of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall, 
acting through the Director of Cost Assessment and Program 
Evaluation and in consultation with the Director of the Office

tees of Congress a report setting forth a comprehensive analysis 
comparing the quality, cost, and timeliness of personnel security

(1) shall do the following: 
(A) Determine and compare, for each of the Office 
of Personnel Management and the components of the

REQUIRED.—In developing the strategy 
required by paragraph (1), the Secretary and the Directors

paragraph (1), the Secretary and the Directors shall address 
issues including but not limited to the following: 
(A) Elimination of manual or inefficient processes in 
investigations and reinvestigations for personnel security, 
wherever practicable, and automating and integrating the 
elements of the investigation and adjudication processes, 
including in the following: 
(i) The clearance application process. 
(ii) Investigation case management.

(iv) Investigation methods for the collection, anal-
ysis, storage, retrieval, and transfer of data and records 
from investigative sources and between any case 
management systems.

decisions. 
(B) Elimination or reduction, where possible, of the 
use of databases and information sources that cannot be 
accessed and processed automatically electronically, or 
modification of such databases and information sources, 
if appropriate and cost-effective, to enable electronic access 
and processing. 
(C) Access and analysis of government, publically avail-
able, and commercial data sources, including social media, 
that provide independent information pertinent to adjudica-
tion guidelines and termination standards to improve 
quality and timeliness, and reduce costs, of investigations 
and reinvestigations. 
(D) Use of government-developed and commercial tech-
nology for continuous monitoring and evaluation of govern-
ment and commercial data sources that can identify and 
flag information pertinent to hiring and clearance deter-
minations.
H. R. 3304—149 
(E) Standardization of forms used for routine reporting 
required of cleared personnel (such as travel, foreign con-
tacts, and financial disclosures) and use of continuous moni-
toring technology to access databases containing such 
reportable information to independently obtain and analyze 
reportable data and events. 
(F) Establishment of an authoritative central repository 
of personnel security information that is accessible elec-
tronically at multiple levels of classification and eliminates 
technical barriers to rapid access to information necessary 
for eligibility determinations and reciprocal recognition 
thereof, including the ability to monitor the status of an 
individual and any events related to the continued eligi-
bility of such individual for employment or clearance during 
intervals between investigations. 
(G) Elimination or reduction of the scope of, or alter-
ation of the schedule for, periodic reinvestigations of cleared 
personnel, when such action is appropriate in light of the 
information provided by continuous monitoring or evalua-
tion technology. 
(H) Electronic integration of personnel security proc-
esses and information systems with insider threat detection 
and monitoring systems, and pertinent law enforcement, 
counterintelligence and intelligence information, for threat 
detection and correlation, including those processes and 
systems operated by components of the Department of 
Defense for purposes of local security, workforce manage-
ment, or other related purposes. 
(5) RISK-BASED
MONITORING.—The strategy required by 
paragraph (1) shall— 
(A) include the development of a risk-based approach 
to monitoring and reinvestigation that prioritizes which 
cleared individuals shall be subject to frequent reinvestiga-
tions and random checks, such as the personnel with the 
broadest access to classified information or with access 
to the most sensitive classified information, including 
information technology specialists or other individuals with 
such broad access commonly known as ‘‘super users’’; 
(B) ensure that if the system of continuous monitoring 
for all cleared individuals described in paragraph (4)(D) 
is implemented in phases, such system shall be imple-
mented on a priority basis for the individuals prioritized 
under subparagraph (A); and 
(C) ensure that the activities of individuals prioritized 
under subparagraph (A) shall be monitored especially 
closely.

agencies and individual investigators as they conduct their 
security clearance background investigations. 
(C) The processes agencies have implemented to ensure 
quality in the security clearance background investigation 
process. 
(D) The extent to which agencies have developed and 
implemented outcome-focused performance measures to 
track the quality of security clearance investigations and 
any insights from these measures.

most expensive and least strategic method to acquire necessary 
commercial satellite services; and

priations, Congress encourages the Department to pursue a 
variety of methods to reduce cost and meet the necessary mili-
tary requirements, including multi-year leases and procurement 
of Government-owned payloads on commercial satellites.

ments development and approval processes of the Department
