Foreign contacts should be reported for a variety of reasons. Defense Security Service and/or Counterintelligence professionals can find out if your contact might be a member of a hostile intelligence service. This protects you, your company, and your customer.
In addition, you’re going to have to dig up all of these contacts the next time you need a background investigation; logging them in Compliance right away will make your life easier later.
Submitting Foreign Contacts is simple. In fact, by following these steps submitting any type of Incident is a breeze. Check out the steps below on how to submit a Foreign Contact.
