Note: There are two limited dissemination control markings that can be used with this category; Attorney Work Product (AWP), Attorney Client Privilege (AC). These limited dissemination control markings may be used to help identify the type of privilege in the document and limit the dissemination of that information so as to preserve that privilege. These limited dissemination control markings (AWP, AC) may only be used on information protected under the CUI “Legal Privilege” category.
