DoDM 5205.02, OSPSEC PM, 3 November 2008; PTSMHINST 5510.27A, OPSEC Policy; PTSMHINST 5500.6 PED Policy What is OPSEC?

OPSEC is a process used to protect sensitive information from exploitation by an adversary. Sensitive information, which is also referred to as Critical Information and Indicators(CII), is defined as information that needs to be protected from unauthorized disclosure whether classified or unclassified.

What is an OPSEC Plan?

An OPSEC plan is used to record, identify and monitor the OPSEC activities during the performance of the contract. After award but prior to availability start date, this OPSEC Plan must be signed by the Prime contractor and forwarded to the assigned contracting official by encrypted email, through the approved Department of Defense Safe(DoD) Secure Access File Exchange (SAFE) at https://safe.apps.mil, or by United States Postal Service.

Consideration shall be given depending on the type of work being performed, the environment, and circumstances in which contract performance will occur. In some cases, an OPSEC Plan will be required. In other cases, the contractors may only simply be required to receive this basic OPSEC contract requirements form.

Responsibility of the Contractor responsibility information during the period of this contract.

OPSEC compromise is the disclosure of CII or sensitive information, which has been identified by the Command and and any higher headquarters to adequately protect its personnel and equipment.

During the period of this contract, contractor personnel may be exposed to, use, or produce, U.S. Government CII and observable indicators which may lead to disclosure of CII. PNSY CII will not be distributed to unauthorized third parties, including foreign government or companies under Foreign Ownership, Control or Influence (FOCI). The contractor shall protect all CII in a manner appropriate to the nature of the information.

U.S. Government CII shall not be publicized in corporate wide newsletters, trade magazines, displays, internet page or public websites. All transmission to personal email accounts (AOL, Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, Comcast, etc.,) and posting on social media websites (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.,) is prohibited. Media requests related to this project shall be directed to PNSY Security and Public Affairs Office for Release Authority.

The Contractor and its personnel should realize that disclosure or compromise of CII to unauthorized persons, whether willfully or through gross negligence, carelessness, or indiscretion, may warrant action to remove the individual assigned or to terminate contract. Furthermore, such conduct may be cause for criminal prosecution and imposition of criminal and civil penalties.

Protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI): CUI is unclassified information requiring safeguarding and dissemination controls, consistent with applicable law, regulation, or government-wide policy. Any attempt by unauthorized third parties to solicit, obtain, photograph or record incidents of loss or compromise of CUI or other pertinent sensitive information related to this contract shall be immediately reported to the Activity Security Manager Code 1120 and the Industrial Security Officer.

PNSY Portable Electronic Device (PED) Policy Portable electronic devices (PEDs) are an easily transportable electronic device, which has the capability to record, copy, store, export, and transmit data, photography, digital images, video or audible information. Examples include, but are not limited to: pagers, mobile/cellular telephones (with/without cameras), personal digital assistants/job performance aids, laptop/notebook/handheld computers, digital imagery (still/video) devices, analog/digital sound recorders (e.g. I-PODs), Fit-Bits, I-Watches, video game devices, USB devices, and devices of similar capability, functionality, or design. Devices that have any of the following capabilities may also require evaluation and approval:

Bluetooth, receive only GPS, accelerometer, altimeter, gyroscope, heart monitor, vibration, NFC, RF, Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi hot spots. These types of devices are controlled and their use is dependent upon Shipyard guidance. Before use, coordinate with your sponsor, who can assist you by obtaining and sharing these requirements/controls with you.

Failure to do so risks security violations for the holder of the device.
