    Study Notes

    Cyber Awareness and Information Security

    • Spillage should be reported immediately and proper incident response procedures initiated.
    • Classified information downgraded to unclassified does not constitute spillage.
    • Inappropriate protection against spillage includes using classified networks for unclassified tasks.
    • Downloading classified information from the internet is strictly prohibited.
    • A computer labeled SECRET must not be used on unclassified networks.
    • "Secret" information, when disclosed without authorization, is likely to cause serious damage to national security.
    • Insider threats are dangerous due to their trusted status and authorized access to sensitive information.
    • Unauthorized removal of sensitive information by a coworker should be reported as a potential security incident.
    • Observable behavioral issues in colleagues can indicate insider threats, necessitating attention and reporting.
    • Avoid discussing work-related matters outside authorized spaces to mitigate risks associated with insider threats.
    • Colleagues should adhere to organizational policies and report suspicious behaviors to prevent security breaches.
    • Personal email addresses on social networking sites pose significant security risks.
    • Use privacy settings to limit exposure of sensitive biographical data and personal information.
    • Secure sensitive information by avoiding storage on just any password-protected system; consider the strength of the system.
    • Unclassified drafts may be shared with non-DoD professionals if they have been cleared for public release.
    • Sensitive information includes personal, payroll, medical, and operational data, which requires careful handling.
    • Running applications prompted by unexpected pop-ups is unsafe; only allow trusted sources.
    • Good physical security practices entail using personal access devices such as security badges or CACs.
    • Always use DoD PKI tokens within their designated classification levels to ensure security compliance.
    • Protect CAC or PIV cards by keeping them secured and in personal possession at all times.
    • Best practices for handling cookies and evaluating their safety should be adopted to safeguard personal and sensitive information.
    • Legitimate emails from government entities should be verified for digital signatures before proceeding.
    • Unknown payment requests via email should initiate contact with the agency using verified public contact information.
    • Safety in opening email attachments is generally assured with digitally signed messages from known contacts.
    • Ensure secure practices when traveling with mobile phones, especially regarding data security.
    • Using public Wi-Fi connections poses risks that require familiarity with secure connection methods, like VPNs.
    • Avoid downloading non-work-related applications, such as games, on work devices.
    • Report any security incidents immediately, such as a stranger taking a government phone.
    • Mobile devices encompass a variety of electronics, including smartphones, tablets, and wearables.
    • Securing home computers requires regular updates to antivirus software to fend off threats.
