OPERATIONS SECURITY (OPSEC)

Addendum to DD Form 254, Item 11.j.

GENERAL:

1. PURPOSE: This section outlines the requirements and procedures necessary to protect Critical Information for Operations Security (OPSEC).

2. MISSION: To maintain a continuing awareness of adversary interest in center actions and adversary intelligence collection capabilities. To understand the need to identify and protect classified and unclassified indicators, which occur, reveal sensitive information. To evaluate the effectiveness of OPSEC measures taken to preclude or reduce adversary acquisition and exploitation of sensitive information.

3. DEFINITION: OPSEC is the process of analyzing friendly actions attendant to military operations and other activities to:

a. Identify those actions that can be observed by adversary intelligence systems.

b. Determine indicators hostile intelligence systems might obtain that could be interpreted or pieced together to derive critical information in time to be useful to adversaries.

c. Select and execute measures that eliminate or reduce to an acceptable level the vulnerabilities of friendly actions to adversary exploitation.

4. OBJECTIVES:

a. To protect planned operational center activities by preventing the inadvertent disclosure of unclassified information relating to or revealing a possible classified operation.

b. To preserve secrecy concerning specific scenario events and a NORAD response to these events.

c. To identify OPSEC vulnerabilities and recommend protective measures which will serve to enhance the security of future operations.

5. TASKS: Task requirements are outlined in the Statement of Work for this effort and at minimum must include:

a. Release of the organizations Critical Information List to the contractor.

b. Threat information available (Threat Working Group Minutes).

c. Contractor receiving OPSEC training from the sponsoring organization.

d. Specific OPSEC countermeasures as needed.
