Testimonials
I love this book! Security clearances are a fact of life, now more than ever, for so many government contracts. Your book will help thousands of companies open the doors to more business as you remove a critical barrier to entry into profitable government business. As a professional adviser on government contracts, this is exactly the book I wish I'd had to advise my clients. The flow of information is natural and logical, you really do answer 99.99% of the questions people have about a process that doesn't need to be a mystery! You include the forms as well as diagrams to make an opaque process clear, and you de-mystify a topic that so many people find discouraging and confusing. I look forward to recommending this as a standard reference in the procurement community -- a work whose time has come!

Well done Diane!!
“Diane has done an outstanding job of taking the complicated personnel security process and made it easy to understand through this wonderful book! She has taken her own twenty-year experience and translated it into a useful guide on clearance processing for anyone in the security profession. In particular, the question and answer format allows many nuances of the system to be addressed effectively. I recommend this book as a must-have resource for the security professional!”
