Fix Recommendation

1. Personnel granted LAAs must not be permitted uncontrolled access to areas where classified information is stored or discussed (safes, vaults and secure room in particular). Classified information must be maintained in a location that will be under the continuous control and supervision of an appropriately cleared U.S. citizen.

2. Access granted to DOD information systems must be properly controlled so that any FN granted an LAA has systems access only to that sensitive (CUI) or classified information to which they are specifically authorized.

NOTE: DODM 8570 requirements will be met until full implementation of DODM 8140.03 requirements. Implementation dates for DOD Manual 8140.03 include a two-year timeline for personnel (civilian and military) in positions coded with cybersecurity work roles and three years for personnel (civilian and military) in positions coded with work roles in any other workforce element. The dates for required qualification would be 15 February 2025 for cybersecurity work roles and the same date in February 2026 for all Defense Cyber Workforce Framework work roles.
