Use of PKI Certificates – Please note that it is wrongful to willingly use another individual's PKI certificate for authentication/logon to JPAS as the certificate is the digital representation of another person's identity. This is considered to be a misuse of technology and will result in a security incident and potentially permanent debarment from having a JPAS account.

Deleted JPAS Accounts – If your Account was created under a previous SMO that you previously separated from, the JPAS Account will be deleted. Please ensure your account is associated with your existing SMO. Denied, Revoked , Suspended or any other unfavorable eligibility No owning and/or servicing SMO Separated categories Inactivity of 45 days

NO Test or “Dummy” SSNs in JPAS – JPAS is a DoD System of Record; inputting test or “dummy” SSNs into the system is a violation of system policies and is STRICTLY prohibited. If you input test SSNs into JPAS, your account will be terminated and a misuse of technology incident will be recorded on your JPAS record.

DSS News/Updates is posted periodically to the DSS website. Please check in periodically at the following website: http://www.dss.mil/index.htmlInformation on the use of JPAS (DSS News 7/15/14)

Industrial Security Letter (ISL) 2006-01, article #3, advised contractors that the Department of Defense designated the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) as its system of record for contractor eligibility and access to classified information. In accordance with NISPOM paragraph 2-200b, contractors are responsible for annotating and maintaining the accuracy of their employees' access records in JPAS.

The Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) establishes processes and procedures for the use of JPAS. In order to maintain a JPAS account, contractors must comply with DMDC's processes and procedures related to account management, control of JPAS information, and system use which can be found on the DMDC website at: https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/psawebdocs/docPage.jsp?p=JPAS

STATE LAWS IMPACTING CLEARED EMPLOYEES State Laws and Impacts to Federal Security Clearances/Eligibility:

There has been some inquiry as to recent changes to state laws and the potential effect on federal security clearances. Please note that regardless of state level decriminalization or legalization of schedule 1 narcotic possession or use, it is still a Federal level offense and subject to litigation under the Controlled Substances Act (USC Title 21). Beyond the legal issues, use of controlled substances may have a negative impact on the government’s risk model for allowing access to classified materials. SOs/FSOs should report all substance abuse issues via the security incident process.

Industrial Security Letter (ISL) 2006-02, also provides guidance on substance abuse reporting for industry.

For additional information on recent state legalization of marijuana and the lack of impact to Federal law, please see the following links: http://www.whitehouse.gov/ondcp/state-laws-related-to-marijuana http://www.justice.gov/dea/druginfo/ds.shtml

JPAS Subjects with N/A, No-US Citizen or Blank

Do not directly contact the DoD CAF or DEERS teams on citizenship issues

8 August 2014: DMDC has been working closely with the military and civilian personnel centers to get the

U.S. Citizenship field updated across all databases (e.g., personnel center, PDR, JPAS) for JPAS subjects who are verified U.S. Citizens.

A request for an extension until 31 August 2014 was granted by USD(I). Please note that DMDC will be pulling all JPAS subjects with a non-U.S. Citizenship, N/A, or

blank value and providing these numbers to USD(I) on August 25, 2014. USD(I) will make a final outcome determination at that time. We ask that you continue to get this information updated as fast as possible so no JPAS subject is negatively impacted.

Please utilize the JPAS Data Correction Checklist as a tool to assist SO/FSO where to update the Citizenship information. Please see the prior 9 July 2014 update for additional information.

The Data Correction Checklist can be used to assist JPAS users with getting PII information updated on subjects with an active or prior DoD affiliation. These records have been populated with a DoD Electronic Data Interchange Person Number (EDIPN) that is located under the SSN field in JPAS.

For detailed information on getting these records updated, please go to the following link:

Inactive Account Deletion Policy In order to comply with CYBERCOM TASKORD 13-0641, JPAS/SWFT/DCII has decreased

the inactive account deletion deadline from 90 days to 45. This change will not affect the current 30 day account lock due to inactivity. Users should remember to login every 30 days to prevent any interruption in access. This enhancement is currently planned to be implemented on 9 March 2014.

The JPAS Account Manager Policy and Policy Updates has been updated to reflect this modification. Please note, only DoD Common Access Card holders will be able to access the original CYBERCOM task order.

Note: If you do not log in to JPAS at least every 30 days, your JPAS will become inactive and you will need to provide current training certificates to get it reactivated

Personnel are granted access to JPAS for the specific purpose of verifying eligibility and determining access to classified information of their service members/employees and/or visitors. There is no other authorized use of JPAS or JPAS records.The guidance to military, DoD and non-DoD civilian JPAS users does not apply to NISP JPAS industry users regarding JCAVS Person Summary Screen Printouts. Industry JPAS users should continue to follow the NISPOM, and the guidance in Industrial Security Letter (ISL) 2010-01 dated January 28, 2010, article #5. (NISPOM 6-104a) Release of JPAS records.JPAS, as a U.S. Government information system, contains official government records. The information in JPAS must be protected from unauthorized disclosure and used only for authorized purposes. Contractor personnel may only use their JPAS accounts to manage the access records of their company’s employees and consultants, and to verify the access levels and employment affiliations of incoming visitors who require access to classified information. Contractor personnel are not authorized to, and may not, release printed or electronic copies of JPAS records to any person or entity. The appropriate U.S. Government release authority (commonly in an agency Privacy Act Office) is responsible for making release decisions regarding all JPAS records in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974.

If a Government Agency asks for a printout, please notify your DSS Industrial Security Representative (ISR) so that DSS can address the issue with that agency.

Contractor security functions can be accomplished without printing from JPAS. – If a visit requires access to classified information and JPAS is not available to verify the visitor's

personnel security clearance (PCL) level, a visit authorization letter may be used. Reference NISPOM paragraph 6-104b.

– Contractors may continue to inform employees of the status of their eligibility and access to classified information, the date of their last investigation, and consult with employees regarding their personal information in order to maintain accurate access records in JPAS in accordance with NISPOM paragraph 2-200b.

– As a reminder, all JCAVS printouts must be protected from unauthorized disclosure and in accordance with the requirements for privacy/sensitive information and For Official Use Only (FOUO), Privacy Act of 1974. Privacy Act requests must be made according to the JPAS SoRN Record Access procedures.

Why the New System? JPAS was built in early 2000 and the software is not compatible with

systems currently used by BTA (CATS, eQIP by Design)

JPAS was initially built for the Govt. and was not Industry specific

JPAS was initially built to host ~45,000 users, but at one time was hosting over 100,000 users, which far exceeds the initial capacity

JPAS is very difficult and expensive to update

New system being built from scratch

DMDC has created a JPAS Users’ Checklist for upcoming changes to JVS In order for the person records to be properly migrated over to JVS, the JPAS team is

asking that you review the company/service persons’ names and update the records. The easiest way to find out if the Name (Last, First, Middle) does not meet the standards

is to pull a JPAS report, import the data into Excel, and then perform a search on the Name fields for the invalid characters.

Names: Certain characters are not allowed in last names: No blanks, no numbers, no periods, i.e. SMITH JR or ST GEORGE, no parenthesis, no

underscores, quotes, or asterisks, suffix should be in the suffix field and not the last name field (SMITH JR)

Alpha characters: A – Z, a – z and Hyphens are allowed
