Camp Crame, Quezon City SEPTEMBER 01, 2014 PNP MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR Number 2014- 033

REVISED GUIDELINES IN THE CERTIFICATION OF PNP INFORMATION SYSTEMS

1. REFERENCES:

a. Command Memorandum Circular No. 2014-11 entitled: “DICTM Certification

for PNP Information Systems” dated March 13, 2014. b. Memorandum Circular No. 2010-016 dated August 26, 2010 entitled

“Consultation of all Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Matters to DICTM”; and

c. PNP Patrol Plan 2030 as enhanced by the Strategy Focus – “CODE-P: 2013 and Beyond.”

2. RATIONALE:

Attuned to the call of information age, the Philippine National Police has recognized the importance of Information and Systems in the routine performance of its mandates. To support this, an Information Systems Strategic Plan (ISSP) for 2015 to 2017 (Annex “A”) was crafted to address the PNP‟s ICT strategic thrusts and programs. In compliance with the lSSP, the PNP has identified critical Information Systems (IS) to be used throughout the organization. Unfortunately, not all of these IS were referred to the Directorate for Information and Communications Technology Management (DICTM) for review, evaluation, and certification. As provided for in No. 4 para b of PNP MC No. 2010-016l, these Information Systems should have been referred to DICTM to ensure compliance with the standards and controls of the organization. This referral would also ensure that all IS would complement the ICT initiatives of the PNP. The non-adherence to the policy (MC No. 2010-016) has resulted in the development of IS that were redundant and had different or incompatible platforms (backend/databases).

From a strategic point-of-view, all these issues complicate the systems and data

integration processes. Hence, with this perspective established, the DICTM sees the need to establish standards for IS in order to allow data compatibility across different IS that would, in turn, produce high-value business intelligence outputs.

Furthermore, the PNP is yet to institutionalize a mechanism to recognize

accepted Information System Proposals and accepted PNP Information Systems (software/applications) that would be recognized across the entire PNP organization. The recognition of such standard PNP Information System Proposals and already established IS shall ensure that all PNP units nationwide would have the same software (and software complements).

Optimistically, with these safeguards in place, the PNP shall no longer contend

with IS that lack technical support, has no documentation, and confers no accountability on the part of the developers of the IS.

3. PURPOSE:

This PNP Memorandum Circular (PNPMC) prescribes the operational and

administrative guidelines, processes, and procedures to be followed and observed in the conduct of Information System Proposal Review (ISPR) for Information System Proposals and Information System Review (ISR) for Developed Information Systems.

Page 28: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 28

The ISPR shall be a requirement for the grant of a Certificate of Recognition for Information System Proposals (CR-ISP). The ISR on the other hand shall, be a requirement for the grant of a Certificate of Compliance for Developed Information Systems (CC-DIS). Both CR-ISP and CC-DIS shall be issued by DICTM upon minimal compliance to standards set for the respective review.

The Philippine National Police through its designated Offices/Units and by

authority of this MC, shall ensure that the development of IS complies with established standards in data structure, organizational plans and processes, as well as ascertains operational compatibility with other existing IS. These standards and processes shall be institutionalized to guarantee adherence to the PNP Information System Strategic Plan (PNP ISSP) and promote maximum utilization, interoperability and sustainability of IS.

This PNPMC supersedes CMC Number 2014-11 dated March 13, 2014.

4. DEFINITION OF TERMS:

a. Certificates of Compliance for Developed Information Systems (CC-DIS) – A document awarded to the proponent of a developed information system recognizing that the subject IS has satisfactorily complied with the standard set for such developed IS.

b. Certificate of Recognition for Information System Proposals (CR-ISP) – A document awarded to the proponent of an information system proposal recognizing that the subject IS has satisfactorily complied with the standards set for such information system proposal. The certificate of recognition is the first step towards compliance; once the IS is fully developed, a Certificate of Compliance is awarded upon compliance to consequent standards.

c. Developed Information System – an IS that has already been developed either for acceptance, or in the case of existing PNP IS, is already being used by the PNP.

e. DICTM Certification – the process of review and evaluation of IS and conferment of DICTM Certification as proof of approval and permit to implement and operate the IS.

f. Functional Nature of Information System – Determines the classification of an IS based on its function and use in the PNP. This terminology shall be used in the determination on whether or not IS have the similar functions or accomplish the same objective.

g. Information and Communications Technology (ICT) – The totality of the electronic means employed to systematically collect, process, store, present,

Page 29: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 29

and share information to end-users in support of their activities. It consists of computer systems, office systems, consumer electronics, and telecommunications technologies, as well as networked information infrastructure. The components of which include the telephone system, the Internet, fax machines, computers, and its accompanying methodologies, processes, rules, and conventions. It is also a combination of computer technology, microelectronics applications, and communications information techniques and methods. It encompasses the use of computers, data communications, office systems technologies, as well as any technology that deals with modern day application of computing and/or communication. It can also be seen as the marriage of information technology and data communication.

h. Information System (IS) – a system of major processes or operations which facilitates the storage, processing, retrieval and generation of information for decision-making, planning, controlling and ,monitoring purposes. It also refers to a group of related processes (manual or computerized) designed to generate information for the exclusive support of a major functional area of an organization (e.g. Personnel Management Information System, Logistics Management Information System, Financial Management Information System, etc).

2. PURPOSES:

This letter of Instructions (LOI) provides the guidelines and procedures for the implementation of a PNP-wide Document Management System (DMS). This system shall provide a mechanism for the automated archiving, searching, retrieval and updating of all PNP documents. The DMS shall enable the PNP to retrieve and reproduce documents in a timely and responsive manner. These documents shall be stored in electronic or digital formats and shall be made available to users with corresponding privileges as determined by the owners originator of documents. Electronic documents produced shall form part of a central documents repository identified here onwards as the PNP e-Library.

3. SITUATION:

As the PNP continues to evolve as an organization, the amount of information that it processes and produces grows exponentially with it. As a matter of policy, the PNP institutionalizes all information with proper documentation. All the documents gathered throughout the existence of the PNP represent a huge potential in terms of institutional memory. But this potential loses value if the PNP could not retrieve the right document when the need arises. Information is a resource of the same importance to good management as other standard resources like people, money and facilities. The information resources of the PNP must therefore be managed as a valuable asset in forms that allow them to be shared, managed and reused. Appropriate document management is a vital aspect of maintain and enhancing the value of this asset.

