CI includes those facts, which individually, or in the aggregate, reveal sensitive details about NAVAIR or the contractor’s security or operations related to the support or performance of this Statement of Work (SOW), and thus require a level of protection from adversarial collection or exploitation not normally afforded to unclassified information.

b) Practice OPSEC and implement countermeasures to protect CI and other sensitive unclassified information and activities, especially those activities or information which could compromise classified information or operations, or degrade the planning and execution of military operations performed or supported by the contractor in support of the mission. Protection of CI will include the adherence to and execution of countermeasures which the contractor initiates or provided by NAVAIR, for CI on or related to the SOW.

c) Sensitive unclassified information is that information marked Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), Privacy Act of 1974, COMPANY PROPRIETARY, and also information as identified by NAVAIR or NAVAIR Contracting Officer Security Representative (COSR).

3) Operational characteristics for new or modified weapon systems (Probability of Kill (PK), Countermeasures, Survivability, etc.)

4) Required performance characteristics of U.S. systems using leading edge or greater technology (new, modified or existing)

5) Test or evaluation information pertaining to schedules of events during which CI may be captured

6) Details of NAVAIR unique Test or Evaluation capabilities (disclosure of unique capabilities)

7) Any material designated at Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) such as

NOFORN, and other distribution statement-controlled documents as well as

11) Force Protection specific capabilities or response protocols

12) Vulnerabilities in Command processes, disclosure of which could allow circumvention of security, financial, personnel safety, or operations procedures

13) Details of COOP, NAVAIR emergency evacuation or emergency recall procedures

14) Network User ID’s and Passwords and access codes to restricted/controlled spaces

15) Existence and/or details of intrusions into or attacks against DoD Networks or

Information Systems, including, but not limited to, tactics, techniques and procedures used, network vulnerabilities exploited, and data targeted for exploitation

16) Compilations of information that directly disclose Command CI

17) Command leadership and VIP agendas, reservations, plans/routes, etc.

3. All CI developed by the contractor and/or NAVAIR, in electronic or hardcopy form, shall be protected by a minimum of the following countermeasures:

a) All emails containing CI must be DoD Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) signed and PKI encrypted

b) CI may not be sent via unclassified fax when practical

g) CI in general should be treated with the same care as CUI or Proprietary information

h) CI must be destroyed in the same manner as CUI

i) CI must be destroyed at contract termination or returned to the government at the government’s discretion

4. The contractor shall document items of CI that are applicable to contractor operations involving information on or related to the SOW. Such determinations of CI will be completed using the DoD

OPSEC Five-Step process as described in National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) 298 and

DoDMAN 5205.02 (App 1 to Encl 3).

5. Per DoDM 5205.02M (Encl 6), OPSEC training must be included as part of the contractors ongoing security awareness program. Basic OPSEC training, produced by the Interagency OPSEC

Support Staff (IOSS), can be found here - OPSE1301 OPSEC Fundamentals If this link does not work, please request a CD copy via NAVAIR Operations Officer.

6. If contractor cannot resolve an issue concerning OPSEC they will contact the COR (who will consult with the appropriate OPSEC Manager).

8. All above requirements shall be passed to all Sub-contractors.
