Which statement is supported by the material?

• A. Courier briefing informs the individual hand carrying the information of security responsibilities.
• B. Courier briefing informs the USPS of its responsibilities.
• C. Courier briefing informs the receiving facility.
• D. Courier briefing covers only the hand-off procedure.

Answer: (A)

When information is entrusted to a courier, the briefing is meant to spell out the security duties of the person who is carrying it. This briefing lays out what they must do to protect the material during transit—how to handle, store, and secure it; what to do if there’s a loss or suspected compromise; whom to contact for guidance; and any restrictions on access or movement. It’s focused on the individual carrier’s responsibilities, not on informing an organization like the USPS or a receiving facility, and it goes beyond just the hand-off procedure to cover ongoing responsibilities throughout the transport. That’s why this statement—telling the person carrying the information what their security responsibilities are—best matches the material.
