2.5.1.2.1. The purpose of this section is to provide context for the CRs addressed or enabled by the Joint DCR, to provide appropriate traceability to the approved threat products from DIE used during refinement of the capability requirements, and to describe updates to the threat products since validation of the requirements. When applicable, this information also enables threat assessment as part of the intelligence certification provided during Joint DCR review and validation, and facilitates rapid review and update of successor documents when applicable threat products are updated.

2.5.1.2.2. A threat summary is not applicable to all Joint DCRs depending upon the nature of the change recommendations. The Sponsor should coordinate with the proponent for the intelligence certificate, as outlined in Annex G to Appendix G of this enclosure, to determine whether or not a threat summary is required.
