Sec. 1203.201  Information security objectives.



    The objectives of the NASA Information Security Program are to:

    (a) Ensure that information is classified only when a sound basis 

exists for such classification and only for such period as is necessary.

    (b) Prevent both the unwarranted classification and the 

overclassification of NASA information.

    (c) Ensure the greatest practicable uniformity within NASA in the 

classification of information.

    (d) Ensure effective coordination and reasonable uniformity with 

other Government departments and agencies, particularly in areas where 

there is an interchange of information, techniques or hardware.

    (e) Provide a timely and effective means for downgrading or 

declassifying information when the circumstances necessitating the 

original classification change or no longer exist.
