I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

Once a company wins a bid on classified work, they will then prepare their organization to perform classified work according to the contract. Some great planning resources are the DD Form 254, Statement of Work, and Security Classification Guide. This podcast teaches how to use the references to set up your program.
As part of a classified contract, Cleared Defense Contractors (CDC) may receive or transmit classified information. Part of the receipt task is the critical inspection of the package throughout the unwrapping process. The inspector is searching for evidence of tampering or to otherwise to inspect that there has been no compromise of classified material since leaving the sender’s organization.
Once all the checks and verifications are complete, the receiver can then sign a copy of the receipt and return to the sender, thus closing the loop on the sender’s accounting responsibilities. The copies of receipts are filed away and the classified information is put into a database and the items are stored according to the classification.
Those wrapping classified information should only do so after receiving extensive training on the classification system.
The National Industrial Security Program charges cleared contractors with protecting classified information. This protection extends through all phases of contracts and throughout the duration of the classification. Protection also includes the reception, storage, dissemination, and destruction of the information.
Dissemination is a critical part of protecting classified information as the classified information leaves the control of the cleared organization. Whether couriered, mailed, or otherwise delivered, it is removed from a cleared facility and must be prepared in a way to protect the information from unauthorized disclosure.
Prior to sending out classified information the FSO should ensure that it is double wrapped with opaque paper to preclude casual observation of the classification markings and contents.
Always store and protect classified information properly. The information provided below can prove helpful as a checklist for transmitting classified information:

Send us a text Get the Training Security Training; It's That Important NISPOM requires that every cleared employee receives the initial training and the annual refresher training The rational for initial and refresher is because new employees are introduced to sensitive and classified government information and they should learn the fundamentals. Here are some great topics; just so happens to be addressed in NISPOM: The nature of classified material and how to protect it. Notice of their responsibilities to protect classified information and the consequences of unauthorized disclosure Recognizing and protecting U.S. and foreign government classified material Criteria for authorizing access to classified information Responding to classified information released to the public Security chain of command and support structure for addressing security incidents and violations Cleared employees on foreign travel For example, the newly cleared employee may not understand how to dial a combination or determine who to allow access to classified material.

The awardee is able to perform on classified contracts where they would not otherwise be able. However, some defense contractors mistakenly assume that they can request a Facility Security Clearance (FCL) for business development purposes or to better position themselves future classified contract opportunities. Though that is not how FCLs are awarded, there is a process and methodology to justify the FCL. The FSO has marching orders to develop and implement security programs to protect classified information. But, how effective is security policy if it is written by security and posted only in the security office? Identify items, events, and issues that security can help withLook at upcoming contracts, business development goals, program requirements and then implement NISPOM guidelines.

Violating State Department regulations will bring the weight of the US Government on the offending company. According to the International Traffic In Arms Regulation, ITAR , “Any person who engages in the United States in the business of either manufacturing or exporting defense articles or furnishing defense services is required to register”. Security clearances should be kept to the minimum amount necessary to perform the classified work, access to that classified information must be kept to only those with a valid need to perform on the government work. Security clearance verification cannot provide need to know. Just because one has a clearance doesn’t mean they should be authorized access. Need to know is based on a contractual or work performance basis. A leader can form an HPT from all business units. Since the FSO is responsible for creating a security program to protect classified information, they may either suggest or take the lead and form the group. Once in the group, the individuals begin to discuss the vision, norms and etc. Such topics to tackle might include policy, security violations, refresher training, emergency operations planning, and communication for starters. A multi organizational HPT can bring depth and breadth to a stagnant security program.Only those working in the National Industrial Security Program for at least 5 years are edible for the ISP Certification and anyone holding the SFPC qualifies for ISOC. Five years experience should make the professional more than capable of passing the exam. However, understanding how to study will make a difference in their success.

