DOGE faces its most significant challenge in reforming the realm of security clearance-holders, a sprawling enterprise of nearly three million individuals with their own interests.
The complexity surrounding classified information cannot be found in a single regulation or budget line, creating hurdles that complicate effective reform efforts.
The transition of oversight from the Office of Personnel Management to the DOD has changed how background investigations are conducted, now led by the DCSA.
With growing numbers of security clearance holders, identifying specific incompetence or waste within the intricate system remains an elusive goal for DOGE.