Since the enactment of the PNP to date, there are undetermined number of

written policies standards, procedures and guidelines pertaining to human resource intelligence aspects and other functions mandated to the PNP. As time passes, these documents have been filed and kept in physical storage and more often than not, these have been poorly indexed, If at all. This state of document management causes problems for the organization. All too often, time and resources are wasted in the

Page 44: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 44

search of documents not to mention the inconvenience it presents for personnel who require them.

4. MISSION:

To establish and institutionalize a Document Management System (DMS) that shall be the central repository of all documents received, processed, produced and published by the PNP. It shall provide a mechanism that will enable the PNP to digitize, archive, search, retrieve and update documents relating to administrative, operational, investigative and strategic functions of the PNP.

5. OBJECTIVES:

a. To create digital records of all PNP issuances, circulars, rules and regulations, orders, directives and make them accessible via web applications in a controlled and secured environment;

b. To establish internal mechanisms and strategies that will create, manage and retain web-based records for as long as those records are required;

c. To enable the PNP to access the digital documents easily and comprehensively;

d. To support policy formulation and decision-making of the PNP by providing ready and downloadable references;

e. To provide security of records in the event of a disaster or other fortuitous events;

f. To provide evidence of records in the context of its activity and contribute to the identity and collective memory of the PNP;

g. To educate all PNP personnel on all policies and guidelines by merely searching the site; and

h. To support the PICE program of the PNP and provide current information to students of PNP career courses and other institutions and agencies.

6. EXECUTION:

a. Conceptual of Operations

As the PNP is confronted with the personnel problem of data retrieval and

records mismanagement, the DMS shall provide a mechanism to digitally archive PNP documents and records. The DMS shall enable the fast retrieval of records and documents in an efficient and reliable manner. It shall employ an easy-to-use, effective and flexible search engine capable of searching through document content as well as picture images for text inputs to the system shall be digital/soft copies of PNP documents and records. Should system there be hard copies to be encoded, the DMS shall utilize documents scanners to convert such to digital portable data formats (PDF). With the consolidation of digital copies of PNP records, the DMS shall be able to form a digital library of all these documents. Consequent, searches and queries for these documents on the DMS shall provide both internal and external stakeholders a more secured, accessible and user-friendly records management and retrieval process. This translates to a more productive and innovative workforce as well as better public service through access of reliable related information.

To fully execute this, an e-Records Management Committee shall be

created at the NHQ level to supervise, monitor and evaluate the operations of the DMS. The e-Records Management Committee shall be composed of the following:

1) TCDS – e-Records Overall Supervisor 2) TDICTM – e-Records Assistant Supervisor 3) D ITMS – Technical Administrator – (systems, database network, web) 4) TS – Office Primarily Responsible (OPR) in the management of the

SUBJECT : LOI 40/2012 PNP e-Mail System TO : See Distribution DATE : OCT 08, 2012

1. REFERENCES: a. The Philippine E-Commerce Law – Republic Act No. 8792 “An Act Providing

for the Recognition and Use of Electronic Commercial and Non-Commercial Transactions, Penalties for Unlawful Use Thereof and Other Purposes;

b. National Computer Center Memorandum Circular 2003-01 “Guidelines on Compliance to e-Commerce Act (RA No. 8792) and Stage 2 and 3 of the UN-ASPA Five Stages of e-Government; and

c. Chief, PNP Letter of Instruction 03/09 (Spider-Web) dated November 11, 2009.

2. PURPOSES:

This letter of Instructions (LOI) provides the guidelines and procedures for the

creation, management and maintenance of a secured e-mail system using the official PNP domain (pnp.gov.ph). This system shall provide a web-based electronic mail to be used by the PNP from the National Headquarters down to the police stations. The purpose of this policy is to ensure the proper use of the PNP e-mail system and ensure that users are aware of the acceptable use of the PNP e-mail system.

3. SITUATION:

Recognizing the efforts of the Philippine government to take advantage of

existing ICT advancements as manifested in the e-Governance initiatives, the PNP has taken steps to contribute to this endeavor. As one of these steps, the PNP has established an official e-mail system under the pnp.gov.ph domain. This system was developed and is being maintained by the Information Technology Management Service (ITMS). The existing e-mail services however has been found to have limitations on accounts, storage and system performance. This predicament has prompted other PNP units/offices to utilize public e-mail services as a mode of electronic communications with no semblance of legitimacy or standard.

With this, the establishment and use of an efficient organization-wide e-mail

service would not only contribute to an efficient means of data transmission within the organization, but will also promote the web identity of the PNP as a business organization.

4. MISSION:

To establish and institutionalize a secured and official e-mail system of the P under the pnp.gov.ph domain.

5. OBJECTIVES:

a. Establish an Official e-mail system for the PNP using the pnp.gov.ph

domain;

Page 52: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 52

b. Set procedures that will be followed by e-mail account users or operators regarding the creation, usage and deactivation of an official secured PNP e-mail accounts;

c. Ensure the proper turn-over of e-mail accounts created for official communication;

d. Remind the users/operators of security issues, that information sent via e-mail are vulnerable to snooping or prying, hijacking and other malicious activities of the PNP or of the state in furtherance of their personal or organization objectives; and

e. Designate tasks and responsibilities to certain offices/units of the PNP.

6. EXECUTION:

a. Conceptual of Operations Considering that e-mail messaging is a vital means of communication for

the PNP, services related to this must be considered critical. Data in the form of video, audio, image and text sent via e-mail should be transmitted in secure manner. This is imperative as content may contain sensitive information which ranges from police reports, journals, to even update of information systems. This mechanism essentially bridges the local police units to the regional/national offices, and vice-versa.

