Apply Limited Dissemination Controls and Lawful Government Purpose

Official citation: 32 CFR 2002.16; CUI LDC Registry

Class: informational · Severity: medium

Requirement text

32 CFR 2002.16; CUI LDC Registry

What it means

CUI may only be shared for a lawful government purpose, and Limited Dissemination Controls (LDCs) further restrict who may receive it. 32 CFR 2002.16 and the CUI Registry's LDC list govern which controls (e.g., NOFORN, FED ONLY) can be applied and how. Applying the wrong control — or ignoring one — is a disclosure risk.
