Separating Classified and Unclassified Information
The RED/BLACK concept requires electrical and electronic circuits, components, and systems which handle encrypted ciphertext information (BLACK) be separated from those which handle unencrypted classified plaintext information (RED). The red/black concept can operate on the level of circuits, components, equipment, systems, or the physical areas in which they are contained. See Tempest (codename).

Famous quotes containing the words separating, classified and/or information:
“To write the lives of the great in separating them from their works necessarily ends by above all stressing their pettiness, because it is in their work that they have put the best of themselves.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
“From a hasty glance through the various tests I figure it out that I would be classified in Group B, indicating “Low Average Ability,” reserved usually for those just learning to speak the English Language and preparing for a career of holding a spike while another man hits it.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“The real, then, is that which, sooner or later, information and reasoning would finally result in, and which is therefore independent of the vagaries of me and you. Thus, the very origin of the conception of reality shows that this conception essentially involves the notion of a COMMUNITY, without definite limits, and capable of a definite increase of knowledge.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
