For reportable practices dangerous to security, who must be notified?

• A. Local Commander
• B. NCIS up-line
• C. Security Manager
• D. None

Answer: (B)

When a practice is dangerous to security and needs to be reported, the proper action is to escalate to NCIS up-line. These situations may involve potential criminal activity, significant security vulnerabilities, or threats that require formal investigation and coordination with law enforcement. NCIS has the authority and resources to investigate, preserve evidence, and work with other agencies while handling sensitive information in accordance with DoD policy. While the local commander and the security manager handle day-to-day security and compliance, they aren’t the appropriate recipients for these reportables that require formal investigation at a higher level.
