What system replaced JPAS for personnel security actions and determinations?

The Defense Information System for Security (DISS) has replaced the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) for personnel security actions and determinations. DISS was developed to streamline and modernize security processes within the Department of Defense, offering a centralized platform for a wide range of security management functions.

This transition to DISS allows for enhanced efficiency in processing security clearance actions, managing personnel security investigations, and maintaining accurate records. DISS improves upon JPAS by integrating different functions into a single system, providing real-time updates and access to security professionals, thereby strengthening the security clearance process and addressing the modern needs of personnel management.

In contrast, the other options do not serve as replacements for JPAS in this specific function. While the National Crime Information Center provides information about criminal activity, it does not focus on personnel security actions. The Defense Central Index of Investigations (DCII) is concerned with the collection of investigation data, but it does not function as a direct replacement for JPAS in processing security clearance actions. The Personnel Security System (PSS) generally refers to systems for managing personnel information but does not specifically address the comprehensive requirements of personnel security actions that DISS fulfills.
