Vulnerability discussion

Failure to screen guards could result in employment of unsuitable personnel who are responsiblefor the safety and security of DOD personnel and facilities.

Check content

Check to ensure: 1. Contract guards have a minimum favorable National Agency Check (NAC) prior to DoD facility assignment or an appropriate level of security clearance if required by the DD 254 and classified duties performed. 2. If classified work is not required check to ensure security specifications are contained within the contract documentation (Statement of Work (SOW) or other appropriate documentation) for NAC and any other security requirements not involving access to classified. 3. That contract guards actually have current investigations for the position level of trust and/or security clearance requirements. NOTES: 1. Fully applicable in a tactical environment if contract guards are employed. 2. This check does not "necessarily" apply to base police/gate guards - only to the guards employed specifically to protect "inspected site" assets. If the host installation employs contract guards to assist or directly protect "inspected site" assets then the requirements of this Vul will apply.
