Here are the top reasons for marking classified information:

1. Warn and inform a user that an item is indeed classified or sensitive
2. Conveys what exactly needs protection
3. Identifies levels of classification or sensitivity
4. Provides vital information and instruction on when to downgrade or declassify the material
5. Gives sources and reason for classifying the item
6. Warns of special access, control, dissemination or safeguarding requirements

DCSA Review
Prior to each inspection, the FSO and cleared contractor leadership should present DCSA with a state of security briefing to introduce and go over the company security policy. Similarly, the DCSA special agent may provide an out-briefing detailing the results of the inspection.

Training
FSOs should conduct initial and refresher training and file reports as required by the NISPOM. Instead of conducting NISPOM training with compliance as the end goal, the training can be performed as an effective relationship building opportunity.
