    This part governs the DoD Information Security Program and takes 
precedence over all DoD Component regulations that implement that

Oversight Office (ISOO) Directive No. 1, it establishes, for the 
Department of Defense, uniform policies, standards, criteria, and 
procedures for the security classification, downgrading, 
declassification, and safeguarding of information that is owned by, 
produced for or by, or under the control of the Department of Defense or 
its Components.
