Lifestyle Polygraph

A lifestyle polygraph is a lie-detector (polygraph) test that is administered as a requirement for employment in certain fields. Such tests are common as part of the screening process for any job requiring a security clearance. This includes many government jobs, as well as an increasing number of technical jobs in which employees handle, process, or can obtain access to classified data.
