Security clearance holders must maintain a standard of behaviour the public would expect from someone in a position of trust.

The Commonwealth Government Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF) contains the controls used by the Australian Government to protect its people, information and assets and clearance holders have obligations in order to maintain their clearance.

The Clearance Holder Obligations guide helps clearance holders understand their reporting requirements in order to maintain their security clearance. It also provides advice on how clearance holders can protect themselves online and avoid being a target for cultivation or recruitment by foreign intelligence services.
