Applicants must demonstrate a need for confidential data, outlining why their research question cannot be answered using publicly available information. Submission for Review Upon submission of their application, applicants will receive a notification that their application has been received and is under review by the data owning agency or agencies (in the event where data assets are requested from multiple agencies). At this point, applicants will also be notified that application approval does not alone grant access to confidential data, and that, if approved, applicants must comply with the dataowning agency’s security requirements outside of the SAP Portal, which may include a background check. In accordance with the Evidence Act and the direction of the ICSP, agencies will approve or reject an application within a prompt timeframe. In some cases, agencies may determine that additional clarity, information, or modification is needed and request the applicant to ‘‘revise and resubmit’’ their application. Data discovery, the SAP application process, and the submission for review are planned to take place within the web-based SAP Portal. As noted above, the notice announcing plans to collect information through the SAP Portal has been published separately (87 FR 53793). Access to Restricted-Use Data In the event of a positive determination, the applicant will be notified that their proposal has been accepted. The positive or final adverse determination concludes the SAP Portal process. In the instance of a positive determination, the data-owning agency (or agencies) will contact the applicant to provide instructions on the agency’s security requirements that must be completed to gain access to the confidential data. The completion and submission of the agency’s security requirements will take place outside of the SAP Portal. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Collection of Information for Data Security Requirements In the instance of a positive determination for an application requesting access to an IES/NCESowned confidential data asset, NCES will contact the applicant(s) to initiate the process of collecting information to fulfill its data security requirements. This process allows NCES to place the applicant(s) in a trusted access category VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:43 Nov 23, 2022 Jkt 259001 and includes the collection of the following information from applicant(s): • Restricted-use licensing agreement—This document is an agreement between NCES and the applicant’s organization stipulating that NCES’s confidential data assets are provisioned exclusively for statistical purposes and that the applicant must handle and use the data in accordance with the terms and conditions stated in the agreement and all prevailing laws and regulations. The agreement requires signatures from the applicant(s) and a senior official at the applicant’s organization who has the authority to enter the organization into a legal agreement with NCES. A Memorandum of Understanding is used in lieu of a restricted-use data licensing agreement for other government agencies. • Security plan form—This document requests information from the applicant(s) to ensure the confidential data assets are protected from unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification. The information collected in the security plan form includes the following: Æ planned work location address(es), Æ workstation specifications (make, model, serial number, type, and operating system), Æ workstation authorized users, Æ workstation monitor position (to prevent unauthorized viewing), and Æ workstation antivirus brand and version. In addition, the applicant(s) must initial a series of security measures to indicate compliance. Finally, the form requires signatures from the applicant(s), a senior official at the applicant’s organization, and a System Security Officer (SSO) at the applicant’s organization. The SSO, in signing the Security plan form, assures the inspection and integrity of the applicant’s security plan. • Affidavit of nondisclosure form— This document describes the confidentiality protections the applicant(s) must uphold and the penalties for unauthorized access or disclosure. The form requires signatures from the applicant(s) as well as the imprint of a notary public. • Licensee training certificate—This document requests information from the applicant(s) to ensure the completion of the IES/NCES restricted-use data license training. These documents and a more complete description of the NCES Data Security Process will be available for public view during the 30D public comment period. PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Estimate of Burden The amount of time to complete the agreements and other paperwork that comprise NCES’s security requirements will vary based on the confidential data assets requested. To obtain access to NCES confidential data assets, it is estimated that the average time to complete and submit NCES’s data security agreements and other paperwork and to complete the required training is 45 minutes. This estimate does not include the time needed to complete and submit an application within the SAP Portal. All efforts related to SAP Portal applications occur prior to and separate from NCES’s effort to collect information related to data security requirements. The expected number of applications in the SAP Portal that receive a positive determination from NCES in a given year may vary. Overall, per year, NCES estimates it will collect data security information for 80 application submissions that received a positive determination within the SAP Portal. NCES estimates that the total burden for the collection of information for data security requirements over the course of the three-year OMB clearance will be about 180 hours and, as a result, an average annual burden of 60 hours.