The PNP e-mail system will be established under the sub-domain

http://mail.pnp.gov.ph using private hosting services, for a virtual private server (VPS) capable of providing reliable service and support to the PNP. Each PNP unit shall be assigned a unique official unit e-mail account on which all official communications shall be transmitted. The implementation on the use of these official e-mail accounts shall be done in two phases. Issuance of PNP e-mail accounts for Phase 1 will initially cater the Command Group, Personal Staff, PROs and NSUs. Phase 2 will cover e-mail addresses for Provincial and Police Stations Nationwide. Upon implementation, all messages coming from these accounts shall be considered official communications and are subject to the existing policies on correspondence. Safeguards shall be put in place to ensure the high availability of this e-mail service. In the same manner, policies shall be put in place to establish accountability and provide for the application of best practices. b. Tasks:

1. Directorial Staff, Command Group, PROs, NSUs and Personal Staff

a) Shall be responsible for the dissemination of their respective e-mail address to all offices/units of the PNP as well as entities outside the organization;

OFFICE OF THE CHIEF, PNP Camp Crame, Quezon City

DATE: JUNE 13, 2013 COMMAND MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR No. 29-13 (PNP Telephone Directory Android Application) SUBJECT : Guidelines and Procedures for the Implementation of the PNP

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 87

5. SITUATION:

In a day and age when a country such as the Philippines is in the verge of development, increasing pressure is exerted on the Government to provide competent and reliable public service. This demand grows exponentially as more and more of the citizenry is being exposed to the paradigm of good governance. This, not to mention the fact that technology is constantly evolving and improving is all but a wakeup call for the Government to take action. The PNP, as a dynamic law enforcement institution has not turned a deaf ear to this call for institutional reform. On the contrary, it has remained receptive to improvements and has institutionalized policies and programs that encourage a proactive approach to developing tools to better deliver law enforcement services.

Crime Response is one of the mandated responsibilities of the Philippine

National Police (PNP). To improve on this service, the PNP has been continuously improving Police Crime Response by: improving mobility, police presence and communications. Even with these implements available, a critical factor remains elusive for the organization, that is, the immediate reporting of crimes. Based on experience, the major cause of delay in police response times is the time lost in acquiring the emergency contact numbers of the PNP. Police Response time has greatly improved but the biggest factor that affects it is timely reporting of crime incidents by the community.

6. MISSION:

The PNP Telephone Directory Android Application (PNP Tel Dir App) will bridge the digital divide and gap in communication between PNP Offices/Units and the community and will serve as a tool for communication between PNP Offices/Units and the Community in support to the strategic focus of the PNP for 2013 and beyond. Quick and easy coordination between PNP Offices/Units will be facilitated. The application shall empower the community to actively participate in law enforcement activities such as crime and incident reporting; crime prevention; and as a tool to promote police community relations. The application shall be available in a public website such as the PNP (www.pnp.gov.ph) and Android Application Stores such as Google Play (www.googleplay.com).

7. OBJECTIVES:

The application contains telephone numbers of front desk services of all PNP Offices/ Units from the National Headquarters, Police Regional Offices (PROs), Police Provincial/City Offices (PPOs/CPOs, Police Stations) and other Law Enforcement Agencies. This virtually allows users to have a law enforcement telephone directory in their mobile devices. As a result, the application minimizes the usage of its bulky printed counterpart. The contact numbers can be called/dialed directly from the application thus making calls to these offices/units quick and easy. Users are also assured of the validity of the Telephone Numbers in the Application. The use of the application would enable the PNP:

a. To create a digital file of PNP Telephone Directory that will be used via android devices and can be readily and easily downloaded/copied from public sources;

b. To establish external mechanisms and strategies that will enable the public to support the PNP in crime prevention;

c. To be more accessible to the public; and d. To support the PNP Strategic Focus “CODE-P: 2013 and Beyond” that

ensures excellence in the performance of mandated tasks through the optimum use of resources.

8. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES:

An application for Android Devices which will be able to call/dial the telephone number right from the application itself thus lessening the need to search thru bulky printed Telephone Directories then typing the number in a mobile devices before it can be called or dialed.

II. BACK GROUND

The PNP Telephone Directory was conceptualized by PSSUPT NAPOLEON C

TAAS then CDS of ITMS, acting on the challenge of Director, DICTM to ITMS during its Anniversary to also look into developing application for mobile devices. The Systems Management Division (SMD-ITMS) thru its Division Chief NUP Sarah Palisoc directed PCINSP JUANITO B. GACES, Jr IT Officer of SMD to research and develop the application.

PCSUPT ROGELIO M. DAMAZO, Director ITMS provided logistical and fund

support for the project. An initial Beta (Test) Version was developed under SMD-ITMS and was refined by PSSUPT TAAS and NUP PALISOC until a Beta Version 5 was completed.

With the detail of PCINSP GACES with SIMD-DICTM, the application was

enhanced and a final Beta Version was developed. The same version was subjected to Field Testing at PRO3 RHQ and Angeles City Police Office with External Stake Holders (Community) as guests last February 26 to March1, 2013.

The application can be formally launched after validation of telephone numbers

of CES.

a. Privilege means, in the context of this policy, that the Philippine National Police

is providing the opportunity to its PNP personnel to use government property for authorized/official use in the optimal performance of their official duties and functions. However, this policy does not confer a right to use government office equipment for non-official business/transactions nor does the privilege extend to modifying such equipment, including loading personal software or making configuration changes. Simply put, use of government equipment, facilities or property is a mere privilege on their part and a pure benefaction on the part of the government;

b. Government Information and Communications Technology Equipment,

Facilities or Property includes but is not limited to: computers and related peripheral equipment and software, library resources, telephones to include cellular, facsimile machines, photocopiers, office supplies, internet connectivity and access to internet services, and E-mail of the Philippine National Police;

for personal needs even if said use does not substantially interfere with official business and involves minimal additional expense to the government.

b. Personal use of government office ICT equipment even if the same takes place

during the employee‟s non-work time shall not be tolerated. PNP employees cannot invoke any privilege to use government office ICT equipment for non-government purposes as the same defeats efficiency in the use of limited public resources.

