How to Use CUI Visitor and Personnel Badges

CUI Visitor and Personnel Badges are used to visually identify who is authorized to enter, work in, or be escorted through areas where Controlled Unclassified Information is handled, stored, processed, displayed, discussed, or created.

Use purple CUI Approved / CUI Authorized badges for individuals who are permitted to access CUI areas or handle CUI under your organization’s procedures. Use red CUI Restricted badges for visitors, contractors, vendors, employees, or other personnel who should not access CUI materials or enter CUI-controlled areas without proper authorization or escort.

These badges are especially useful at reception desks, controlled area entrances, manufacturing floors, engineering departments, labs, server rooms, IT closets, print/copy areas, inspection areas, shipping areas, and conference rooms where CUI may be present.

For best results, issue badges during visitor sign-in, employee onboarding, facility tours, assessments, maintenance visits, customer visits, and other situations where personnel access needs to be clearly identified. Badges should be worn visibly above the waist and returned or updated when the visit, shift, role, or authorization status changes.

CUI badges should be paired with visitor logs, escort procedures, restricted area signs, CUI authorized-only floor tape, CUI media labels, SF 901 cover sheets, and employee training. Badges do not replace access control procedures, but they help make authorization status visible at a glance.

Best used for: visitor management, controlled area access, employee authorization, contractor identification, facility tours, audits, assessments, maintenance visits, production areas, labs, engineering spaces, and server rooms.

Recommended use: Use purple badges or lanyards to identify CUI-authorized personnel, and red badges or lanyards to identify restricted individuals who should not access CUI without approval or escort.
