When an employee no longer needs access to classified information, the Facility Security Officer (FSO) needs to do all of the below EXCEPT:

• A. Remove the employee's eligibility in the DOD personnel security system of record
• B. Revoke facility access
• C. Retrieve badges
• D. Notify the employee of the change

Answer: (A)

When someone no longer needs access to classified information, the focus is on removing their physical and procedural access to protect sensitive materials. The Facility Security Officer handles revoking facility access, retrieving badges, and notifying the individual about the change so they understand their access is terminated and property is returned. Updating the DoD personnel security system of record is typically the responsibility of the Personnel Security Office or the designated security manager, not the FSO. The FSO may coordinate with that office, but the direct action of removing eligibility in the personnel security system is not normally within the FSO’s duties.
