- LIMDIS (LIMITED DISTRIBUTION): Governs the limited distribution of unclassified geospatial intelligence to authorized entities.
- RSEN (RISK SENSITIVE): Protects critical capabilities and techniques sensitive to exploitation.
Imagery Control
- IMCON (CONTROLLED IMAGERY): Safeguards sources around geospatial intelligence, emphasizing protection against countermeasures.
Authorized Markings
- Each classification has corresponding authorized banners and portion markings such as:
- IMCON: Banner - CONTROLLED IMAGERY, Portion Marking - IMC
- LIMDIS: Banner - LIMITED DISTRIBUTION, Portion Marking - DS
- RSEN: Banner - RISK SENSITIVE, Portion Marking - RS
