Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 208 / Monday, October 30, 2017 / Notices
choices about budgets, employment,
health, investments, taxes, and a host of
other significant topics. The
overwhelming majority of Federal
surveys are conducted on a voluntary
basis. Respondents, ranging from
businesses to households to institutions,
may choose whether to provide the
requested information. Many of the
most valuable Federal statistics come
from surveys that ask for highly
sensitive information such as
proprietary business data from
companies or particularly personal
information or practices from
individuals. Strong and trusted
confidentiality and exclusively
statistical use pledges under the
Confidential Information Protection and
Statistical Efficiency Act (CIPSEA) and
similar statistical confidentiality
pledges are effective and necessary in
honoring the trust that businesses,
individuals, and institutions, by their
responses, place in statistical agencies.
Under CIPSEA and similar statistical
confidentiality protection statutes, many
Federal statistical agencies make
statutory pledges that the information
respondents provide will be seen only
by statistical agency personnel or their
sworn agents, and will be used only for
statistical purposes. CIPSEA and similar
statutes protect the confidentiality of
information that agencies collect solely
for statistical purposes and under a
pledge of confidentiality. These Acts
protect such statistical information from
administrative, law enforcement,
taxation, regulatory, or any other nonstatistical use and immunize the
information submitted to statistical
agencies from many legal processes.
Moreover, statutes like the CIPSEA carry
criminal penalties of a Class E felony
(fines up to $250,000, or up to five years
in prison, or both) for conviction of a
knowing and willful unauthorized
disclosure of covered information.
As part of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2016
signed on December 17, 2015, the
Congress enacted the Federal
Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015
(H.R. 2029, Division N, Title II, Subtitle
B, Sec. 223). This Act, among other
provisions, requires the Secretary of the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) to provide Federal civilian
agencies’ information technology
systems with cybersecurity protection
for their Internet traffic. The DHS
cybersecurity program’s objective is to
protect Federal civilian information
systems from malicious malware
attacks. The Federal statistical system’s
objective is to ensure that the DHS
Secretary performs those essential
duties in a manner that honors the
Government’s statutory promises to the
public to protect their confidential data.
Given that the DHS is not a Federal
statistical agency, both DHS and the
Federal statistical system have been
successfully engaged in finding a way to
balance both objectives and achieve
these mutually reinforcing objectives.
As required by passage of the Federal
Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of
2015, the Federal statistical community
will implement DHS’ cybersecurity
protection program, called Einstein.
The technology currently used to
provide this protection against cyber
malware electronically searches Internet
traffic in and out of Federal civilian
agencies in real time for malware
signatures. When such a signature is
found, the Internet packets that contain
the malware signature are shunted aside
for further inspection by DHS
personnel. Because it is possible that
such packets entering or leaving a
statistical agency’s information
technology system may contain
confidential statistical data, statistical
agencies can no longer promise their
respondents that their responses will be
seen only by statistical agency
personnel or their sworn agents.
However, they can promise, in
accordance with provisions of the
Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act
of 2015, that such monitoring can be
used only to protect information and
information systems from cybersecurity
risks, thereby, in effect, providing
stronger protection to the security and
integrity of the respondents’
submissions.
Accordingly, DHS and Federal
statistical agencies have developed a
Memorandum of Agreement for the
installation of Einstein cybersecurity
protection technology to monitor their
Internet traffic.
On February 2, 2017, in a pair of
Federal Register notices (82 FR 9599
and 82 FR 9597), the public was notified
of the change to the confidentiality
pledges to be used by NCSES. No
comments were received in response to
those notices.
Table 1 contains a listing of the
current numbers and information
collection titles for those NCSES
programs whose confidentiality pledges
will change to reflect the statutory
implementation of DHS’ Einstein
monitoring for cybersecurity protection
purposes. For the Information
Collection Requests (ICRs) listed in the
table below, NCSES statistical
confidentiality pledges will be modified
to include one of two sentences, based
on whether the collection agent is
another federal agency (e.g., the U.S.
Census Bureau) or a private-sector
contractor. For collections by another
federal agency, the following sentence
will be added to the confidentiality
pledge: ‘‘Per the Federal Cybersecurity
Enhancement Act of 2015, your data are
protected from cybersecurity risks
through screening of the systems that
transmit your data.’’ For collections by
private-sector contractors, whose
systems are not covered by Einstein, the
following sentence will be added to the
confidentiality pledge: ‘‘Per the Federal
Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of
2015, your data are protected from
cybersecurity risks through screening of
the federal information systems that
transmit your data.’’
Table 1 indicates which pledge
(federal vs. private) the ICR will use.

