Information and Personnel Security Programs are interdependent. The failure of a Personnel Security Program, regardless of reason, can set conditions for the compromise of classified/sensitive information or materials. The interdependency of the Information and Personnel Security Programs stems from AR 380-5, Department of the Army Information Security Program Regulation. The principle objective of a Personnel Security Program is to ensure that the requirement for "proper clearance" is met. To accomplish this goal, the following criteria must be met: * To ensure that only property investigated personnel receive security clearances. * To ensure that personnel granted security clearances do not become vulnerable or unsuitable for continued access to classified information or materials. TERMINOLOGY. The key to administering a viable personnel security program is a thorough understanding of the terminology. A list of terms, with definitions, is as follows: Control Office: The Control Office is the office responsible for directing and controlling counterintelligence (CI) investigations. Classified Defense Information: Official information which requires protection in the interest of national defense and which is classified for that purpose. National Security: National security concerns the protection and preservation of military, economic, and productive strength of the U.S., to include the security of the U.S. in foreign affairs, against acts of sabotage, espionage, subversion, and terrorism.