However, it doesn’t always answer some questions these FSOs might have about protecting classified information. For example, suppose a defense contractor company has a contract requiring the storage of classified information at the SECRET level. Do they need an alarm? You might recall in earlier articles that I’ve emphasized the importance of finding out what the threats to classified information are to your particular organization. Be aware of NISPOM vs. Best Practices, vs. Risk Assessment before committing resources that may or may not be required. Industry standards and common practices may almost seem like requirements, but can be expensive endeavors if not necessary to implement. To some, it may be unheard of not to have alarms, cameras or access control systems (door magnets and card readers). However, these are not required in NISPOM (except for intrusion detection systems as identified in certain situations and not in all situations). Prior to travel, a cleared employee should have a good understanding of their responsibilities to protect national security. A Defensive Security Briefing is for those who travel overseas and may be vulnerable to foreign entity recruiting methods. They should be constructed to make the cleared traveler aware of their responsibilities to protect employees, product, customers and those with which they do business. Topics of the defense security briefing should include threat recognition, how to assess and how to respond when approached for recruitment.

Those and several similar motivational publications stress that everyone has the same amount of time in a day. What we do during that time helps us either make or goals or fail before we even get started. As leaders, FSOs can help cleared defense contractor employees understand how to create incredible security programs. Focusing on training, interaction with other cleared employees, self-improvement and institutional education should be part of professional development. FSOs and managers who write evaluations for direct reports have an excellent opportunity to help them establish goals to become better at their jobs, more impactful in their careers and hopefully, groomed to become FSO’s themselves. Challenging employees and team members to achieve personal and professional goals breeds success. Security certifications such as ISP Certification and ISOC certification are goals cleared employees could take as a goal as well as encourage employees to achieve. The employee gains from such education and a prestigious career milestone. The organization also benefits from what the security employee learns and applies on the job. When employees study for the ISP Certification, they learn: how to read and apply the NISPOM, the importance of forming professional relationships with cleared employees, how the cleared contractor and the DSS representatives interact, and much more. A leader also creates pride in the organization and employee by making them more competitive in their career and providing basis for professional pride. When employees are challenged with the goal, the manager can help by providing or allowing education as found on the DCS NISPOM Central Providing security clearance books, training, and resources for cleared defense contractors.

Begin at the NCMS, ISP Certification information website @ http://www.ncms-isp.org/ISP_Certification/index.asp . If your goal is ISOC certification, begin at the CDSE website . 2. Understand the application process. There are minimum experience requirements that applicants must meet as well as administrative tasks built into the process. 3. Understand the requirements and get a feel of where you are professionally and any gaps you need to breach to bring your knowledge of NISPOM and I SP or ISOC Certification categories to where it needs to be. It’s not necessary to be an expert in all areas or to be able to quote regulations and requirements. 4. The following are some things that you can do to prepare to fill those knowledge gaps: a. Study the NISPOM and other reference document structure and understand where to find topic related information. Also, become familiar with key industry standard words found in the source documents. b. Join a study group. There you can study their material, ask questions and get feedback. c. Find a mentor. 5.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text In the course of performing on classified defense contracts, exchange of classified information is inevitable. While, the movement of classified information outside of a secure environment is to be kept to a minimum, there are times it must be moved in fulfillment of requirements. As the senior industrial security manager in CDCs, the FSO leads the security program designed to protect classified information and prevent unauthorized disclosure. While working in the secure environment, contractors protect classified information under their control and cleared employees protect classified information entrusted to them. Classified Meetings: Prior to the start of a classified meeting either the government sponsor or the contractor representative should provide a security briefing notifying attendees of the classification of information to be discussed, whether or not taking notes is permitted and if so, how they will be controlled. For example, when classified notes are permitted, they will have to be properly marked, introduced into accountability and prepared for dissemination (hand carry with the attendee or mailed at a later date). The presentation is controlled to prevent the inadvertent and unauthorized release. Each attendee should also be reminded to remove any cell phones or other electronic devices. In the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual ( NISPOM), we have a similar package "reveal". Security specialists, document control professionals, facility security officers and others in possessing facilities may receive classified information, depending on the contract. Part of the receipt is the critical inspection of the package during the integration process. As they unwrap the package, the inspector is orienting themselves to better understand what they should be receiving. This begins by inspecting the package physically, then comparing the contents with the receipt. They are also searching for evidence of tampering or NISPOM Central Providing security clearance books, training, and resources for cleared defense contractors.

