A Security Clearance Background Check is a specific group of checks typically tailored to the specific needs of the organisation or often a specific contract in place. The main difference we see in security checks to the full background check is the removal of employment referencing / CV verifications.
This in turn means that the security check is often faster and far less intrusive into the subject of the checks life.
Some names that are given to social security background checks for employment within the industry are: Due Diligence Checks, Integrity Checks, Risk Analysis Checks, Social Media Checks or Annual Checks for your organisation.
Having a smart solution such as a security check integrated into your compliance process allows you to have a comprehensive, unbiased and reliable information base on your entire workforce. This can be built into your organisation to provide a comprehensive annual checking system to mitigate any potential developing risk.
