Summary

Elsewhere in this Federal Register, the United States Department of Justice (Department or DOJ) has published a new Privacy Act System of Records Notice, JUSTICE/DOJ-018, "DOJ Insider Threat Program Records." Further, the Department issued a rescindment notice for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) System of Records Notice titled, "FBI Insider Threat Program Records," JUSTICE/FBI-023. In this document, the DOJ withdraws the notice of proposed rulemaking for the "FBI Insider Threat Program Records" issued in CPCLO Order No. 008-2016, published on September 19, 2016, and proposes to exempt JUSTICE/DOJ-018 from certain provisions of the Privacy Act, in order to avoid interference with efforts to detect, deter, and/or mitigate insider threats. Public comment is invited.
