Operations Security (OPSEC). OPSEC is a six-step continuous analytical process (identify critical information; analyze the threat; analyze vulnerabilities; assess risk; apply countermeasures; and periodic assessment of effectiveness). Critical information is any specific facts about friendly intentions, capabilities, and activities needed by adversaries for them to plan and act effectively so as to guarantee failure or unacceptable consequences for friendly mission accomplishment. Critical information does not necessarily mean CI, but includes all CI, CUI, and certain aggregations of information that meet the definition of critical information. Examples of critical information include research and development information, proprietary operational information, personal identifiable information, and financial information associated with U.S. national security related programs and activities. All personnel working under this task may at some time handle, produce or process critical information or Critical Program Information (CPI), and therefore both Collaborators must practice OPSEC. All work is to be performed in accordance with DoD OPSEC requirements, and in accordance with the OPSEC attachment to the DD 254.
Questions regarding the handling of CUI with regard to the support or performance of this Agreement may be directed to the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR)/NIWC Pacific, OPSEC Manager, Code 87200.
Security programs are oriented towards protection of CI and classified material. OPSEC is an operations function, which involves the protection of any critical information – focusing on unclassified information that may be susceptible to adversary exploitation. Pursuant to DoDD 5205.02E, SECNAVINST 3070.2A, NAVWARINST 3432.1, Navy Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (NTTP) Operations Security (OPSEC) Manual, the National Security mailto:NIWC_PAC_FORTRAV@us.navy.mil mailto:NIWC_PAC_FORTRAV@us.navy.mil http://travel.state.gov/content/passports/en/go/step.html
