The Department of Homeland Security is planning a new system to centralize data on potential insider threats, according to a Feb. 26 public notice published on Regulations.gov.
The new system casts a wide net in term of information collection. This Insider Threat Program system of records includes basic biographical data, information from security clearance form questionnaires, government or contractor ID credentials, investigative records related to DHS personnel security programs, medical data, financial data and public-facing social media. Biometrics, including fingerprints and voiceprints, are also specified.
