Which document provides guidance for derivative classification for DoD personnel?

  1. DOD Directive 6000.12

  2. DODM 5200.01, DOD Information Security Program

  3. DOD Instruction 5200.08

  4. DOD Manual 5200.02

The correct answer is: DODM 5200.01, DOD Information Security Program

The correct choice identifies DODM 5200.01, DOD Information Security Program, as the document that provides guidance specifically for derivative classification among Department of Defense personnel. This directive contains comprehensive policies and procedures for managing classified information, including the classification process, ensuring individuals understand their responsibilities in derivative classification. By establishing a framework for how to appropriately derive and apply classification markings, it supports personnel in making sound classification decisions and maintaining the integrity of sensitive information across various levels and types of programs within the DoD. This underscores the importance of following established protocols to protect national security information effectively. The other options, while relevant to overall information security, do not focus specifically on derivative classification guidance.
