1. The system documents/information cited are examples of the most likely but not the only references for the required information. If other references are more appropriate, they may be used in addition to or instead of those cited. Include page(s) and paragraph(s), where appropriate.
2. These requirements are presumed to be satisfied for Weapons Systems with embedded IT and for Command and

5. Definitions:
Mission-Critical Information System. A system that meets the definitions of "information system" and "national security system" in the CCA (Reference (v)), the loss of which would cause the stoppage of warfighter operations or
direct mission support of warfighter operations. (The designation of mission critical shall be made by a
Component Head, a Combatant Commander, or their designee. A financial management IT system shall be considered a mission-critical IT system as defined by the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) (USD(C)).) A "Mission-Critical Information Technology System" has the same meaning as a "Mission-Critical Information System."
Mission-Essential Information System. A system that meets the definition of "information system" in Reference (v), that the acquiring Component Head or designee determines is basic and necessary for the accomplishment of the organizational mission. (The designation of mission-essential shall be made by a Component Head, a Combatant Commander, or their designee. A financial management IT system shall be considered a mission-essential IT system as defined by the USD(C).) A "Mission-Essential Information Technology System" has the same meaning as a "Mission-Essential Information System."
