Model for a Future Defense Personnel Security System
Abstract
The "Options project" considered published reports and evaluations of DoD's personnel security program, relevant program initiatives, strategic goals, organizational principles that have been shown to enhance effectiveness, the role of information technology, personnel security practices outside of DoD, and insights from interviews of personnel security experts in order to design a more coherent and effective personnel security system. This approach yielded a model with five organizational elements, three of which: Requirements and Adjudication Management Programs (RAMPs), the Defense Investigation Technology and Tracking Office (DITTO), and the Personnel Security Oversight Committee (PSOC), are novel organizational entities. The report describes organizational roles in the proposed "RAMPs/DITTO model," and recommends that an Acting PSOC be established to manage implementation.
