or order issued pursuant thereto, the relevant records in the system of 
records may be referred, as a routine use, to the agency concerned,

charged with enforcing or implementing the statute, rule, regulation, 
or order issued pursuant thereto.

A record from a system of records maintained by a DoD Component may be

potential litigation to which the record is pertinent.

compromise there is a risk of harm to economic or property interests, 
identity theft or fraud, or harm to the security or integrity of this 
system or other systems or programs (whether maintained by the 
Component or another agency or entity) that rely upon the compromised 
information; and (3) the disclosure made to such agencies, entities, 
and persons is reasonably necessary to assist in connection with the 
Components efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed compromise