5. GUIDELINES:

a. Use of Equipment and Services

1) PNP personnel are NOT authorized to use Government Office ICT equipment

even if said personal use does not result in substantial loss of employee productivity or interference with official duties. Moreover, such personal use though incurring only minimal or negligible additional expense to the Government is prohibited in areas such as:

a) Communications infrastructure costs e.g. telephone charges,

telecommunications traffic, etc.; b) Use of consumables in limited or negligible amounts e.g. paper, ink,

toner, etc.; c) General wear and tear on equipment; d) Data storage on storage devices; and e) Transmission impacts with moderate E-mail message sizes such as E-

mails with small attachments. b. Inappropriate Personal Use

PNP personnel must conform to a norm of conduct compatible with their standing as members of the law enforcement community. As such, they are expected to conduct themselves professionally in the workplace and to refrain from using government office equipment for activities that are inappropriate.

Misused or inappropriate personal use of government office ICT equipment

includes but is not limited to: 1) Any personal use that could cause congestion, delay, or disruption of service

to any Government system or equipment. For example video, sound or other large file attachments can degrade the performance of the entire network;

2) Using the Government‟s ICT systems as a staging ground or platform to gain

unauthorized access to other systems;

Page 96: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 96

explicit or sexually oriented materials; 6) The creation, download, viewing, storage, copying, or transmission of

materials related to illegal gambling, illegal weapons, terrorist activities, and any other illegal activities or activities otherwise prohibited, when the creation, download, viewing, storage, copying, or transmission of the same is not part of his job description;

support of other outside employment or business activity (e.g. consulting for pay, sales or administration of business transactions, sale of goods or services);

8) Engaging in any outside fund-raising activity, endorsing any product or

service, participating in any lobbying activity, or engaging in any prohibited partisan political activity;

11) Any type of inappropriate or unauthorized use which is similar or analogous to any of the foregoing.

c. Proper Representation It is the responsibility of PNP personnel to ensure that they are not giving the false impression that they are acting in an official capacity when they are using government ICT office equipment for non-government purposes. Thus, regardless of the intention, simulated official use of government property which inures to the personal benefit of any government employee is prohibited.

d. Access Management

PNP personnel have no inherent right of access to, or use of Government ICT office equipment, facilities, and/or property for personal use.

e. Privacy Expectations

PNP personnel do not have a right, nor should they have an expectation, of

privacy while using any government ICT office equipment at any time, including accessing the internet, and using E-mail. By using Government ICT office equipment, PNP personnel imply their consent to disclosing the contents of any files or information maintained or passed-through Government office equipment.

1) By using government ICT office equipment, consent to monitoring and

recording is implied with or without cause, including (but not limited to) accessing the internet/intranet or using E-mail. Any use of Government communications resources

Sanctions as provided for under applicable laws, rules and regulations including NAPOLCOM Memorandum Circular No. 2007-001 (Uniform Rules of Procedure before the Administrative Disciplinary Authorities and the Internal Affairs Service of the Philippine National Police) shall govern any of the prohibited acts enumerated above.

7. RESCISSION:

3. SCOPE AND DELIMITATION:

a. This memorandum circular applies all the provincial and city police offices and police stations, to include Police Community Precincts (PCPs) nationwide.

b. PNP members may be allowed to create personal accounts to these social

networking sites, provided that no official information relating to the PNP shall be posted.

b. Inherent to this mandate is the function of DICTM to ensure that all units of

the PNP adhere to a uniform standard in the utilization of ICT resources, particularly the use of social networking site in promoting a PNP unit or station to its intended clienteles, providing information about missing persons, suspects, and wanted persons and soliciting information from the public.

c. In addition, the PNP Letter of Instruction 03/09 (Spider Web) requires that

all PNP units from NHQ down to police stations shall create, develop, administer and maintain an official WEBSITE following the standard convention of domain names to provide current updates of information and services to the public and to the PNP personnel.

Hence the purpose of this Memorandum Circular is to provide guidelines for the

recording, uploading, posting or dissemination through ICT devices of materials considered as official and those that are not official but may contain information detrimental to the image and integrity of the PNP organization.

Governing Security of Classified Matters in all Philippine National Police Offices and Units”.

2. PURPOSE:

This Letter of Instructions (LOI) provides the guidelines and procedures for the creation usage, turn-over and deactivation of free web-based electronic mail (e-mail) officially used by every Office/Unit of the PNP from the National Headquarters down to the police stations.

3. SITUATION:

The PNP has an official e-mail system under the domain @pnp.gov.ph that was developed and being maintained by the Information Technology Management Service (ITMS). However, the system has limited storage capacity which could not accommodate the storage requirements of the vast number of PNP Units and Offices. Also, the system‟s connection to the Internet is very slow especially when several users utilize the systems simultaneously. These challenges may be resolved if the PNP has its own e-mail facility as proposed in the PNP Data Warehouse Phase 2.

Realizing the definite importance of e-mail communications, the different PNP

Offices/Units have created their own e-mail accounts through free web-based e-mail systems hosted by foreign entities like Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Hotmail, and others.

This resulted, however, in several problems particularly in the management of e-

mail accounts and security of information transmitted via e-mail.

Page 121: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 121

In the management of e-mail accounts, it has been observed in the past that when an officer is transferred from one unit to another, he carries with him the details (especially the password) of the e-mail account that was created for the official communication of his previous office. Hence, the concerned Office/Unit faces a dilemma because it could no longer access all communications contained in the said e-mail account. In addition, it can no longer send or receive e-mail communications.

As a remedy, the concerned Office/Unit creates another account as replacement

to the previous one. It became a usual practice that every time an e-mail account becomes inaccessible, the concerned Office/Unit creates a new one. As a result, the concerned Office/Unit ends up with multiple e-mail accounts that confuse the sending Offices/Units. These are also cases that personnel of the concerned Office/Unit are confused which e-mail account to use for sending or receiving official communications. As a result, the multiple e-mail accounts create confusion to the sending Offices/Units as well as to the concerned office.

With regard to the issue of information security, it must be emphasized that the

free web-based e-mail systems are hosted by server machines in other locations, usually in other countries. The electronic form of sensitive information traveling via telecommunication infrastructures is vulnerable to snooping hijacking and other malicious activities by people who have interest against the PNP or the state. Likewise the information stored in the server machines of e-mail hosting providers could be accessed, legally or illegally by people who maintain the servers. This situation therefore effectively compromises the security of sensitive classified and other information produced and maintained by the PNP.