I’m putting air quotes in there, because an actual NISPOM has not been rewritten or re-released. There is no re-release of NISPOM, only a reorganization of the CFRs that duplicate National Industrial Security Program requirements. Conclusion: No new NISPOM (just a few additions) · 32 CFR part 117 and 32 CFR part 2004 are redundant requirements · DoD will no longer publish the DoD Manual 5220.22, NISPOM as a DoD policy issuance in 32 CFR part 117. · 32 CFR part 2004, “National Industrial Security Program” is now the standing CFR · NISPOM Change 2 is still a requirement that Cleared Defense Contractor (CDC) must follow Background A quick read will review that there actually is no new NISPOM . This information just codifies (fancy legal term for: arrange (laws or rules) into a systematic code.).

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text Careers in Cleared Defense Contractors: I receive a lot of emails from people who wonder how to get into the Cleared Defense Contractor field. Many are looking for a career change and are curious about what kind of education and experience is needed to work as a security specialist in the defense and contractor industry. Industrial security is an outstanding field for someone with all ranges of experience to enter into. Some have been hired at an entry level job and have received promotions and additional responsibilities. Others have transferred full time to security after enjoying serving in an additional duty capacity. Career growth occurs as the contract and company expands or the employee takes on more responsibilities after hiring on with another company. Security managers can also move to higher level security positions as chief security officer or corporate security officer as experience meets opportunity. Consulting: Consultants are hired by a company to fill a need the organization is not prepared to meet. The consultants share office furniture, the water cooler and are hopefully made to feel as part of the team. In spite of being a well respected contributor to the cause, consultants do not always enjoy the same benefits of a regular employee. However, this difference should occur when working on classified contracts the consultant has been hire to perform on. Simply stated, though a consultant is not a regular employee, the NISPOM considers them an employee of the company that they represent. The contractor is expected to maintain the consultant’s clearance and assign classified work as specified in a contract. One thing that I like about security professional organizations like American Society of Industrial Security Professionals International (ASIS) is their emphasis on giving to the community. The group sponsors scholarships, provides security services and training opportunities designed to help non-profit or not for profit organizations.

These occasions have proven to be good opportunities to clarify understanding of security policies and the reasons we do what we do. Preparing for growth involves the FSO not only training and hiring security employees, but accurately calculating classified inventory storage and work performance needs. Meeting legitimate growth is another area where an FSO should be injected into strategic planning. Classified contract opportunities present themselves in many variations. Potential security professionals should not only be U.S. citizens with security clearances , but demonstrate competence in the tasks they are asked to do and a desire to perform. They should also have the ability to grasp and teach concepts of security to help keep the security fresh in the corporate culture. During the certification training , the new employee can enroll in government provided on-line and residence training, lessons provided by company personnel and directly under their manager's supervision. The end of day security checklists play a critical role in protecting classified items as well as personal, proprietary and company sensitive material. The end of day checklist is a procedure required in the NISPOM and other federal agency regulations. However, they could be implemented in any situation where privileged or sensitive items prove vulnerable to theft or espionage. "What defines this room as approved for open storage?" I had asked while consulting on a project a few years ago. I had been in the middle of a deep security application discussion. The whole time I realized that the security employees I consulted understood their responsibilities, but did not know why the security measures were in place or where to find the guidance.

Chapter Five reviews the Executive Orders and regulations relating to Classification Markings and there is some good information from all sources. I believe this is fundamental to the profession of anyone working on classified contracts . Understanding why and how information is classified is vital to knowing exactly what to protect and how. There are a few hard and fast rules for classifying information. It is a fantastic idea to maintain a data set of security breaches, violations, reports of compromise or suspected compromise. However, this data rarely leaves their office. Because of the sensitive nature, it is held closely either for fear of retribution or fear of embarrassment. In truth, there is no retribution for security violation reports and information contained could be very valuable for security awareness. The security manager will probably have information detailing the frequency of violations, the persons committing the violations, resolutions and training to correct the behavior. This security manager could use the information to specifically train the business unit to inform them of the infraction, as well as provide details for the annual security awareness training . See our website for downloadable training slides for your company. Our training includes Derivative Classifier , Insider Threat and Required Annual Security Awareness topics.

