Editor’s Note: Theresa Payton is the CEO of Fortalice Solutions – a cybersecurity and intelligence firm, the former White House chief information officer under President George W. Bush, and star of the CBS reality show “Hunted.” The views expressed in this commentary are her own. In July, it reached a new level when White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said that President Donald Trump is exploring “mechanisms” to revoke the security clearances of several former government officials who have been critical of Trump and his policies. According to the Department of Defense, “The purpose of a security clearance is to determine whether a person is able and willing to safeguard classified national security information, based on his or her loyalty, character, trustworthiness, and reliability.” Additionally, having a clearance does not mean you have access to everything classified. There is an extensive process dictated by long standing presidential executive orders that is used to grant a clearance and renew security clearances.