4. MISSION:

The PNP shall undertake actions to ensure the proper use of e-mail systems in support of the mission and functions of the organization.

5. OBJECTIVES:

This LOI aims to achieve the following objectives: a. Set procedures for the creation, usage and deactivation of official e-mail

accounts that will be followed by e-mail account users or operators; b. Ensure the proper turn-over of e-mail accounts created for official

communication; c. Establish a common naming convention that would be followed by all PNP

Offices/Units regardless of the e-mail system (Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Hotmail, etc.) used in crating and hosting the account;

d. Remind the users/operators that information sent via e-mail is vulnerable to

snooping or spying, hijacking, and other malicious activities by other persons who might have interest to know and meddle in the activities of the PNP or of the state in furtherance of their personal or organizational objectives; and

e. Designate tasks and responsibilities to certain Offices/Units of the PNP.

6. EXECUTION:

a. Concept of Operation

In today‟s environment, electronic mail or e-mail is considered one of the vital tools for most organizations as it can deliver significant business benefits when used appropriately. As a method of communication, it is quick, inexpensive and convenient. However, carelessness or negligence in using e-mail, particularly the free web-based e-mail services may result in potential problems

Page 122: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 122

such as leakage of sensitive information; propagation of viruses and other malicious software that would destroy the organization‟s data, networks and other ICT resources; and in extreme cases may lead to complaints or legal issues against the PNP or its personnel.

1) Creation of E-mail Account

All PNP Offices/Units specifically the Command Group, D-Staff, NSUs, PROs, PPOs, CPOs, CPSs, and MPSs are allowed, temporary, to create e-mail accounts to be used by the Office/Unit in its official communication using any of the free Internet-based e-mail services such as Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Hotmail or other mail service providers provided that the policies, guidelines, and rules and regulations of the PNP concerning protection of information and similar assets and resources shall not be violated.

There shall be at most, three (3) designated users or operators of each e-mail account who shall be responsible for its usage and maintenance.

a) Naming Convention

For uniformity and easy recall, the corresponding naming convention as shown in Annex A )E-mail Naming Convention) shall be followed by the e-mail account creator. b) Strictly Only One Account per Office/Unit, Division or Section

There must be only one active official account per Office/Unit, Branch, Division or Section as more accounts would sow confusion not only to the sending Offices/Units but also to the personnel of the concerned Office/Unit.

2) Usage

The designated user or operator of an e-mail account named after

the Office/Unit, Branch, Division, or Section of the PNP shall adhere to the following rules:

In case an encryption method is not available, shall

Page 123: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 123

ensure that the document or file is password-protected prior to its attachment to the e-mail. g) Shall take appropriate action to protect downloaded messages, documents or files that contain sensitive information; and h) Shall not disclose any information contained in the e-mail communication except to his immediate superior or other concerned authorities of the Office/Unit.

3) Turn-Over of E-mail Account

A PNP member who was designated as e-mail user or operator of the concerned Office/Unit and is applying for transfer or retirement from the service shall be required to turn-over the e-mail account details to the Admin Officer of the concerned Office/Unit. The e-mail account details shall contain the following information:

a) Complete E-mail Address; b) Name of [Section/Division/MPS/CPS/CPO/PPO] and Office/Unit

that uses the E-mail account; c) Rank and Full Name of the Head of Office using the E-mail; d) Recent Password; and e) Date Created

placed inside a security envelope.

After successfully logging in, the Admin Officer must immediately change the password without the knowledge of the outgoing personnel. The account details shall be immediately updated and placed again inside a security envelope for turn-over to the new e-mail user or operator.

In the Offices/Units where there is a duly designated IT Officer, the

Admin Officer, may delegate to the former the task of updating the e-mail account details. 4) Deactivation

An e-mail account that needs to be deactivated shall be properly

communicated to the Admin Officer, Prior to the deactivation, all official communications in the mailbox that have long-term business or historical value shall be downloaded and printed (if possible) for safekeeping. Destruction of any information, whether printed or not, should be accordance with the guidelines and procedures set by the Directorate for Intelligence (DI).

After an e-mail account is deactivated, the account owner shall immediately advise other PNP Offices/Units of the fact and the replacement account, in case one was created.

2. Preventive Maintenance Procedure

a. Cleaning the Computer’s CPU Box

Dusts may clog in your computer‟s CPU box, particularly at the power supply and

cooling fans. When clogged with dusts, the fans will have difficulty in rotating and may slow down or stop that can cause your computer to overheat.

To dust-off the CPU box, follow the steps below: 1) Turn off the computer and unplug it from the power outlet 2) Remove the case lid. 3) Using a can of compressed air blow the dust from the power supply through

the slit in the computer chassis (CPU box) from inside out so the dust will exit at the back. Use short bursts and keep the can upright and a few inches from the hardware. Next, blow the dust from the intake fan and each of the exhaust fans. Blow out any other dust you see that has collected inside the computer. Also, be sure to blow the dust from the air vents on the case lid.

4) Check all the plugs and cables to make sure they are fixed firmly. 5) Re-assemble the case lid and plug your computer back into the power outlet.

Aside from removing the dust from the CPU box, it is also recommended that you check all the cables and connections to see if there is any that is loosened and needs to be fixed.

Page 134: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 134

b. Cleaning the Monitor 1) For Non-flat panel monitors

Use the monitor cleaning product (spray) and wiping cloth) that comes

with the computer packaging. Do not spray directly onto the monitor itself, instead, spray onto the cloth and then wipe the cloth over the screen or monitor cabinet.

Monitor cleaning products are commercially available be sure that the one

purchased is meant for the type of your monitor.

2) Flat panel monitors

These monitors usually have plastic screens and other components that can be damaged by cleaning products that use chemicals (benzene, thinner, ammonia, acetone), abrasives, or compressed air. To clean this kind of monitor, lightly dampen a soft, clean cloth with water, and use that to clean the screen. The monitor cabinet can be cleaned with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent.

c. Cleaning the Keyboard

Make sure your computer is turned off before you work on your keyboard.

