Wrongful disclosure thereof is recognized in the Federal Criminal Code

5209, March 10, 1972), identifies the information to be protected, 
prescribes classification, downgrading, declassification, and 
safeguarding procedures to be followed and establishes a monitoring 
system to insure its effectiveness. National Security Council Directive

10053, May 19, 1972), implements E.O. 11652.
