You've noticed that Sydney has been very unhappy and disgruntled at work lately in the SCIF. You are required to report this information about Sydney.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not Applicable
• D. Only if it affects operations

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that signs of potential insider threat or security risk, such as unusual unhappiness or disgruntled behavior in a SCIF, must be reported to the security officer or supervisor. In a high-security environment, observers are expected to escalate concerns about personnel behavior so the appropriate risk assessment and safeguards can be applied. Reporting this observation helps ensure early detection and proper monitoring, even if the issue isn’t currently affecting operations. It supports the ongoing personnel reliability and insider threat programs.

So, you should report it because it’s a potential risk signal that warrants official review, rather than ignoring it or waiting to see if it impacts operations.
