Laptop Encryption Clause Samples

Laptop Encryption. All laptops used by Recipients, subgrantees, and contractors in carrying out the Recipient’s project plan, which contain FMCSA-related data, including sensitive information and Personally Identifiable Information (PII), must be encrypted to the same standards utilized by FMCSA. The FMCSA encryptions standards prescribe whole disk encryption (FDE), which requires software or hardware to encrypt all data on a disk, including the partition tables, whole physical disk, master boot record, and available files. FMCSA requires that each Recipient who utilizes FMCSA sensitive information or PII complete installation of FDE on all laptop computers as soon as practicable, but no later than September 30, 2013.
