TSA Seeks OMB Approval for Insider Threat Reporting Tool Public Collection

Legal Status This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.

The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.
For complete information about, and access to, our official publications
and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

60-Day notice.

SUMMARY:

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) invites public comment on a new Information Collection Request (ICR) abstracted below that we will submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. The collection involves the submission of details by the public, concerning potential insider threats, as well as any pertinent information regarding the person(s) involved in the reported event.

DATES:

Send your comments by June 22, 2026.

ADDRESSES:

Comments may be emailed to TSAPRA@tsa.dhs.gov or delivered to the TSA PRA Officer, Information Technology, TSA-11, Transportation Security Administration, 6595 Springfield Center Drive, Springfield, VA 20598-6011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Christina A. Walsh at the above address, or by telephone (571) 227-2062.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The ICR documentation will be available at https://www.reginfo.gov upon its submission to OMB. Therefore, in preparation for OMB review and approval of the following information collection, TSA is soliciting comments to—

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed information requirement is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility;

(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden;

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ( printed page 21832)

(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including using appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

Information Collection Requirement

Under the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, TSA is responsible for security in all modes of transportation, including screening operations for passenger air transportation and for carrying out such other duties it considers appropriate relating to transportation security. ] Under DHS Instruction 262-05-002, “ Information Sharing and Safeguarding: Insider Threat Program, ” issued on October 1, 2019, DHS established requirements, standards, and assigned responsibilities for DHS agencies to implement an insider threat detection and prevention program. This documents also defines “Insider Threat” and “Insider.” An “insider” is any person who has or who had authorized access to any DHS facility, information, equipment, network, or system. An “Insider Threat” is defined as the threat that an insider will use his or her authorized access, wittingly or unwittingly, to do harm to the Department's mission, resources, personnel, facilities, information, equipment, networks, or systems.

TSA created the Insider Threat Program in compliance with the DHS Instruction's requirements for DHS components. The program's purpose is to detect, deter, and mitigate threats that an individual with authorized access to sensitive areas and/or information, wittingly or unwittingly misuse or allow others to misuse this access to exploit vulnerabilities in an effort to compromise security, facilitate criminal activity, terrorism, or other illicit actions that inflict harm to people, organizations, the transportation system, or national security, including transportation sector personnel, operations, information, systems and critical infrastructure. The program operates as a partnership among TSA, aviation, mass transit, and maritime sectors, as well as with state and local law enforcement.

To ensure consistency with the directive, TSA created the Insider Threat Reporting Tool, which collects information on potential insider threats. TSA is requesting OMB's approval of the Insider Threat Incident Reporting Tool as a Common Form to permit Federal agency users beyond the agency that created the form (e.g., DHS or U.S. Office of Personnel Management) to streamline the information collection process in coordination with OMB.

Purpose and Description of Data Collection

The Insider Threat Incident Reporting Tool is an online application where the public can submit inquiries regarding potential insider threats by providing personal information and other specific data regarding the person or situation deemed to be an insider threat. TSA uses the information collected to review the potential insider threats and to determine if further evaluation and follow-up is necessary. The collection may include individual personal information and/or appearance, and the details surrounding the situation alleged to be the potential insider threat. TSA requires submitters to attest that all information submitted is true.

The likely respondents to this proposed information collection are any person who has or who had authorized access to any DHS facility, information, equipment, network, or system, including individuals detailed or assigned to DHS. TSA estimates that an average of approximately 312 respondents will be completing the Insider Threat Incident Reporting Tool annually. TSA estimates that it takes approximately 10 minutes (0.16667 hours) to complete and submit the report, resulting in the annual burden of 52 hours.

Use of Results

TSA Insider Threat Reporting Tool will use the reported information to detect, prevent and mitigate threats. In compliance with the Government Paperwork Elimination Act, the collection uses an online web tool, available at https://www.tsa.gov/​travel/​insider-threat. All submissions are sent through a secure TSA internal network drive accessible only by authorized personnel. TSA will protect the information in accordance with DHS Directive 262-05-002.

Dated: April 20, 2026.

Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Information Technology, Transportation Security Administration.
