-== doesn't match what www.clearedconnections.com uses ==
-The www.clearedconnections.com job site uses:
-*Confidential
-*Secret
-*Top Secret
-*Top Secret/EBI
-*Top Secret/SBI
-*Top Secret/SSBI
-*Top Secret/SCI
-*Top Secret/SCI with CI Polygraph
-*Top Secret/SCI with Full Scope Polygraph
-So that would be 9 levels, at least in practice. (plus "unclassified" of course) Are they just being messed up, or have they summed things up pretty well?
-A: No there are only three levels of clearances - confidential, secret, and top-secret. The information after the "/" tells you what type of background check was required. TS/SCI with Counter-intel polygraphs require a different type of investigation from the TS/Single Scope Background Investigation. The different investigations are usually because you need to have access to different types of information or have special intelligence risks involved that need to be examined for conflicts.
-I have not seen EBI lately - but it means extended background check.
-TS/SBI = TS + Full lifestyle (full scope) poly (the super procto of intel clearances)
-TS/SSBI - Single Scope Background Investigation - standard TS clearance*
-*From http://www.fas.org/sgp/backchek.htm: "Under the provisions of National Security Directive 63 (NSD-63) of 21 October 1991, the Single Scope Background Investigation (SBI) was instituted as the minimum scope and standard for all agencies and departments for access for Collateral Top Secret (TS) / National Security Information and Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) or for participation in certain other Special Access Required (SAR) and Extremely Sensitive Information (ESI) programs, replacing both the BI and SBI."  Thus TS/SBBI is not the minimum protocol for TS and TS/SBI has been supplanted.
-SCI - Sensitive Compartmented Information - additional checking done after the TS/SSBI is completed.
-TS/SCI/CI - Counter intelligence poly - should be obvious what's the issue here...
-Finally - unclassified isn't a sensitivity... that is the default for information.

-== No Eyes ==
-I've seen references in the media and on websites to something called "No Eyes" - a document that is created or during or in preparation for a top secret meeting, but then destroyed at the end of the meeting. The name "no eyes" obviously comes from the fact that the participants of that meeting can say "nobody has seen it and it does not exist" in order to provide the highest level of deniability, even to those within an organisation's own ranks. Can anyone verify the existance of such a priniple, or is it one of those things that is rumoured but cannot be cited as it itself does not officially exist?  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.14.89.251|86.14.89.251]] ([[User talk:86.14.89.251|talk]]) 21:02, 25 November 2008 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-:What's the point of "No Eyes"?  Does that mean that the information can only be delivered verbally?  Perhaps you're confusing it with "Eyes Only", meaning it may be read by the recipient, but no notes or copies may be made.&mdash;[[User:Hydrargyrum|Quicksilver]]<sup>[[User_talk:Hydrargyrum|T]] [[Special:Emailuser/Hydrargyrum|@]]</sup> 18:47, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

-I would imagine that the point is to follow legal process (e.g. getting a FISA warrant or similar) on a highly sensitive operation, but due to that sensitivity the warrant document (or whatever type of document it is) cannot be archived, and is destroyed after the meeting ends or when the operation is complete.

-== Confusing statement ==
-If anyone can figure out what 193.158.84.4 meant in his edit of 2011 March 24‎ 23:37, please restore the following paragraph to the International section.
-:In cases where a country wishes to share classified information bilaterally (or multilaterally) with a country that has a sharing agreement, the information is with the countries it can be shared with. Those countries would have to maintain the classification of the document at the level originally classified (TOP-SECRET, SECRET, etc.) with the appropriate caveat (USNZ, AUSGE, CANUK, etc.).
-It is unclear what is meant by "...the information is with the countries it can be shared with."
