What may result from repeated occurrences of unvalidated agency records?

Repeated occurrences of unvalidated agency records can lead to a significant issue within the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system. The primary concern is that the integrity and accuracy of the data entered into the NCIC may be compromised, which can disrupt the entire operation of the database. If an agency continuously submits unvalidated records, it may result in a loss of trust in that agency's ability to maintain accurate records.

This loss of trust can culminate in the temporary suspension or complete loss of the agency's capability to enter records into the NCIC system. It's crucial for agencies to ensure that the data they provide is thoroughly validated to maintain operational access and to support the overarching goal of National Law Enforcement Information Sharing.

While other options might seem relevant, they do not directly address the core consequence of ongoing issues with unvalidated records as explicitly as the potential loss of record entry capability. Maintaining rigorous data validation processes is essential for all agencies to ensure continued access to the system and to uphold the integrity of the information shared across the network.