You can use compressed air to blow debris out of your keyboard, or turn it

upside-down and shake it gently. Do not disassemble it. Cleaning materials such as pads or swabs that contain a cleaning liquid can be used on the keys and upper surface.

d. Cleaning the Mouse

Properly cleaning a mouse does not only avoid malfunction but will make it easier to use and prevent the cursor from “jumping around” on the screen due to dirty rollers.

1) For Mouse with ball/roller

a) Make sure the computer is turned off, b) Remove the mouse from the computer, c) Look for the product manual that comes with the mouse and follow the

instructions how to do disassembly; d) Clean the ball with clear tape; e) Check the rollers inside and scrape off any alien items using a

straightened paperclip; f) Hold it upside-down and shake out dusts, and g) Reassemble.

For more information, visit this website: http// www.wikihow.com/Clean-e-Mouse-Ball

2) For Optical Mouse

An optical mouse uses laser to track movement. It does not have a mouse ball or roller, hence, does not require the kind of cleaning that mouse with ball does. To clean it, simply wipe the glass on the bottom of the mouse that

Page 135: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 135

houses the laser using a smooth cloth (lightly dam the cloth when necessary to remove sticky dirt).

e. Running Disk Cleanup Utility

Use this procedure to clean a particular disk of the following unnecessary

files: Downloaded Program files, Temporary Internet, Offline webpages, Game Statistics Files, Recycle Bin, Setup Log Files, System error memory dump files, System error mini-dump files, Temporary files, Thumbnails, Per use archived Windows Error Report Files, Per use queued Windows Report Files and System archived Windows Error Report Files, in order to reclaim disk spaces used by them.

To do this, follow the steps below: 1) Open the Windows Explorer; 2) Right Click on the Letter of the Disk Drive that you want to clean; 3) Select Properties; 4) On the new screen, click the Disk Cleanup button; 5) Choose the types of unnecessary files that you wanted to get rid of by

clicking the corresponding check boxes; and 6) Click the Clean up system files button. Another way to do this procedure is to Click on Start ->Program-> Accessories -> System Tools -> Disk Clean-up. Note: You can further increase the available disk space in the computer by removing unnecessary program or application, particularly those that are that version” and have already expired. However, this may not be performed by a usual user if the computer is configured with restriction that prohibits access to program/application removal tool.

f. Running Disk Defragmenter

The Windows Disk defragmenter organizes files, and data into areas that helps the computer run smoothly. It moves the frequently used files to an easy access area and the least used files, to the opposite. It also gathers fragmented files and groups, them back together in short. Disk Defragmenter consolidates fragmented files on your computer‟s hard disk to improve system performance. Follow the steps below according to the operating system of your computer.

1. For windows XP

a) Open My Computer b) Right-click the local disk volume that you want to defragment and then

click Properties; c) On the Tools tab, click Defragment Now; and d) Click Defragment.

2. For Windows Vista

a) Go to Start Menu; b) Click All Programs; c) Click Accessories; d) Click System Tools; e) Choose Disk Defragmenter; and f) Click Defragment Now button.

Page 136: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 136

3. For Windows 7 a) Open Windows Explorer; b) Right click on the Letter of the Disk Drive to defragment; c) On the newly opened screen, click the Tools tab; d) Click the Defragment Now button; e) Click the Analyze Disk button to do some fragmentation analysis on the

disk; and f) Click the Defragment Disk to perform defragmentation.

g. Updating the Anti-virus and Running Virus Scan

Doing the virus scanning regularly will keep the computer safe from known viruses, worms. Trojan horses, and other malicious software. The steps depend on the anti-virus software installed in your computer. It is highly recommended to scan the computer at least once a week.

However, the anti-virus program may not be able to detect a new virus. The

reason for this is that, a new virus carries a signature which is not present in the old database used by the anti-virus software, hence detection is not possible. To help your anti-virus cope up with new viruses, upgrading its database is necessary at least weekly or, if possible, daily.

h. Updating the Operating System (OS)

Most operating systems require regular updating or installation of new

patches to secure identified vulnerabilities that may be compromised by viruses, worms and other security threats.

The steps needed to conduct OS update depend on what operating system is

installed in the computer. However, most latest versions of Windows, i.e., Windows Vista and Windows 7, have automatic OS update detector which prompts the user once new updates are available in the Internet site.

If you are using a different OS, please conduct its documentation or browse

the internet for more information.

3. Miscellaneous

Aside from conducting preventive maintenance procedures, the computer user or operator is required to follow certain precautionary steps to ensure the security of the computer and its stored data.

a. Basic Security Although, no one can secure a computer system completely, but chances of

attacks to computer system can be reduced if the user or operator follows certain security principles. Listed below are some of the guiding principles that a computer user or operation must bear in mind in order to protect the machine from external threats:

1) Use strong passwords for log-on screen, and change it regularly (monthly or

quarterly);

Page 137: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 137

2) DO NOT share your password to other users. If more users are required to operate the computer or have access to an application each should be given a user account and password.

3) Log-off from the active mode or activate the Screensaver with password

protection before leaving the machine. 4) Regularly check if the computer is affected by a virus, spyware and/or

adware by regularly using the virus and malware scan features of the anti-virus system;

5) Regularly update the operating system and all other programs like Adobe,

Internet browser (such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, etc.) and other applications;

6) Regularly back up important files; 7) Use encryption techniques in transmitting sensitive information either

through e-mail or LAN communication; 8) If possible, use firewall and intrusion detection systems; 9) Turn off your system or disconnect from the internet when not in use; 10) Ensure the physical security of all hardware used; and 11) Be aware of current security threats, vulnerabilities and attack techniques.

