Under the rules, how many sensitive records can a government agency head approve for off-site access at one time?
When a formal request for off-site access is officially approved, the head of the agency must strictly limit the access scale to practically mitigate potential privacy risks. The maximum allowable limit is exactly not more than one thousand individual records at any single given time. This specific quantitative limitation acts as a critical security safeguard against massive data exposures during off-site transportation or remote handling by personnel. The specific numerical cap for such remote access is detailed in Section 31 IRR. “(b) Limitation to One thousand (1,000) Records. Where a request is approved, the head of agency shall limit the access to not more than one thousand (1,000) records at a time, subject to the next succeeding paragraph.” 20-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
