disclosing agency becomes aware of an indication of a violation or 
potential violation of civil or criminal law or regulation; (3)

    Magnetic Media.

RETRIEVABILITY:

SAFEGUARDS:
    Access to computer area is controlled by a security pass 
arrangement and personnel not connected with the operation of the 
computer are prohibited from entering. The building security is 
protected by a uniformed guard. At the ports of processing, terminal 
rooms are under close supervision during working hours and locked after 
close of business. The system security officer issues a unique private 
five digit identification code to each authorized user. Access to the 
Customs computer from other than system terminals is controlled through 
a security software package. Users must input a unique identification 
code and password during the terminal log-in procedure to gain access 
to the system. The password is not printed or displayed at the port of 
processing. The system validates the user ID by transaction type, 
thereby limiting a system user's access to information on a ``need-to-
know'' basis. A listing of identification codes of authorized users can 
be printed only by request of the security officer. The passwords are 
changed periodically to enhance security.
