SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summary of Information Collection IoLS (Interoperability Layer Services) is an application in a set DMDC enterprise services specifically targeted to enhance DoD capability to support rapid electronic authentication for local/non-DoD population persons (i.e., vendors, contractors, laborers) requesting access to DoD Installations. IoLS is designed to enable disparate Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) within DoD to share identity and security related information. IoLS requires personal data collection to facilitate the initiation, investigation and adjudication of person security status by communicating with Continuous Information Management Engine (CIME) on Security Alert relevant to DoD security clearances and employment suitability determinations.
