    JSP 440 in Brief

    JSP 440 is the MOD's defence manual of security. It governs handling of sensitive material, including electronics with potential for compromise or exploitation.

    Seized Electronics in Operational Settings

    Shielded bags and cases are used to isolate captured, surrendered or seized electronics in operational settings, preventing tracking, remote access or evidence loss before exploitation.

    Working with DE&S Procurement

    Procurement typically routes via DE&S or direct contracts under defence frameworks. Suppliers must demonstrate provenance, attenuation performance and supply-chain assurance.

    Auditing the Kit Lifecycle

    Lifecycle controls include serial-numbered issue, periodic test of representative samples, replacement schedules and end-of-life destruction recorded against asset tags.
