避免泄露机密 美国国防部发布限用手机新规

The US Department of Defense has introduced a new policy setting more restrictions for cellphones as well as some electronic devices in Pentagon areas designated for processing, handling or discussing classified information, according to a Pentagon memo.

根据五角大楼发布的一份备忘录，美国国防部出台一项新政，对在五角大楼用于处理、操作或讨论机密情报的手机及部分电子设备设置更多限制。

The memo, signed by Deputy Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan, appears to make clear the current practice that requires phones be left in "daily-use storage containers that are located outside the secure space" where sensitive materials are handled or discussed.

这份由国防部副部长帕特里克·沙纳罕签署的备忘录似乎清楚地阐明，目前的措施是把手机放到“位于安全区域外日常使用的储物里”，在安全区域工作人员会处理或讨论敏感材料。

But it notes that cellphones can still be used in common areas and other Pentagon offices if classified information is not present.

但备忘录指出，手机仍可以在普通区域及五角大楼其他不涉及机密信息的办公室内使用。

The new rules, which take effect immediately and must be fully implemented within six months, apply to the Defense Department's personnel, contractors and visitors and cover "laptops, tablets, cellular phones, smart watches, and other devices that are portable".

据悉，新规将立即生效，且必须在六个月内全面实施，适用于国防部的内部人员、承包商和访客，涉及笔记本电脑、平板电脑、移动电话、智能手表和其他便携式装置。

The memo notes several exceptions, including the use of government-issued cellphones by senior officials in secure spaces if the camera, microphone and wireless capabilities are turned off.

备忘录还提到一些例外情况，其中包括若摄像头、麦克风和无线上网功能关闭，则高级官员可在安全区域内使用政府发放的移动电话。

Pentagon launched a review on the use of cellphones in January after GPS reporting company Strava published a global heat map based on user exercise routes.

在全球定位系统（GPS）追踪公司Strava发布了一份基于用户运动轨迹的全球热图后，五角大楼今年1月对手机的使用情况进行了评估。

The map showed running routes of soldiers on remote and classified U.S. military bases.
