Derivative classification is the process of determining whether information that is to be included in a document or material has been classified and, if it has, ensuring that it is identified as classified information by marking or similar means. It involves incorporating, paraphrasing, restating, or generating in new form information that is already classified.

Department of Defense (DoD) officials are the source for derivative classification. They must sign or approve documents for classification.

Information taken directly from an existing classified source and stated verbatim in a new or different document is an example of ______

• Restating
• Extracting
• Generating
• Paraphrasing

The source document states:

(S) The process takes three hours to complete.

The new document states:

(S) The process takes three hours to complete.

Which concept was used to determine the derivative classification of the new document?

• Extension
• Revealed by
• Contained in
• Compilation

Submitting a formal challenge to information that may be improperly classified

A collection of precise, comprehensive guidance about specific program, system, operation, or weapon system elements of information to be classified.

All of the following are steps in derivative classification EXCEPT:
