One (somewhat) New AAB!

Hello Everyone,
   At our annual security council meeting, last week, one senior agent stated the following as AAB:

      - including uncleared personnel in all security training.

   Although many of you may already know this, I wanted to include it here, for all to see and use.

   Unfortunately, that was the only example given. I'm not sure what the climate is that makes people fearful to share such valuable (and unclassified!) information...

Be back soon!

We're Back...with two new AAB's!

Hi Everyone,
   I'm back from a much-needed vacation! While I was gone, the Quantico Area Industrial Security Council (QAISC), of which I am a member, had their monthly meeting on July 27. They discussed DSS inspections and AAB.
   One item that came out of that meeting that I had never heard before was providing a list to the inspector of contracts held by the company, with an accompanying list of employees working on each specific contract, and the employees' clearance level. This may be a lot of work for many of us, but it may be worth a try.
   Another one: inspections of personal effects. My rep wants me to have proof of such inspections every quarter. What if those inspections are done on a monthly basis? This may be AAB. I'll check with my current rep and see what they think.
   If you have some tidbits, please post them for all to see. Thank you!
