Shielded Enclosures
Shielded enclosures are primarily used for the same type of installation as a SCIF. The additional security requirements for a shielded enclosure versus a SCIF are determined by the intensity of the threat. Shielded enclosures are usually installed in communication control centers and highly sensitive data centers located outside the continental United States (OCONUS), and in areas of the world determined to be in involved in businesses or activities that will jeopardize United States national security interests. Such installations can most often be found in such locations as United States Embassies, Consulates, Chancery buildings, and other official United States government buildings located around the world.
