What does "your case is in the security office" mean? Is it sitting somewhere gathering dust or what?

1. Sounds like you got the job! Or you could be right and it is somewhere gathering dust?! Is there someone you could ask what this means?
2. I think the only way you will be moving forward is to request an update. After spending this much time (tests and all) for the job, they really should have given you an answer, or an update. Mind you, sometimes background checks do take what seem to be ages - but after 6 months they should at least let you know "we are still working on it" or something. Good luck.
3. To me it sounds like your background is still being examined by the security office. Good Luck!
