The Defense Security Service (DSS), formerly known as the Defense Investigative Service (DIS){Department of Defense Reform Initiative Directive #2 - New Defense Security Service}, plays an important role in safeguarding United States's security. As a Department of Defense (DoD) agency, DSS makes its contribution to the National Security Community by conducting personnel security investigations and providing industrial security products and services, as well as offering comprehensive security education training to DoD and other government entities. To complement its three primary missions: the Personnel Security Investigations Program (PSI); the Industrial Security Program (ISP); and the Security Education, Training and Awareness Program, DSS offers the unique advantage of integrating counterintelligence into its core security disciplines through training programs, policy development, and operational support to its field elements.

The mission of DSS is realized through the expert and dedicated efforts of approximately 580 employees strategically located throughout the United States. Almost one half of the DSS workforce is comprised of Special Agents who accomplish approximately 500,000 personnel security investigations each year. Approximately 285 DSS employees are Industrial Security Representatives who oversee, advise and assist more than 11,000 contractor facilities involved with classified contracts, including research/development. Another 230 DSS employees are Industrial Security Representatives who oversee, advise, and assist more than 11,000 contractor facilities involved with classified contracts and research/development efforts.

As a Department of Defense (DoD) agency, DSS has responsibility for two specific missions -- the National Industrial Security Program (ISP) and the Security Education, Training and Awareness Program. DSS offers the unique advantage of integrating counterintelligence into its core security disciplines through training programs and operational support to our field elements.
