source for clearance information resulting in accesses determinations 
to sensitive/classified information and facilities. Specific uses 
include the facilitation for DoD Adjudicators and Security Managers to 
obtain accurate up-to-date eligibility and access information on all 
personnel (military, civilian and contractor personnel) adjudicated by 
the DoD. The DoD Adjudicators and Security Managers are also able to 
update eligibility and access levels of military, civilian and 
contractor personnel nominated for access to sensitive DoD information. 
By completing the OPM Shared Forms SF 86, SF 86A, SF 86C, SF 85, or SF 
85P, individuals are consenting to the specific uses of their PII. 
Information contained in this system is derived from the appropriate 
DoD personnel systems; Case Adjudication Tracking System (CATS); 
records maintained by the DoD adjudicative agencies; and records 
maintained by security managers, special security officers, or other 
officials requesting and/or sponsoring the security eligibility 
determination for the individual.
