interstate and intrastate motor carrier operations within their 
jurisdictions.

Retrievability:
    Records are retrieved by the driver's name, date of birth, vehicle 
identifier, mailing address, and phone number.

Safeguards:
    SAFETYNET information is accessible only to FMCSA and State 
enforcement personnel with specifically assigned user IDs and

assigned IDs and passwords. All SAFETYNET IDs and passwords are issued 
to users only after approval by local SAFETYNET System Managers, or 
their designees. All Federal and State enforcement related access to 
SAFETYNET is limited to FMCSA or State internal networks. The upload of 
data to centralized FMCSA systems is through the FMCSA internal 
network, specifically designated trusted source networks, or other 
approved encryption communication protocols. Physical security and 
access to the hosting facility is managed and maintained by the local 
SAFETYNET System Manager. FMCSA Division and Service Center offices 
keep their servers in a secure room. It is the responsibility of each
