Sharing of Clearance Information

In an online chat session hosted by the Washington Post, a participant asks whether federal agencies share information on personnel with security clearance. One respondent says the answer varies by agency:

OPM have [sic] the list of all security clearances but not DOD. DSS have [sic] the list for all DOD personnel (including DIA and NSA). But CIA won’t share.

(OPM = Office of Personnel Management; DOD = Department of Defense; DSS = Defense Security Service; DIA = Defense Intelligence Agency; NSA = National Security Agency; CIA = Central Intelligence Agency)
