In accordance with the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) memo this video aims to enhance the Nation's safety, prosperity, and competitiveness by teaching members proper OPSEC practices and habits.
Ongoing reviews reveal a culture of insufficient OPSEC practices and habits within the DoD. The SECDEF's goal, through an OPSEC campaign, is to change that culture across DoD by reminding DoD personnel to:
1. Be deliberate and careful with all classified, controlled unclassified, and predecisional policy information and proposals. Just because someone has a clearance, or previously worked for DoD, does not mean they have a need to know. You must protect non-public information appropriately when communicating with any party, including ensuring that the person receiving the information is authorized access and has a need-to-know or lawful government purpose for such information prior to any disclosure.
2. Comply with DoD policies regarding public disclosures. Ensure that an appropriate DoD Public Affairs office authorizes the release of official DoD information to the news media, or that information is released according to appropriate procedures (e.g., Freedom
of Information Act).
3. Comply with all prepublication review policies, with which you are required to
comply even after you retire, resign, or are dismissed from your Government service or
contract.
4. Comply with security clearance-related obligations to report certain contacts to your security offices.
5. Review current DoD-wide and organization-specific OPSEC and traditional security practices, and ensure compliance with those procedures.
