    Explanation
    The correct answer is the use of a classification symbol immediately following and to the right of the subject. This means that when marking classified material, the classification of the information is indicated by placing a specific symbol immediately after the subject line and to the right of it. This symbol represents the level of classification assigned to the document, such as "Confidential" or "Top Secret". This method allows for quick and easy identification of the document's classification status.

By keeping the register active until each document is disposed of, it ensures that there is a complete and accurate record of all the documents and their status. This helps with accountability and tracking of the documents throughout their lifecycle.

    Containers used to store classified information are identified by affixing an identifying number or symbol in a conspicuous location on the outside. This ensures that the classification level of the material inside the container is clearly visible and easily identifiable. It allows for efficient and organized storage of classified information, as well as easy retrieval and access when needed. Marking the highest classification of the material inside the drawer or on the inside of the container may not be as effective, as it may not be immediately visible or easily noticed.

Destroying these documents with the involvement of two authorized individuals helps to ensure accountability and prevent any unauthorized access or misuse of the information.

It implies that there has been a breach or failure to comply with security protocols or procedures, but it may not have reached the level of a full-fledged compromise where unauthorized access or disclosure of classified information has occurred. In other words, a security infraction represents a less severe incident compared to a compromise, probable compromise, or possible compromise.
