Purpose

This guide describes how to properly mark Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as Covered Information pursuant to terms and conditions in the AFSIM Information Transfer Agreement (ITA) or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

As with other controlled or classified information, access to AFSIM requires an authorized and lawful government purpose. Furthermore, every AFSIM user is a steward of information that the United States has deemed valuable or sensitive.

The continued accessibility and security of AFSIM depends upon every member of the community understanding how to receive, handle, create, and disseminate CUI. All AFSIM users should become familiar with this marking guide and the official guidance and training published by the DoD CUI Program.

Background

The AFSIM ITA or MOU, as applicable, define the terms and conditions for proper control and use of AFSIM and related information (i.e., Covered Information). Such information (source code, documentation, or data products) distributed, generated, or used by the AFSIM community under these agreements require appropriate markings.

Appropriate markings help all members of the community safeguard CUI on their own systems while actively participating in AFSIM’s continued development and evolution on shared platforms. Appropriate markings also help prevent confusion regarding suitable and non-suitable uses of AFSIM.

Suitable uses of AFSIM include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Use by a DoD organization in support of DoD efforts

  • Use by a DoD organization in support of international partnerships with appropriate agreements

  • Use by a DoD contractor on DoD contracted efforts

  • Use by a DoD contractor for Internal Research and Development (IR&D)

  • Use by a DoD contractor in support of efforts with export license covering output generated from AFSIM

Non-suitable uses of AFSIM include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Use by a DoD organization or DoD contractor with the intent to release significant portions of generated data to the public

  • Use by a DoD organization or DoD contractor to partner with a non-DoD entity (such as a University unable to handle ITAR material)

Controlled Unclassified Information

Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) requires safeguarding until authorized for public release in accordance with applicable law, federal regulations, and departmental policies. CUI policies (EO 13556, 32 CFR Part 2002, DoDI 5200.48 4 , DFARS 252.204-7008 and DFARS 252.204-7012) establish a uniform marking system across the DoD that replaces a variety of agency-specific or legacy markings such as FOUO. Refer to the official guidance and training published by the DoD CUI Program for more information.

CUI Categories

The DoD CUI Program has defined multiple categories of CUI. Two of these categories are applicable to AFSIM.

Controlled Technical Information

Controlled Technical Information (CTI) means technical information with military or space application that is subject to controls on the access, use, reproduction, modification, performance, display, release, disclosure, or dissemination. Controlled technical information is to be marked with one of the distribution statements B through F, in accordance with Department of Defense Instruction 5230.24, “Distribution Statements of Technical Documents.”

The term does not include information that is lawfully publicly available without restrictions. “Technical Information” means technical data or computer software, as those terms are defined in Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement clause 252.227-7013, “Rights in Technical Data - Noncommercial Items” (48 CFR 252.227-7013).

Examples of technical information include research and engineering data, engineering drawings, and associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical reports, technical orders, catalog-item identifications, data sets, studies and analyses and related information, and computer software executable code and source code.

Export Controlled Information

Export control of DoD articles, services, and technical data is governed by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) (22 CFR Parts 120-130). In particular Part 121 of the ITAR, called the US Munitions List (USML), enumerates the particular categories and sub-categories of DoD articles, services, and technical data which are to be export controlled.

Official rulings on whether or not a DoD article, service, or technical data generated by the DoD falls under the USML are provided by the Defense Technology Security Administration (DTSA).

DoD component organizations are already eligible to receive and process export controlled material. However, DoD contractors must have a form DD Form 2345 in place for each facility (per CAGE Code) at which the export controlled material will be received and used. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Joint Certification Program (JCP) manages DD Form 2345s.

Limited Dissemination Controls

Limited Dissemination Controls (LDCs) establish restrictions on the secondary distribution (i.e., redistribution) of CUI. For instance, DoDI 5230.24 establishes distribution statements for managing, sharing, safeguarding, and disseminating CTI. All DoD components generating or responsible for CTI establish these controls before primary distribution. Likewise, DoDI 5230.24, DoDD 5230.25, and 32 CFR Part 250 establish guidelines for export controlled information. Applicable LDCs follow directly from the terms and conditions in the AFSIM ITA and MOU or help promote community-wide collaboration and exchange of information.

Policies

The following policies apply to all CUI distributed, generated, or used under the terms of the AFSIM ITA or MOU.

AFSIM is Controlled Technical Information

Unless otherwise determined by the DoD controlling office (AFRL/RQ), AFSIM and any output from AFSIM is Controlled Technical Information.

AFSIM is Export Controlled

Per DTSA review (March 2018), AFSIM is an export controlled product under USML Category IX(b)(4) & IX(b)(5). Unless otherwise determined by DTSA, all AFSIM modules and components are also export controlled products.

NOTE: Organizations cannot export AFSIM (or portions of it) without written authorization from the DoD controlling office (AFRL/RQ) even if covered by an existing export license or agreement. Please contract afrl.rq.afsim@us.af.mil for assistance.

AFSIM Output is also Export Controlled

Per DTSA guidance (November 2018), all output from AFSIM is export controlled regardless of input. Through the AFSIM ITA, industry partners acknowledge their responsibility under U.S. export control laws and regulations (including the obligation, under certain circumstances, to obtain an export license prior to release of data generated using AFSIM) and agree to not disseminate any export controlled data in a manner that would violate applicable export control laws and regulations. Violation of these export laws are subject to severe criminal penalties. Through the AFSIM MOU, DoD organizations acknowledge a similar responsibility to export data through established country-to-country agreements (e.g., a Project Agreement (PA).

Public Release Coordination

Neither the DoD controlling office (AFRL/RQ) nor the AFSIM Product Management Team (PMT) can authorize community-generated content for public release. Only an authorized DoD OPSEC coordination process and official can approve AFSIM-related CUI for public release.

DoD organizations should initiate this activity through their local OPSEC coordinator and adhere to all organization-specific policies and guidelines. DoD contractors should initiate this activity through a cognizant government program manager or contract officer.

DoD organizations and industry partners may choose to submit material to the AFSIM PMT for an informal review (from an AFSIM content perspective) prior to submitting through an authorized release process. Many DoD organizations require this informal review as evidence of joint/program-level coordination prior to public release.

NOTE: Unless or until authorized for public release, CUI requires proper safeguarding. This requires the use of approved methods of transmitting CUI material such as encrypted mail or secure file exchange.

  • afrl.rq.afsim@us.af.mil supports encryption. Exchange certificates prior to sending CUI.

  • Use DoD SAFE to transmit large files. First contact the recipient to arrange a drop-off.

Mandatory LDCs

The terms and conditions in the AFSIM ITA or MOU prohibit secondary distribution (i.e., redistribution) of AFSIM binaries and source code. These artifacts should consistently use LDC/Distribution Statement F.

AFSIM Binaries : The compiled executables, libraries, or plugins distributed to the community through packages and installers

AFSIM Source Code : The distributed codebase that includes software source artifacts (e.g., C++ and Python), documentation source artifacts (e.g., reStructuredText and Markdown), and ancillary build system artifacts (e.g., CMake scripts)

Special LDCs

In cases where the DoD controlling office (AFRL/RQ) authorizes a variant of AFSIM for export through an appropriate country-to-country agreement, additional dissemination controls may apply to individual source or data module.

Unrestricted Modules : Dissemination of these modules may be authorized to those individuals, organizations, or entities in The Technical Cooperation Program (TTCP). The use of “REL TO USA, FVEY” is not appropriate in this case because the authorized dissemination list is more restrictive.

Restricted Modules : Dissemination of these modules will not be authorized to individuals, organizations, or entities in other countries. The Foreign Disclosure Office (FDO) has made a decision to not include these modules in any export variant.

Frequently Asked Questions

Including AFSIM Output in Reports

What distribution statement should I use if my briefing (or report) contains AFSIM output or results?

Choose the least restrictive control that will promote the free flow of information within the DoD while using discretion based on programmatic guidance. See Recommended LDCs for suggestions.

Keep in mind that all output from AFSIM is export controlled until downgraded through an appropriate DoD review process. Remember to also identify all applicable CUI categories and warnings. See CUI Categories for more information.

Including Videos or Screenshots in Reports

What distribution statement should I use if my report (or briefing) contains videos or screenshots from AFSIM applications?

Videos and screenshots are also considered AFSIM output. Refer to Including AFSIM Output in Reports.

Including Source Code Snippets

What distribution statement should I use if my report (or briefing) contains AFSIM source code snippets?

Content that includes AFSIM code snippets (broadly interpreted to include both application source code and input/ script files) should retain the most restrictive dissemination control from code sources. For a point of reference, core framework source code typically uses the most restrictive control (i.e., DIST-F or DL Only) whereas model and scenario input/script/data files use less restrictive controls (i.e., DIST-C or DIST-D).

Keep in mind that AFSIM is export controlled. Remember to also retain all applicable CUI categories and warnings from these code sources. See CUI Categories for more information.

Including Information from User Documentation

What distribution statement should I use if my report (or briefing) includes information from AFSIM user documentation?

Content that includes (through quotation or copied in the form of an appendix) information from the AFSIM user documentation should retain the most restrictive dissemination control from documentation sources. For a point of reference, the generated (e.g., HTML or PDF) AFSIM user documentation uses an LDC/Distribution Statement of DIST-C. This permits AFSIM documentation to accompany official reports maintained in DTIC.

Keep in mind that AFSIM is export controlled. Remember to also retain all applicable CUI categories and warnings from these code sources. See CUI Categories for more information.

Including Information from Source Documentation

What distribution statement should I use if my report (or briefing) includes information from AFSIM source documentation?

Handle information included from generated source documentation (e.g., Doxygen output with UML diagrams) in the same manner as generated user documentation. Keep in mind that distribution statements differ between source code and documentation generated from source code. For a point of reference, the generated (e.g., HTML) source documentation uses an LDC/Distribution Statement of DIST-C. This permits architectural and design documentation to accompany official reports maintained in DTIC.

Keep in mind that AFSIM is export controlled. Remember to also retain all applicable CUI categories and warnings from these code sources. See CUI Categories for more information.

The following example is typical of data packages (e.g., boxed set scenarios, models, and demos) included with the AFSIM distribution. Both the Controlled Technical Information (CTI) and Export Controlled (EXPT) categories apply. The package is not excluded from export variants and distribution is not limited by the terms and conditions in the AFSIM MOU or ITA. This package uses the optional metadata block to convey model-specific pedigree and V&V information.

A Restricted, Mixed Data Package

Where a data package mixes both classified and CUI, it is necessary to retain the CUI markings. The following example applies to a few data packages (e.g., boxed set scenarios, models, and demos) included with the classified AFSIM distribution. Both the Controlled Technical Information (CTI) and Export Controlled (EXPT) categories apply. Unlike the previous example, this module is excluded from export variants. Accordingly, the REL TO banner is retained, the NOTICE TO ACCOMPANY FOREIGN DISCLOSURE is dropped, and a NO_EXPORT guard file is added to the root folder.
