National Emissions Policies and Procedures
LOW MODERATE HIGHRequirements NIST SOURCE
Protect system components, associated data communications, and networks in accordance with national Emissions Security policies and procedures based on the security category or classification of the information.
Discussion (NIST Supplemental Guidance)
Emissions Security (EMSEC) policies include the former TEMPEST policies.

Assessment
Assessment Objectives
- system components are protected in accordance with national emissions security policies and procedures based on the security category or classification of the information;
- associated data communications are protected in accordance with national emissions security policies and procedures based on the security category or classification of the information;
- networks are protected in accordance with national emissions security policies and procedures based on the security category or classification of the information.

STIGs & CCIs
No STIG checks or CCI mappings are currently loaded for PE-19(1). This section is architected to display, per product: STIG ID, Finding ID, Severity, Title, Description, Check, Fix, CCI, and NIST control mapping — but nothing is populated here until a real DISA STIG/CCI dataset is ingested.
