Population'', a federated authoritative data source, and return data 
necessary to register a subject in a PACS.

registry data and any prior security alerts that have been obtained 
from the CIME. In addition it provides the capability to add or update 
local facility access persons, otherwise known as ``Locals'' within the 
DoD, to a central data source so they too can be included in the update 
service.
    An Update Data Service will provide updates to information 
affecting registry like credential revocations and security alerts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Summary of Information Collection

    IoLS (Interoperability Layer Services) is an application in a set 
DMDC enterprise services specifically targeted to enhance DoD 
capability to support rapid electronic authentication for local/non-DoD 
population persons (i.e., vendors, contractors, laborers) requesting 
access to DoD Installations. IoLS is designed to enable disparate 
Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) within DoD to share identity and 
security related information. IoLS requires personal data collection to 
facilitate the initiation, investigation and adjudication of person 
security status by communicating with Continuous Information Management 
Engine (CIME) on Security Alert relevant to DoD security clearances and 
employment suitability determinations.
