I required a CI scope polygraph for various things I did during my career, but not merely to be awarded the 35P MOS. I retired in 2013. Some other respondents are saying you have to take them now -- they're probably right.

The CI scope polygraph is the easy one, really not a big deal. It's approximately five questions and they're all centered on intent to commit espionage, treason, etc. It's not the more intrusive "lifestyle" polygraph.

Pretty sure 35Ps take a poly. There are two types I'm aware of - the CI polygraph and lifestyle poly. The CI is not that indepth. I had one when I got to Cybercom and we had to get one to work in the NSA building. That basically asks about any foreign contacts/associates or if you've had any security violations. The lifestyle one is the one they go indepth about your entire life.

I can't see how people are failing the CI polygraph frequently though.
