CFR /  Title 32  /  Part 105  /  Sec. 105.15 Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database (DSAID).

(a) Purpose. (1) In accordance with section 563 of Public Law 110-417, DSAID shall support Military Service SAPR program management and DoD SAPRO oversight activities. It shall serve as a centralized, case-level database for the collection and maintenance of information regarding sexual assaults involving persons covered by this part. DSAID will include information, if available, about the nature of the assault, the victim, services offered to the victim, the offender, and the disposition of the reports associated with the assault. DSAID will serve as the DoD's SAPR source for internal and external requests for statistical data on sexual assault in accordance with section 563 of Public Law 110-417. The DSAID has been assigned OMB Control Number 0704-0482. DSAID contains information provided by the military services, which are the original source of the information.

(b) Procedures. DSAID shall:

(1) Contain information about sexual assaults reported to the DoD involving persons covered by this part, both via Unrestricted and Restricted Reporting options.

Information about sexual assault victims and subjects will receive the maximum protection allowed under the law. DSAID will include stringent user access controls.

(3) Assist with annual and quarterly reporting requirements, identifying and managing trends, analyzing risk factors or problematic circumstances, and taking action or making plans to eliminate or to mitigate risks. DSAID shall store case information. Closed case information shall be available to DoD SAPRO for SAPR program oversight, study, research, and analysis purposes. DSAID will provide a set of core functions to satisfy the data collection and analysis requirements for the system in five basic areas: data warehousing, data query and reporting, SARC victim case management functions, subject investigative and legal case information, and SAPR program administration and management.

(4) Receive information from the Military Services' existing data systems or direct data entry by authorized Military Service personnel.
