through (g) of the HSA.
(4) The issuance of advisories, notices
and warnings related to the protection
of critical infrastructure or protected
systems in such a manner as to protect
from unauthorized disclosure the
source of critical infrastructure information that forms the basis of the
warning, and any information that is
proprietary or business sensitive,
might be used to identify the submitting person or entity, or is otherwise
not appropriately in the public domain.
(b) Scope. The regulations in this part
apply to all persons and entities that

§ 29.2

PART 29—PROTECTED CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE INFORMATION
Sec.
29.1 Purpose and scope.
29.2 Definitions.
29.3 Effect of provisions.
29.4 Protected Critical Infrastructure Information Program administration.
29.5 Requirements for protection.
29.6 Acknowledgment of receipt, validation,
and marking.
29.7 Safeguarding of Protected Critical Infrastructure Information.
29.8 Disclosure of Protected Critical Infrastructure Information.
29.9 Investigation and reporting of violation
of PCII procedures.

§ 29.1 Purpose and scope.
(a) Purpose of this Part. This part implements sections 211 through 215 of
the Homeland Security Act of 2002
(HSA) through the establishment of
uniform procedures for the receipt,
care, and storage of Critical Infrastructure Information (CII) voluntarily submitted to the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS). Title II, Subtitle B, of
the Homeland Security Act is referred
to herein as the Critical Infrastructure
Information Act of 2002 (CII Act). Consistent with the statutory mission of
DHS to prevent terrorist attacks within the United States and reduce the
vulnerability of the United States to
terrorism, DHS will encourage the voluntary submission of CII by safeguarding and protecting that information from unauthorized disclosure and
by ensuring that such information is,
as necessary, securely shared with
State and local government pursuant
to section 214(a) through (g) of the CII
Act. As required by the CII Act, these
rules establish procedures regarding:
(1) The acknowledgement of receipt
by DHS of voluntarily submitted CII;
(2) The receipt, validation, handling,
storage, proper marking and use of information as PCII;
(3) The safeguarding and maintenance of the confidentiality of such information, appropriate sharing of such

Definitions.

For purposes of this part:
(a) Critical Infrastructure has the
meaning stated in section 2 of the
Homeland Security Act of 2002 (referencing the term used in section
1016(e) of Public Law 107–56 (42 U.S.C.
5195c(e)).
(b) Critical Infrastructure Information,
or CII, has the same meaning as established in section 212 of the CII Act of
2002 and means information not customarily in the public domain and related to the security of critical infrastructure or protected systems, including documents, records or other information concerning:
(1) Actual, potential, or threatened
interference with, attack on, compromise of, or incapacitation of critical
infrastructure or protected systems by
either physical or computer-based attack or other similar conduct (including the misuse of or unauthorized access to all types of communications
and data transmission systems) that
violates Federal, State, local, or tribal
law, harms interstate commerce of the
United States, or threatens public
health or safety;
(2) The ability of any critical infrastructure or protected system to resist
such interference, compromise, or incapacitation, including any planned or