Confidentiality Pledge.
OMB Approval Number: 3145-0245.
Summary of Collection: Federal statistics provide key information
that the Nation uses to measure its performance and make informed
[[Page 50168]]
choices about budgets, employment, health, investments, taxes, and a
host of other significant topics. The overwhelming majority of Federal
surveys are conducted on a voluntary basis. Respondents, ranging from
businesses to households to institutions, may choose whether to provide
the requested information. Many of the most valuable Federal statistics
come from surveys that ask for highly sensitive information such as
proprietary business data from companies or particularly personal
information or practices from individuals. Strong and trusted
confidentiality and exclusively statistical use pledges under the
Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act
(CIPSEA) and similar statistical confidentiality pledges are effective
and necessary in honoring the trust that businesses, individuals, and
institutions, by their responses, place in statistical agencies.
Under CIPSEA and similar statistical confidentiality protection
statutes, many Federal statistical agencies make statutory pledges that
the information respondents provide will be seen only by statistical
agency personnel or their sworn agents, and will be used only for
statistical purposes. CIPSEA and similar statutes protect the
confidentiality of information that agencies collect solely for
statistical purposes and under a pledge of confidentiality. These Acts
protect such statistical information from administrative, law
enforcement, taxation, regulatory, or any other non-statistical use and
immunize the information submitted to statistical agencies from many
legal processes. Moreover, statutes like the CIPSEA carry criminal
penalties of a Class E felony (fines up to $250,000, or up to five
years in prison, or both) for conviction of a knowing and willful
unauthorized disclosure of covered information.
As part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2016
signed on December 17, 2015, the Congress enacted the Federal
Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015 (H.R. 2029, Division N, Title II,
Subtitle B, Sec. 223). This Act, among other provisions, requires the
Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide
Federal civilian agencies' information technology systems with
cybersecurity protection for their Internet traffic. The DHS
cybersecurity program's objective is to protect Federal civilian
information systems from malicious malware attacks. The Federal
statistical system's objective is to ensure that the DHS Secretary

As required by passage of the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act

The technology currently used to provide this protection against
cyber malware electronically searches Internet traffic in and out of
Federal civilian agencies in real time for malware signatures. When
such a signature is found, the Internet packets that contain the
malware signature are shunted aside for further inspection by DHS
personnel. Because it is possible that such packets entering or leaving

protect information and information systems from cybersecurity risks,
thereby, in effect, providing stronger protection to the security and
integrity of the respondents' submissions.
Accordingly, DHS and Federal statistical agencies have developed a
Memorandum of Agreement for the installation of Einstein cybersecurity
protection technology to monitor their Internet traffic.
On February 2, 2017, in a pair of Federal Register notices (82 FR
9599 and 82 FR 9597), the public was notified of the change to the
confidentiality pledges to be used by NCSES. No comments were received
in response to those notices.
Table 1 contains a listing of the current numbers and information
collection titles for those NCSES programs whose confidentiality
pledges will change to reflect the statutory implementation of DHS'
Einstein monitoring for cybersecurity protection purposes. For the
Information Collection Requests (ICRs) listed in the table below, NCSES
statistical confidentiality pledges will be modified to include one of
two sentences, based on whether the collection agent is another federal
agency (e.g., the U.S. Census Bureau) or a private-sector contractor.
For collections by another federal agency, the following sentence will
be added to the confidentiality pledge: ``Per the Federal Cybersecurity
Enhancement Act of 2015, your data are protected from cybersecurity
risks through screening of the systems that transmit your data.'' For
collections by private-sector contractors, whose systems are not
covered by Einstein, the following sentence will be added to the
confidentiality pledge: ``Per the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act
of 2015, your data are protected from cybersecurity risks through
screening of the federal information systems that transmit your data.''
Table 1 indicates which pledge (federal vs. private) the ICR will
use.
