WHAT IS THE SCIF ACCREDITATION PROCESS?

Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility

A SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) is the U.S. Department of Defense’s term for a secure room. It is a data center where SCI (Sensitive Compartmented Information) can be stored, discussed, and electronically processed. While each facility impacts the specific SCIF, there are a number of standards every SCIF must follow. The areas of concern and special attention typically include physical security, acoustics controls, visual controls, access control, electronic, and TEMPEST security.

 

All SCIFs have to be certified to be designed and constructed. This period during which it awaits said certification is called the SCIF accreditation process.

 

The team at ASI has extensive experience with SCIFs. We can help you securely store sensitive information. Our service area includes Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland, South Carolina, and more.

There are several steps in the accreditation process when it comes to obtaining a SCIF. The whole process is kicked off with the decision to build a SCIF. The concept must then be approved, after the need for a SCIF has been identified. Then we come to the pre-construction approval stage, during which the design plans for the SCIF will be scrutinized for potential threats or shortcomings, to ensure that the intended construction will meet security requirements.

 

During the design phase, a construction security plan will have to be presented and approved before construction can begin. Once this is confirmed, security checks will be performed on potential construction personnel to ensure that workers have no previous record of felonies or other illegal activity.

 

Concept approval and necessary checklists will accompany a comprehensive risk management review. Then finally, acceptance of this whole “accreditation package” will be the last step in getting the certification needed to construct a new SCIF.

 

The final SCIF accreditation package will include:

A fixed facility checklist (FFC)

Intrusion detection system (IDS) component parts specification sheets

UL 2050 certification for the IDS

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) certification for IDS

IDS test results

Technician surveillance countermeasure (TSCM) reports, if applicable

Special access program (SAP) co-utilization agreement, if applicable

Catastrophic failure plan

Once the DIA Office of Counterintelligence and Security (DAC) will review this accreditation package to make sure it complies with security standards. If approved, the DAC will issue a formal letter of accreditation for the SCIF.

Trump has a SCIF at Mar Lago

 

When Donald Trump became president in 2017, a SCIF was set up at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, which he refers to as his Winter White House. Trump (at the head of the table with various cabinet members, advisers, and staffers) is seen here monitoring the Syrian cruise missile attack from the Mar-a-Lago SCIF

They need to sign a nondisclosure statement?

 

Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI)

"Does possessing a Top Secret security clearance mean you have a TS/SCI security clearance?”

The answer is No.

As the definition of SCI states, there is a requirement that the individual has a need to obtain the information and is read into the program. It is possible to undergo the Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) required to access Top Secret information without being read into an SCI program. SCI access can also be granted at the Secret level as well.

Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) is a subset of classified national intelligence. SCI is a type of United States classified information concerning or derived from sensitive intelligence sources, methods or analytical processes. All SCI must be handled within formal access control systems established by the Director of National Intelligence. Although some sources refer to SCI control systems as special access programs (SAPs), the intelligence community itself considers SCI and SAPs distinct kinds of controlled access programs. SCI is not a classification. SCI clearance has been called "above Top Secret”, but information at any classification level may exist within an SCI control system. When "de-compartmented," this information is treated no differently than collateral (Confidential/Secret/Top Secret) information at the same classification level.

 

Eligibility for access to SCI is determined by an SSBI or PR. Because the same investigation is used to grant Top Secret clearances, the two are often written together as TS/SCI. Eligibility alone does not confer access to any specific SCI material - it is simply a qualification. Individuals with a security clearance may be “read into” SCI as a part of their jobs. One must receive explicit permission to access an SCI control system or compartment. This process may include a polygraph or other approved investigative or adjudicative action. Once it is determined a person should have access to an SCI compartment, they sign a nondisclosure agreement, are "read in" or indoctrinated and the fact of this access is recorded in a local access register or in a computer database. Upon termination from a particular compartment, the employee is “read out” or debriefed and again signs the nondisclosure agreement.

Once granted SCI access, the successful candidate must sign a SCI Non-Disclosure Agreement and receive an initial briefing. The Cognizant Security Authority (CSA) presents both. The Cognizant Security Authority also must present annual “refresher” briefings to individuals with access to classified materials. Individuals with TS/SCI access require periodic reinvestigations every five years. When there’s no longer a need for SCI access, the Cognizant Security Authority is responsible for debriefing the affected individual. Once debriefed, the individual must sign a Security Debriefing Acknowledgement form.
