All printed and electronic, including digital, technical documents that are determined to contain Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) shall be marked. This includes, but is not limited to, all publications marked for Distribution Statement B, C, D, or E, or containing export-controlled technical data.

At a minimum, these documents should be marked "CUI" or "CONTROLLED" at the top and bottom of each page/slide, and include a CUI designation indicator at the bottom right of the cover or first page/slide. An example can be found on the Unclassified paper template and the Classified paper template, as well as the first and last pages of the JANNAF Publication Clearance Form.
