in pending or potential litigation to
which the record is pertinent.
Disclosure of Information to the

there is a risk of harm to economic or
property interests, identity theft or
fraud, or harm to the security or
integrity of this system or other systems
or programs (whether maintained by the
Component or another agency or entity)
that rely upon the compromised
information; and (3) the disclosure
made to such agencies, entities, and
persons is reasonably necessary to assist
in connection with the Components
efforts to respond to the suspected or
confirmed compromise and prevent,
minimize, or remedy such harm.

duties. Access to personal information
is further restricted by the use of Public

authorization. Information is accessible
only by authorized personnel with
appropriate clearance/access in the
performance of their duties. Once access
is gained, the system is set with an
automatic timeout period to reduce the
opportunity for unauthorized access.
For JAMMS, physical and electronic
access is restricted to designated
individuals having a need-to-know in
the performance of official duties.
Access to personal information is
further restricted by the use of login/
password authorization. Computers
running the JAMMS software are
located on Government installations
where physical entry is restricted to
authorized personnel. Each machine is
physically secured with a combination
lock and cable. While the computer is
active, the view screen is oriented away
from the cardholder, and access is
controlled by an attendant on duty.
While the data is at rest and when data
is transferred to SPOT, the records are
encrypted. Daily exports from JAMMS
are uploaded, via encrypted file transfer,
to SPOT as the mandated repository of
information on contingency contract
and contractor information.’’

initiation, investigation and
adjudication of information relevant to

Security System it is the authoritative
source for clearance information
resulting in accesses determinations to
sensitive/classified information and

facilities. Specific uses include:
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.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Federal Government.
Annual Burden Hours: 666,666.
Number of Respondents: 20,000.
Responses per Respondent: 100.
Average Burden per Response: 20
minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
To comply with the Intelligence
Report and Terrorism Prevention Act
(IRTPA) of 2004, the Defense
Information System for Security (DISS)
program was established to design and
implement an IT system to support
Security and Suitability processes
across the Department of Defense (DoD).
Through an incremental approach, DISS
will, in the future, replace legacy
security clearance systems by phasing in
new or enhanced systems as part of the
DISS Family of Systems (FoS). The
records within these applications are
used for personnel security, suitability,
fitness, access management, continuous
evaluation of the subject, and National
Security by providing a common,
comprehensive medium to record,
document, and store investigation and
adjudicative documentation and
adjudicative actions within the
Department, federal agencies, non-DOD,
and DOD contractors. These
applications will provide an evaluation
status, outcome, and updates of
investigative and adjudicative actions
and decisions from trusted information
providers, requestors; provides the
ability for visit requests; subjects to selfreport required information; and/or
provides the ability for the subjects to be
continuously evaluated for the subject’s
security clearance. It will also be used
to compile statistical data used for
analyses and studies. Decentralized
access is authorized at the adjudication
facilities, personnel security interfaces,
services, DOD Component, approved
Non-DoD agencies, and Industry
security offices with a DD254 and
Industry who is directly supporting
continuous evaluation.
The DISS has also been designated as
the repository for adjudicative results
for Suitability and HSPD–12
determinations by the 13 July 2011
USD(I) memo ‘‘Storage of Adjudicative
Results in the Defense Information
VerDate Sep<11>2014

System for Security.’’ The DISS (CATS)
has been designated as the DoD nonIntelligence Community IT system for
case management and adjudications by
the 10 April 2009 USD(I) memo
‘‘Designation of the DoD Case
Management and Adjudication
Systems.’’ Currently, CATS processes
over 500,000 cases annually;
electronically producing favorable
adjudicative decisions for
approximately 24% of Secret level
cases. Further, the 3 May 2012 Deputy
Secretary of Defense Memo ‘‘DoD
Central Adjudication Facilities (CAF)
Consolidation’’ consolidated all DoD
Central Adjudication Facilities (CAF)
into one consolidated DoD CAF
responsible for personnel security
adjudicative functions as well as
favorable Suitability and HSPD–12
adjudications. The DISS (CATS) is the
DOD CAF’s designated IT case
management system.
Respondents are Facility Security
Managers or DoD Adjudicators who
update eligibility and access levels of
military, civilian and contractor
personnel nominated for access to
sensitive DoD information. DISS will be
the authoritative source for clearance
information resulting in accesses
determinations to sensitive/classified
information and facilities. Collection
and maintenance of personal data in
DISS is required to facilitate the
initiation, investigation and
adjudication of information relevant to
DoD security clearances and
employment suitability determinations
for active duty military, civilian
employees and contractors requiring
such credentials.
