This determination is based on investigation and review of available personal data and a finding that access is clearly consistent with national interests.

What is the purpose of a security clearance?

The purpose of a security clearance is to determine whether a person is able and willing to safeguard classified national security information, based on his or her loyalty, character, trustworthiness, and reliability.

There are three levels of security clearance, with the highest level being TOP SECRET. SECRET is the next level of clearance and CONFIDENTIAL is the lowest level.

Special approval must be given to have access to this information. “For Official Use Only” is not a security classification.