Consult your IT Officer for more information about these.

b. Data Backup Checklist 1) Back u important documents, photos, videos, email messages, etc. to CD,

DVD, or another external disk at regular intervals. When creating back-ups; it is not recommended to use thump drive (USB drive) or flash card as these devices are easily destructible;

2) Keep multiple backup copies of important data; 3) Use encryption techniques to protect backup data; 4) If available, use the automated backup feature in the program or application is

manually creating backups may result to human error; 5) Keep your backup in a safe place, and 6) Verify your backup process for its effectiveness.

c. Physical Security

1) Minimize the amount of paper and sensitive information left on desks after

performing data encoding report preparation or other similar tasks; 2) Lock these documents in cabinets; 3) Survey the building and deal with obvious problems; 4) Use strong locks for doors and windows; 5) If not officially required, do not bring home office laptops and other mobile

devices that contain sensitive data or information; and 6) If not in use, make sure that the laptop is properly turned off and place it

inside of a secured cabinet.

and utilizing the centralized electronic storage facility; and b. Designate tasks and responsibilities to certain Offices/Units of the PNP.

Page 153: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 153

6. EXECUTION: a. Concept of Operation

For faster information dissemination and work collaboration, the Command

Group, Directorial Staff and other PNP Offices/Units based on Camp Crame must exert all efforts to connect their respective offices into the data network.

1) File Server

There shall be a file server that will be installed in the data network

interconnecting the Command Group, Directorial Staff and other Offices/ Units in Camp Crame which shall be housed at the ITMS. A file server is a computer that facilitates the disk/storage space for electronic folders that will contain files shared over the data network. It also implements access controls/restrictions to the aforementioned resources.

2) Main Shared Folder

Each of the Command Group, Directorial Staff and other Offices/Units

based in Camp Crame shall be given an electronic folder in the file server. This shall be considered as the “main shared folder‖ of the concerned Office/Unit. The main shared folder shall be managed by their respective File Services Administrator (FSA).

3) Public and Private Folders

Within the main shared folder the FSA must create two kinds of electronic

sub-folders 1) a public folder which can be accessed (read-only) by all offices/units connected in the data network, and 2) a private folder which can be accessed only by certain offices/units or authorized individuals to be determined by the concerned Office/Unit.

All electronic files that are for dissemination to or consumption of all

offices/units shall be placed into the public folder. This way all the offices/units will be knowledgeable about the information contained in the shared filed and may work collaboratively on a file that needs actions.

4) The File Services Administrator (FSA)

Every Office/Unit shall designate two (2) PNP members who shall act as

and FSA and alternate FSA respectively. The tasks of an FSA are enumerated under item b.8) of this Section (Tasks).

5) Request for Main Shared Folder

By default, the Command Group and D-Staff will be created with their

respective main share folder in the central file server. Other office/units based in Camp Crame that are connected to the data network may request for the creation of their respective main shared folder.

All requests for shared folders shall be put in writing and submitted to

ITMS (Attn: Network Storage Administrator) by the concerned Office/Unit. The request shall be endorsed by the Head of the concerned Office/Unit and shall contain the following required information:

Page 154: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 154

a) Full name, contact number and names of two (2) persons as the designated File Services Administrator (FSA) and alternated FSA of the shared folder; and

b) Purpose of the shared folder. Once the request is approved, the FSA shall coordinate personally with

the Network Storage Administrator (NSA) of ITMS for the release of password and other account settings used to access and utilize the shared main folder.

6) File share quotas/limits

A file share quota is the amount of disk/storage space that a user can

utilize in the central file server. To manage available disk space and ensure equitable availability of computing resources, the following default limits shall apply to all file shares:

a) Office file share (main shared folder): maximum of 10 GB b) Personal file share maximum of 500 MB

Modifications to increase the quotas will be reviewed on a case-to-case

basis. Request to share quota adjustment must be endorsed by the Head of the concerned Office and submitted in written to ITMS (Attn: NSA) containing the following required information:

a) Reason for quota modification; b) Requested amount of quota modification; and c) Term of quota modification (if temporary)

7) File Server Security

The file server/s shall be designed to provide users with a secured,

backed-up space, to store data and files. It should be much more secure than storing files and data on one‟s computer‟s local hard drive. It must be configured to be as secure and reliable as possible. Its hard drives shall be set up in a replicated mode (called a RAID), which ensures that, even in the event of a hard disk failure no data is lost.

8) Prohibited Acts

To ensure that the centralized network storage facility shall normally

operate under its intended purposes, all PNP personnel and other concerned individuals are prohibited to:

a) Reveal passwords or otherwise permitting the use by others (by

intent or negligence) of personal accounts for computer and network access;

b) Use of access restricted PNP computer resources or electronic information without or beyond one‟s level of authorization;

Page 161: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 161

The international radio communication language is English except in

cases where you are licensed for to speak in some other language. Using the radio is not like talking on the phone, it is not a two-way

communication, meaning you cannot speak and listen at the same time or break into the conversation. NEVER interrupt if you hear other people talking. Patiently wait until their conversation is finished unless it is an emergency, in which case you must inform the other parties that you have a very urgent emergency message. Do not respond to others‟ calls if you aren‟t sure it is for your. Never transmit sensitive, confidential, financial and military information in a radio communication, it could be heard by anyone on the same frequency.

2) Always perform radio checks and ensure that your radio is in good

working condition. Ensure that the battery is charged and the power is on. Keep the volume

high enough to be able to hear any call outs and regularly make radio checks with other stations to make sure everything is working just fine.

3) Memorize the call signs and locations of radio stations and other persons

to whom you may communicate. In radio communication you are not called by your name. Everybody has

their own unique call sign. Watch out if you hear any unauthorized or unknown call sign communicating on the network and report immediately to the radio room.

4) Think before you speak.

Decide on what you are going to transmit and to whom it is meant for.

Make it as concise, precise and clear as possible and avoid using long and complicated sentences. Do not use abbreviations or spoken phrases. If necessary, write down your message before transmitting it. If your message is long, divide it into understandable short messages.

5) To call a station, first listen to ensure the channel is clear for you.

Press the PTT (Pust-To-Talk) button and after 2 seconds say the

recipient‟s call sign twice followed by “THIS IS” and your call sign. Convey your message once the receiver replies and the communication is established. A typical radio conversation would be as follows:

You: Papa November One, Papa November One, This is Papa

November Nine, Message Over! Recipient: Papa November Nine, This is Papa November One, Go

Ahead, Over! You: (Your now say your message), Acknowledge, Over! Recipient: Wilco (means your message was received and will act

upon), Over! Your: This is Papa November Nine, Out!

