Section I-607 - Procedure for Submitting Security-Sensitive Information

a. the measures taken to guard against undesired disclosure of the information to others;

b. the extent to which the information has been disclosed to others and the precautions taken in connection therewith;

c. whether disclosure of the information would be likely to result in substantial harmful effects and, if so, what those harmful effects would be, why they should be viewed as substantial, and an explanation of the causal relationship between disclosure and such harmful effects;

d. the period of time for which protection from Internet distribution or dissemination is desired; and

e. a certification that all statements are true and correct to the best of the provider's knowledge.
