required to be closed pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(1)(A) & (B) The second
agenda item, a discussion of potential
NSTAC study topics, will address areas
of critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities
and priorities for Government.
Government officials will share data
with NSTAC members on initiatives,
assessments, and future security
requirements across public and private
sector networks. The information will
include specific vulnerabilities within
cyberspace that affect the United States’
information and communication
technology infrastructures and proposed
mitigation strategies. Disclosure of this
information to the public would provide
criminals with an incentive to focus on
these vulnerabilities to increase attacks
on the Nation’s critical infrastructure
and communications networks. As
disclosure of this portion of the meeting
is likely to significantly frustrate
implementation of proposed DHS
actions, it is required to be closed
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B).
Helen Jackson,
Designated Federal Officer for the NSTAC.

Jkt 241001
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to
modify a current DHS system of records
titled, ‘‘Department of Homeland
Security/U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services, U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement, U.S.
Customs and Border Protection—001
Alien File, Index, and National File
Tracking System of Records.’’ This
system of records contains information
regarding transactions involving an
individual as he or she passes through
the U.S. immigration process, some of
which may also be covered by separate
Systems of Records Notices. DHS
primarily maintains information relating
to the adjudication of benefits,
investigation of immigration violations,
and enforcement actions in Alien Files
(A-Files). Alien Files became the official
file for all immigration records created
or consolidated since April 1, 1944.
Before A-Files, many individuals had
more than one file with the agency. To
streamline immigration recordkeeping,
legacy Immigration and Naturalization
Service issued each individual an Alien
Number, allowing the agency to create
a single file for each individual
containing that individual’s official

immigration record. DHS also uses other
immigration files to support
administrative, fiscal, and legal needs.
DATES: Submit comments on or before
October 18, 2017. This modified system
will be effective upon publication. New
or modified routine uses will become
effective October 18, 2017.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,
identified by docket number DHS–
2017–0038 by one of the following
methods:
• Federal e-Rulemaking Portal: https://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
• Fax: 202–343–4010.
• Mail: Jonathan R. Cantor, Acting
Chief Privacy Officer, Privacy Office,
Department of Homeland Security,
Washington, DC 20528–0655.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
general questions, please contact:
Donald K. Hawkins, (202) 272–8000,
Privacy Officer, U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services, 20 Massachusetts
Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20529.
For privacy questions, please contact:
Jonathan R. Cantor, (202) 343–1717,
Acting Chief Privacy Officer, Privacy
Office, Department of Homeland
Security, Washington, DC 20528–0655.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As DHS
moves to conducting more immigration
actions in an electronic environment
and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS) adjudicates more
immigration benefits and requests for
action in its USCIS Electronic
Immigration System, DHS no longer
considers the paper A-File as the sole
repository and official record of
information related to an individual’s
official immigration record. An
individual’s immigration history may be
in the following materials and formats:
(1) A paper A-File; (2) an electronic
record in the Enterprise Document
Management System or USCIS
Electronic Immigration System; or (3) a
combination of paper and electronic
records and supporting documentation.
The Department of Homeland
Security, therefore, is updating the
‘‘Department of Homeland Security/U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services,
U.S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border
Protection–001 Alien File, Index, and
National File Tracking System of
Records notice to: (1) Redefine which
records constitute the official record of
an individual’s immigration history to
include the following materials and
formats: (a) The paper A-File, (b) an
electronic record in the Enterprise
Document Management System or U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services
Electronic Immigration System, or (c) a
