Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business Administration.

ACTION: Notice of New Privacy Act System of Records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Small Business Administration (SBA) proposes to add a new 
system of records titled, Insider Threat Program System of Records, to 
its inventory of records systems subject to the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 
U.S.C. 552a), as amended. Publication of this notice complies with the 
Privacy Act and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-
130 requirement for agencies to publish a notice in the Federal 
Register whenever the agency establishes a new System of Records.

DATES: This action will be effective without further notice on August 
17, 2018 unless comments are received that would result in a contrary 
determination.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to Joseph P. Loddo, Director, Office 
of Continuous Operations and Risk Management, U.S. Small Business 
Administration, 409 3rd Street SW, 5th Floor, Washington, DC 20416.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joseph P. Loddo, (202) 205-7014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A System of Records is a group of any 
records under the control of a Federal agency from which information is 
retrieved by the name of an individual or by a number, symbol or other 
identifier assigned to the individual. The Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, 
requires each Federal agency to publish in the Federal Register a 
System of Records notice (SORN) identifying and describing each System 
of Records the agency maintains, the purposes for which the agency uses 
the personally identifiable information (PII) in the system, the 
routine uses for which the agency discloses such information outside 
the agency, and how individuals can exercise their rights related to 
their PII information.
    The U.S. Small Business Administration has created an Agency-wide 
repository known as the Insider Threat Program System of Records to 
manage insider threat matters within the SBA. The Insider Threat 
Program was mandated by E.O. 13587, Responsible Sharing and 
Safeguarding of Classified Information,'' issued October 7, 2011, which 
requires Federal agencies to establish an insider threat detection and 
prevention program to ensure the security of classified and controlled 
unclassified information with appropriate protections for privacy and 
civil liberties. Insider threats include: Attempted or actual 
espionage, subversion, sabotage, terrorism, or extremist activities: 
Unauthorized use of or intrusion into automated information systems; 
unauthorized disclosure of classified, controlled unclassified, 
sensitive, or proprietary information or technology; and indicators of 
potential insider threats. The SBA Insider Threat Program repository 
relies upon existing information from any SBA office, program, record, 
or source, and may include records from information security, personnel 
security, and systems security to support insider threat 
investigations. The SBA is not implementing a new IT system for the 
insider threat program.
SYSTEM NAME:

manage insider threat matters; facilitate insider threat investigations 
and activities associated with counterintelligence and counterespionage

threats to internal and external partners; and provide statistical
