ODNI developing comprehensive continuous evaluation capabilities for agencies in 2018

This is good to....HOPEFULLY...prevent the next Snowden...

The Defense Department is building its own continuous evaluation system with other defense components and internal databases, but the Pentagon will also opt into the NCSC system, Evanina said.

Continuous evaluation will play a major role in DoD’s plan to transfer 75 percent of the security clearance workload from the Office of Personnel Management and the National Background Investigations Bureau to the Pentagon.

Rather than evaluate its clearance holders once every five years, DoD sees continuous evaluation as the method it will use to process periodic reinvestigations more efficiently and quickly.
