             CRYPTOGRAPHIC CLEARANCE - BRIEFING STATEMENT


     1.  I, (print)   __ _mes   P. O'Connell.            , about to be
authorized to have custody of, access to, or knowledge of staff crypto-
graphic material or information of the Central Intelligence Agency, and
fully understanding that the preservation of the security of cryptographic
material or information is vital to the national interests of the United
States, do solemnly swear (or affirm) and declare without any mental
reservations whatsoever that I will protect the security of  such material
or information to the best of my ability, and that I will not  disclose
such material or information to any unauthorized person.  I understand
that the only persons authorized to have custody of, access to,  or knowl-
edge of staff cryptographic material or information  of this Agency are
those who hold a current CIA cryptographic clearance and need the  specific
material or information for the proper performance of their  official
duties.

     2.  I further swear  (or affirm) that I will also protect to the
best of my ability the security of the cryptographic material  or infor-
mation of other U.S. Government agencies should  I gain possession or
knowledge of such material or  information as the result of my perform-
ance of CIA cryptographic duties or in any other manner.

     3.  I will thoroughly familiarize myself with the pertinent  commu-
nications securityregulations,  instructions, and principles which  govern
the protection of cryptographic material or information.   I will at all
times provide the required degree of physical  security in the handling
of the material to ensure that it does not fall  into unauthorized hands
or be exposed to or  otherwise be made known to unauthorized persons.

     4.  I have read the provisions of Public Law  513.  I understand
that I am bound by that Act, both presently and  also after the termina-
tion of my employment with  the Central Intelligence Agency and/or the
revocation of my  cryptographic clearance. I fully  understand that im-
proper disclosure  or loss of cryptographic material or information could
subject me to punishment  under the provisions of that Act, or as provided
by the appropriate  regulations and practices of the Central Intelligence
Agency.

      5.  I understand that a cryptographic clearance is not a permanent
clearance, that  it will be revoked immediately should I fail to maintain
the required  security standards, or for lack of need or for other sub-
stantial reasons.   I understand that revocation of my cryptographic clear-
ance bars me automatically  from further access to cryptographic informa-
tion, but  does not release me from my obligation to protect the security
of cryptographic  information, the knowledge of which I might still retain.
