Security Fundamentals Professional Certification (SFPC) Practice Test

Unclassified DoD information in the possession of non-DoD entities must be safeguarded in a manner that ensures confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Storing this information in GSA-approved security containers is crucial because these containers meet specific security requirements that help protect the information from unauthorized access or disclosure. GSA (General Services Administration)-approved containers are designed to safeguard sensitive information, even if it is unclassified, ensuring that it is stored securely to mitigate the risk of loss or compromise.

This practice reflects a standard approach to managing and securing information, particularly when it comes to maintaining the safety of government data outside of traditional DoD environments. In this context, using appropriate storage solutions, such as GSA-approved security containers, is paramount for non-DoD entities handling unclassified DoD information, as they must adhere to established security protocols to protect that data effectively.
