How to Lose a Security Clearance - 2022 Edition

If you come to ClearanceJobs you're probably more worried about how to obtain a security clearance (if our traffic trends are any indication). But as important as getting a clearance is the ability to keep one. And security clearance holders and applicants alike have one key strategy to seeing what types of behaviors will cost them their clearance eligibility, and those are the cases brought before the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals (DOHA) each year.
Each year DOHA publishes its security clearance denials and revocations - and each year we unpack those top causes of clearance and denial. A few trends when it comes to how to lose a clearance emerge.
