g. Summary of DoD information system or electronic collection. Answers to these questions
should be consistent with security guidelines for release of information to the public.
(1) Describe the purpose of this DoD information system or electronic collection and briefly
describe the types of personal information about individuals collected in the system.
- To furnish Active, Guard, and Reserve field recruiters an automated tool to initially build prospective Air
Force enlistees for all recruiting accessions in officer, enlisted, and health professions. AFRISS provides
comprehensive integration, interface, and standardization of all programs that manage personnel resources
in support of Air Force Recruiting. The system extends automated capabilities out to the individual recruiter,
the flight, the squadron, and the groups. It provides an automated interface to the Military Entrance
Processing Station (MEPS) where applicants undergo physical, testing, verification interviews, and tentative
job reservation. It will provide an automated interface to the Modernized Military Personnel System (MilMod)
where only pertinent and required applicant information is placed in a permanent military system of record. It
also provides reporting capabilities at all levels of Air Force Recruiting management to make informed
decisions on recruiting business rules and practices to increase the number of accessions.
The categories of records contained in AFRISS are: Air Force applicant processing records containing,
name, SSN, scores on all qualification tests, physical job qualifications, job preferences, jobs offered, jobs
accepted, other personal data relevant to jobs offered, recruiting and processing locations, education data,
dates of processing, Airman trainee history records, and personnel data for assignment from basic military
training. The records are revised with job preferences, security clearance investigations, dependent data,
education, test scores, grades and promotions, biographical history, physical information, drug abuse history,
employment and criminal history, public record civil court actions, separation data, classification data, service
dates, technical school eliminations, separations, honor graduate data, and Article 15/courts-martial actions.
Records for high school seniors who are ASVAB tested and meet basic Air Force enlistment criteria showing
name, mailing address, test scores, and high school where tested, state and county of residence, ,
educational level, physical profile, processing date and location, prior service history, age, sex, race, marital
status, and number of dependents. Officer applicant records containing name, mailing address, educational
level, other educational and professional training data necessary for the processing of candidates for
commissioning as Air Force Officers. AFRISS allows the recruiter to process LEADS; a respondent's inquiry
record containing name, address, date of birth, sex, telephone number, advertising medium, recruiting
program in which interested, and source of referral, including name and Air Force base assigned. Recruiters
create contact records containing success of contact efforts, reasons for contacting and not contacting leads,
type of contact made, confirmation of educational level, pre-qualification and status of individual. Records
also contain data on previous military and civilian history for interviewing and tentatively qualifying a
prospect. Other records in AFRISS are records of individual recruiter and other system authorized users
data showing such items as SSN, name, office assigned, contact information, and date assigned to
Recruiting Service.

(2) Briefly describe the privacy risks associated with the PII collected and how these risks are
addressed to safeguard privacy.
There are two basic risks for AFRISS: (1) risk of unauthorized access to the system, and (2) loss of the database
which contains the privacy data. To control access to the system we use various controls: restrict access to
the .mil domain, only correspond with official e-mail addresses, require a user account that has right/permissions
limited to minimum required, require access via a government issues common access card (CAC), link
rights/permissions to the CAC identity, log activity of the CAC card, and review CAC activity for unusual activity.
We protect the database with various controls: use many of the controls listed above, as well as, encrypt the backup
files on the local hard drive. For off-site backup we encrypt the files prior to transfer and apply additional encryption
during the process of copying to tape.

h. With whom will the PII be shared through data exchange, both within your DoD Component and
outside your Component (e.g., other DoD Components, Federal Agencies)? Indicate all that apply.
