DFAS Personnel Security Incident Reporting Requirements, the National Industrial Security Program and Due Process as it Relates to DFAS Contractor Personnel

The National Industrial Security Program (NISP) is a partnership between the federal government and private industry to safeguard classified information and CUI.

Executive Order 12829, as amended, "National Industrial Security Program," further amended by Section 6 of E.O. 13691, was established to achieve cost savings and to ensure that industry safeguards the classified information with which it is entrusted while performing work on contracts, programs, bids, or research and development efforts while working for the United States Government.

It is important to note that personnel employed as contractors for DFAS are not covered under the National Industrial Security Program (NISP) and are exempt from the provisions of 5 C.F.R. 731. This means that DFAS contractor personnel involved in an incident that potentially violates one or more of the National Security Adjudicative Guidelines found at https://www.dni.gov/files/NCSC/documents/Regulations/SEAD-4-Adjudicative-Guidelines-U.pdf , are not entitled to Due Process rights normally afforded to federal civilian employees and those personnel covered under NISP; more specifically, DFAS Personnel Security may suspend or revoke contractor personnel access to DFAS IT systems, sensitive information and/or DFAS facilities.

Incident Reporting Requirements

In all cases, whenever a DFAS contractor displays conduct, or is involved in any incident, which is in violation of any of the thirteen National Security Adjudicative Guidelines*, the contractor must immediately report the incident to the contractor company Security Office/Facility Security Officer, the DFAS Manager of the area to which they are assigned, the CO, the COR, the Director, Force Protection, and the DFAS Personnel Security Office. Reporting to DFAS Personnel Security may be made by phone to (317) 212-7888, by email to dfas.indianapolis-in.zh.mbx.dfas-inhrsecurity@mail.mil, or, in the case of personnel physically located at DFAS Indianapolis Center, in person to the DFAS Personnel Security Office located on the third-floor center hallway at Column 320T.

All incidents will be investigated by DFAS Personnel Security and, depending on the date of the subject’s most recent investigation, may need to have an updated background investigation initiated. Those that do not require a new investigation will have all relevant information regarding the incident forwarded to the DCSA TD(a) for review and re-adjudication.

*The thirteen National Security Adjudicative Guidelines are:

1. GUIDELINE A: Allegiance to the United States

2. GUIDELINE B: Foreign Influence

3. GUIDELINE C: Foreign Preference

4. GUIDELINE D: Sexual Behavior

5. GUIDELINE E: Personal Conduct

6. GUIDELINE F: Financial Considerations

7. GUIDELINE G: Alcohol Consumption

8. GUIDELINE H: Drug Involvement and Substance Misuse

9. GUIDELINE I: Psychological Conditions

10. GUIDELINE J: Criminal Conduct

11. GUIDELINE K: Handling Protected Information

12. GUIDELINE L: Outside Activities https://www.dni.gov/files/NCSC/documents/Regulations/SEAD-4-Adjudicative-Guidelines-U.pdf mailto:dfas.indianapolis-in.zh.mbx.dfas-inhrsecurity@mail.mil

13. GUIDELINE M: Use of Information Technology

Some Examples of Incidents That Require Reporting to DFAS Personnel Security:

a) An arrest for any criminal offense, not including minor traffic violations, by any law enforcement agency. This DOES include the traffic offenses of Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Drugs, and Reckless Driving.

b) Violation of any court order.

c) Civil judgements.

d) Delinquencies on any debt for 180 days or longer.

e) Federal, State or Local tax issues or delinquencies.

f) Delinquencies on any Federal debt (including Federal Student Loans and Federally backed home mortgage loans).

g) Child Support delinquencies.

h) Filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy in any Federal Bankruptcy Court.

i) Foreign Travel.

j) Marriage or Cohabitation with a Foreign National (person from a foreign country).

k) Having a close personal friendship with a Foreign National with regularly occurring contact.

l) Ownership of property or financial accounts in a foreign country; and

m) Being approached by a person know to be, or suspected to be, working as an agent of a foreign government or terrorist organization, or any other person, who seeks any information about DFAS, the Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government, especially if the person offers money or something of value to the contractor employee.

It should be noted that a person’s delinquency on Federal debt of any kind may not obtain or maintain favorable personnel security adjudication or be considered for a contractor position with DFAS unless they can provide documentary proof that a payment plan has been established with the Government agency to whom the debt is owed, and that regularly recurring payments are being made. Contractor personnel who cannot obtain and maintain a favorable personnel security adjudication may not have access to government data, facilities, and/or equipment required under the contract.

NOTE: This list does not cover every potential incident or offense; any incident in which a contractor is involved, and a question exists as to whether it should be reported, should report the incident to DFAS Personnel Security, who will then determine if further action is warranted. Failure to report an incident is, in and of itself, an incident involving personal conduct, and may, in some cases, be more serious than the original incident.

Upon receipt of the complete Form 9133, the Site Force Protection Office will contact the contractor employee to validate training, complete the country/theater clearance package, as required, and schedule a Foreign Travel briefing. Immediately prior to travel, contractor employees will check with the State Department at https://travel.state.gov/en/international-travel/travel-advisories.html/ for any travel advisories for the country or region being traveled to and take the appropriate steps to ensure their safety for any location covered by a travel advisory or warning.

Security Education and Training

Contractor personnel shall receive initial, continuous and refresher security education training in accordance with DoDM 5200.01, Volume 3, “DoD Information Security Program – Protection of Classified Information,” DoDI 5200.48, DFAS 2000.1-I, DFAS 5200.1-I, DFAS 5200.8-I, and DFAS 5200.10-I. Contractor personnel shall also complete all required contractor training requirements identified in this PWS.

https://dfasportal.dfas.mil/ddss/force_protection/Pages/SiteSpecificForceProtectionSecurityServices.aspx https://travel.state.gov/en/international-travel/travel-advisories.html/

19 | P a g e

Contractors shall work with the assigned DFAS COR/Mission Partner Account Sponsor (MPAS) to obtain a CAC using Mission Partner Identity Credential Account Management (MP ICAM). Under no circumstances will a CAC be issued to any person unless that person has been cleared up by the DFAS Personnel Security Office to work on the contract.

All CACs and badges issued to Contractor personnel are government property and must be returned to the assigned DFAS COR/MPAS upon departure from the program or at the conclusion of the contract, whichever comes first. CACs can also be mailed in or turned into RAPIDS locations. Contractors whose CAC is lost or stolen must report the loss as soon as possible to the assigned DFAS COR/MPAS and present documentation that the CAC is missing and describe the circumstances under which the loss occurred. The assigned DFAS COR/MPAS will follow agency CAC procedures to issue a new CAC.

Contractors must not share their CACs and passwords with any other staff members. The assigned DFAS COR/MPAS will report any violation or suspected violation to the Contracting Officer and DFAS MP ICAM Account Security Manager (MPASM). Any violators will be temporarily or permanently removed from the project. If a Contractor has a CAC issued from another agency, that CAC must be revoked and returned before issuance of a new CAC.