Some great planning resources are the DD Form 254, Statement of Work, and Security Classification Guide. This podcast teaches how to use the references to set up your program. As part of a classified contract, Cleared Defense Contractors (CDC) may receive or transmit classified information. Part of the receipt task is the critical inspection of the package throughout the unwrapping process. The inspector is searching for evidence of tampering or to otherwise to inspect that there has been no compromise of classified material since leaving the sender’s organization. Once all the checks and verifications are complete, the receiver can then sign a copy of the receipt and return to the sender, thus closing the loop on the sender’s accounting responsibilities. The copies of receipts are filed away and the classified information is put into a database and the items are stored according to the classification. Those wrapping classified information should only do so after receiving extensive training on the classification system. The National Industrial Security Program charges cleared contractors with protecting classified information. This protection extends through all phases of contracts and throughout the duration of the classification. Protection also includes the reception, storage, dissemination, and destruction of the information. Dissemination is a critical part of protecting classified information as the classified information leaves the control of the cleared organization. Whether couriered, mailed, or otherwise delivered, it is removed from a cleared facility and must be prepared in a way to protect the information from unauthorized disclosure. Prior to sending out classified information the FSO should ensure that it is double wrapped with opaque paper to preclude casual observation of the classification markings and contents. Always store and protect classified information properly. The information provided below can prove helpful as a checklist for transmitting classified information: Links mentioned.

The high-level training and onboarding is enough to get you “authorized” and prepared for the work. The rest of the preparation will come from other sources to include peers, supervisors and program managers. This training is usually provided on the job as you actually begin performing on the classified contract. This is how it might play out. The Government Contracting Agency (GCA) or program office flows down the classified work in the contract to the Cleared Defense Contractor (CDC) . Part of the classified contract is the Contract Security Classification Specification or DD Form 254. According to the information on the DAMI website, the purpose of the DD Form 254 is to “…convey security requirements, classification guidance and provide handling procedures for classified material received and/or generated on a classified contract…” This DD Form 254 provides direct information to complete your training so that you can perform well. Keep in mind that if you will be working on multiple contracts, you should understand the contents for each contract. The DD Form 254 will explain the classification level that you will be working with. It is important to understand that this level will be at the same level or lower than your security clearance level. Therefore, you would need a Top Secret clearance to work on classified contracts at the Top Secret level or lower. The form may also state any additional classification concerns such NISPOM Central Providing security clearance books, training, and resources for cleared defense contractors.

You can support our show by buying Insider's Guide to Security Clearances https://amzn.to/2JUjnIc This is great for dod security professionals, industrial security professionals, those who have questions about dod security clearances, and much more. Did you know that employees with security clearances make up to 15% more than their counterparts? But many people don't apply for security clearance jobs because they are worried about their past. Many don't apply because they don't understand the process. Insider's Guide to Security Clearances answers your questions and walks the reader through the process. It's like having a security clearance roadmap and a private guide. What I've learned after over two decades in the field is that fear and misunderstandings stop people from making good career decisions such as applying for security clearance jobs. Just like any career goal or dream, you can probably list a few reasons why you should give up before you even try. Here are a few common misconceptions: I have a bad past; so they won't give me a clearance. Everyone will see my personal secrets Security clearances cost a lot of money It takes years to get a security clearance Security clearances are too competitive; they'll never give me one None of these are true. I nsider's Guide to Security Clearance gives you the real information and solutions you need to go after that security clearance job. Inside you'll find answers to your security clearance questions and information you can use immediately. My name is Jeff Bennett and I've been working with a security clearance for decades. I understand the system well and want to share with you my knowledge. I've taught courses in college, given security training to corporations, led security teams, and written many books on the subject. I think you will be pleased with this book.
