ABSTRACT The Trusted Workforce 2.0 (TW2.0) initiative revamping the personnel security program made strides to implement the process of continuous evaluation (CE). CE isn't a new concept, though, but why did it take so long to implement? I argue TW2.0 built on previous momentum of evolutionary change to capitalize on a moment of punctuated equilibrium while utilizing best practices of designing for new technology. This paper will help to explain why rioters at the US Capitol with security clearances may stay in positions of authority, and it will also raise questions of what policies are needed for clearance reform in the future.

组织变革和安全许可改革：从 2021 年 1 月的国会大厦起义到人工智能的未来

摘要 改进人员安全计划的可信劳动力 2.0 (TW2.0) 倡议在实施持续评估 (CE) 过程方面取得了长足的进步。虽然 CE 并不是一个新概念，但为什么要花这么长时间才能实施呢？我认为 TW2.0 建立在先前的进化变革势头之上，以利用间歇性平衡的时刻，同时利用新技术设计的最佳实践。本文将有助于解释为什么在美国国会大厦获得安全许可的暴徒可能会留在权威职位上，并且还将提出未来需要哪些政策来进行安全许可改革的问题。
