Sending data in the clear (unencrypted email) may allow an attacker to intercept personally identifiable information (PII) and alter emails. Although the probability of occurrence is low, it is recommended that any disclosure of sensitive PII occur in a more secure manner. If you don't have access to DoD email encryption, we recommend that you use the hotline web site, which uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to protect communications on the Internet.
