study.
Voluntary

Describe the process to notify and obtain consent
from the individuals whose PII is in the system when
major changes occur to the system (e.g., disclosure
28 and/or data uses have changed since the notice at
the time of original collection). Alternatively, describe
why they cannot be notified or have their consent
obtained.

PII identified is an authentication credential for system
administrator. There is no process in place to notify and obtain
consent from the individuals when there are major changes
occur to the system because those changes would require
themselves as an administrator, to perform or take action.
System administrators may send an email to their supervisor if
issues arise. PII is not collected from the study participants so
no process is necessary.

contractors, etc.) may access PII.
manager. Granulated rights at both application and server

Describe the methods in place to allow those with
33 access to PII to only access the minimum amount of
information necessary to perform their job.

Role based access controls are in place to ensure the concept
of "least privilege" is implemented. Based on the technical
director and project director’s assessment of each team
member, the network administrator creates and implements
network access groups. The access groups include system
administrator, data analyst, database administrator, and web
developer working on data validation, processing, etc . Each
individual assigned to work on the project is assigned to a
group associated with their role. Access rights are then
derived from that role. The project network directory structure
is organized such that access to each sub folder is restricted to
one or more network access groups, effectively ensuring that
an individual’s access to data containing PII is restricted only to
network areas pertaining to tasks the individual is required to
perform.

Identify training and awareness provided to
personnel (system owners, managers, operators,
contractors and/or program managers) using the
34
system to make them aware of their responsibilities
for protecting the information being collected and
maintained.

Security Awareness Training (SAT) annually which covers all
aspects of systems and data security and confidentiality.

responsibilities are require to complete additional training on
contingency plan and disaster recovery training on an annual
basis.

Describe training system users receive (above and
35 beyond general security and privacy awareness
training).

Systems and network infrastructure staff receive specific
security training based on the technology they support on an
ongoing basis and receive additional security training as
necessary to meet contract requirements.

Do contracts include Federal Acquisition Regulation
36 and other appropriate clauses ensuring adherence to
privacy provisions and practices?

Describe the process and guidelines in place with
37 regard to the retention and destruction of PII. Cite
specific records retention schedules.

Yes
No
User accounts and associated PII are removed when no longer
needed for access. The PII and user accounts are temporary
administrative records and not subject to long term records
retention.
CDC Records Control Schedule GRS-24-13a PKI Administrative
Records.
User accounts are reviewed annually.
PII identified is an authentication credential for system
administrator.

Describe, briefly but with specificity, how the PII will
38 be secured in the system using administrative,
technical, and physical controls.

Administrative Controls: include a security plan, file back-up,
least privilege, and training.
Technical Controls: Only the system administrator will have
access to the authentication credential. The users' credential
will be encrypted at the database level.
Physical Controls: include ID Badges, Key Cards, and Closed
Circuit TV (CCTV) for servers.
