It seems like it'd be a national security issue at the very least. Those databases also contain an up-to-date financial picture of government employees holding security clearances. Even if clearance holders are nominally supposed to remain above-board and unsusceptible, I'm willing to bet that enough data mining would allow decent targeting. The DoD is already monitoring those employee's credit reports, so clearly there must be something actionable in them and it's quite likely they miss something.