Note how in the beginning and the end of the transmission you pronounce your call sign so that people know who is talking. If you have an emergency message and need to interrupt others‟ conversations, wait and listen until you hear “Over”, Press PTT and call (“BREAK, BREAK, BREAK”), This is (your

Page 162: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 162

call sign), I have emergency message for (recipients’ call sign), Do you copy, Over!”).

6) Follow the four golden rules of Radio conversation.

a) Clarity. Your message should be clear enough. Speak slower than

normal speed so that people can understand you better, do not shout. b) Simplicity. Your message should be simple for everyone to

understand. c) Brevity. Your message should be precise and to the point. d) Security. Follow the security procedures. Do not transmit confidential

information on the radio.

7) Memorize the phonetic alphabet and pronunciation of numeric digits as you will have to use it in your conversations. Following is a table showing the international phonetics used for the

alphabet. A – ALPHA J – JULIET S – SIERRA

B – BRAVO K – KILO T – TANGO

C – CHARLIE L – LIMA U – UNIFORM

D – DELTA M – MIKE V – VICTOR

E – ECHO N – NOVEMBER W – WHISKEY

F – FOXTROT O – OSCAR X – X-RAY

G – GOLF P – PAPA Y – YANKEE

H – HOTEL Q – QUEBEC Z – ZULU

I – INDIA R – ROMEO

Likewise, the pronunciation of numeric digits shall be as follows: Digit Pronunciation

1 WUN – with strong W and N

2 TOO – with a strong and long OO

3 TH-R-EE – with slightly rolling R and long EE

4 FO-WER – with a long O and strong W and final R

5 FIE-YIV – with long I changing to short Y and V

6 SIKS – with long S and KS

7 SEV-VEN – with strong S and V and well short VEN

8 ATE – with a long A and strong I

9 NI-NER – with a strong N at the beginning and a long I and a well sounded NER

0 ZERO – with a strong Z and a short RO

You will often be required to spell a certain word or number in your radio

conversations, use the above phonetic equivalents instead of letters and digits.

Communicating through the radio this way might be a little challenging at

first and you will feel the rush to talk as you normally do in your day to day conversations but with constant practice and patience you would be a good radio communicator.

b. Battery Care & Maintenance – To attain maximum life span of the battery, the following shall be undertaken: 1) Charge a new battery for 14 to 16 hours before using it to obtain maximum

battery capacity and performance;

2) Charge batteries using only recommended charger to avoid battery damage;

3) When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn off the radio to

ensure a full charge capacity;

4) The battery should be at about 25 degree Celsius (room temperature) whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 10 degree Celsius) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately, damage of the battery;

5) Charging a hot battery (above 25 degree Celsius) may result in reduced

discharge capacity affecting the performance of the radio;

6) New batteries can be stored up to two years without significant cycle lost. Keep the new/unused batteries in a cool dry storage area;

7) Do not return fully charged batteries to the charger for an “extra boost”.

This action will significantly reduced battery life;

8) Remove the battery from the charger once it is fully charged. Continuous charging even when the battery is fully charged will shorten battery life; and

9) Turn off the radio before removing the battery. Slide the battery latches

on both sides of the battery downward. Pull the top part of the battery away from the radio‟s body.

c. Radio Care (Handheld, Base and Mobile)

1) NEVER PRESS THE PUSH TO TALK BUTTON WHEN THE ANTENNA

IS REMOVED. This will immediately damage the final amplifier of the transceiver and ultimately, the unit itself;

2) Clean external surfaces of the radio with a mild detergent solution using a stiff, non-metallic, short-bristled brush. Apply the detergent solution sparing with the brush, being careful not to allow excess detergent to remain trapped near connectors and controls or in cracks and crevices;

3) NEVER submerge the radio in water or in the detergent solution when

cleaning;

4) Clean all contacts with a lint-free cloth to remove dirt, grease or other foreign material that may prevent good electrical connection;

5) Avoid physical abuse, do not pound, drop, or throw the radio;

6) Do not carry the radio by the antenna;

7) Avoid subjecting the radio to corrosive materials, solvents, or mineral

spirits;

Page 164: CHAPTER I GENERAL ADMINISTRATION

DICTM COMPENDIUM OF PNP ICT POLICIES 164

8) Do not disassemble the radio by yourself. Only PNPCES technicians are allowed to disassemble the radios. Turn-in malfunctioning radios for proper assessment and repair by authorized technicians; and

9) Do not remove the connector cover unless attaching the hand held

microphone that comes with your radio. Set aside the rubberized cover and replace it immediately after the accessory has been removed.

d. Repeater System (for technicians only)

1) Clean external surfaces of the repeater with a mild detergent solution and

a stiff, non-metallic, short-bristled brush;

2) After the station and ancillary equipment have been mechanically installed, properly cabled, and power applied, the equipment must then be optimized before placing into operation;

3) Conduct the following optimization tasks semi-annually;

a) Customize the station codeplug and save the data to the station;

b) Perform the following alignment tasks:

b.1 Receiver (Rx) Wireline; b.2 Transmitter (Tx) Wireline; b.3 Receiver RSSI calibration; b.4 Receiver Squelch adjust; b.5 Battery Equalization; b.6 Reference Oscillator; and b.7 Simulcast/Launch Time Offset

c) Perform post-optimization, checkout procedures, such as verifying power output, deviation, etc.;

d) Wide operating temperature range which is 30 degree Celsius to +60 degree Celsius, and

e) Maintain cleanliness of the repeater station/room. e. Specific instructions for HF, VHF, UHF, and other types of transceiver

radios – For other specific concerns regarding the proper usage, care and maintenance of HF, VHF, UHF and other types of transceiver radios, please consult the product manual

8. ADMINISTRATIVE SANCTION: Any violation of the provisions of this CMC shall be dealt with administratively, with severe penalties, in accordance with the provisions of NAPOLCOM MC 2007-001, Republic Act No. 6713, and other applicable laws, rules and regulations.
