WHAT TYPE OF SECURITY CONTROLS MUST BE IN PLACE IF A FACILITY IS CLEARED?
The NISPOM prescribes the minimum security requirements that must be fulfilled by cleared contractors. The IS Rep can provide guidance to the contractor in implementing these requirements in their facility. The implementation of these requirements will ensure the adequate safeguarding of the classified information involved. In some cases, Government agencies have requirements for additional safeguards. For example, if your contract requires you to institute a Special Access Program, additional controls beyond those normally required will be necessary. Such controls can include special clearances and investigative requirements.
