Keeping Government Secrets: A Pocket Guide On The State-Secrets Privilege, The Classified Information Procedures Act, And Classified Information Security Officers

As courts adjudicate cases involving classified information, they must protect government secrets. The Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA) provides procedures for protecting classified information in criminal prosecutions. Similar procedures are used in civil cases. The courts are assisted in their protection of government secrets by classified information security officers provided by a small office in the Department of Justice's Management Division called the Litigation Security Group.
