Which sequence correctly describes the steps to grant a new employee SCI access?

Explanation:
Granting SCI access follows a logical order that starts with eligibility, then justification, formal approval, and finally training. Verifying TS/SCI clearance first ensures the individual is legally eligible to access such material. Once clearance is confirmed, you determine need-to-know to make sure the access is required for the duties and keeps access to the minimum necessary. After establishing need-to-know, you obtain explicit authorization from the SCI owner/security authority to grant the access, providing formal oversight and accountability. Only after these steps should the required training be completed, so the employee receives instruction specific to handling SCI and understands the responsibilities and consequences of access. Other sequences skip or reorder these prerequisites, risking unverified eligibility, unnecessary access, or lack of formal approval and training.
