A functional, active, and documented OPSEC program will have the following common features: an OPSEC Program Manager or OPSEC Officer appointed in writing; the use of the five-step OPSEC process; an OPSEC SOP to document the unit, activity, installation, or staff organization's critical information and OPSEC measures to protect it; and the coordination of OPSEC with other security programs.
Operational security (OPSEC) is crucial for protecting sensitive information and maintaining the integrity of operations. By identifying and minimizing vulnerabilities, OPSEC helps prevent adversaries from gaining insights into intentions, capabilities, or weaknesses. This proactive approach fosters a culture of security awareness, ensuring that both individuals and organizations remain vigilant against potential threats. Ultimately, effective OPSEC can safeguard resources, enhance mission success, and preserve confidentiality.
